    Jon Huntsman or Jesse Ventura.

    Because Huntsman is considered a "RINO" to the crazy right wingers, he doesn't stand a chance of nomination. At this point he might do better to change parties to independent or Democrat. Republicans could pull in a lot of moderate votes with Huntsman but then again the right wingers won't vote for him because of his stance on gay marriage and the fact that he want to wipe clean all corporate welfare loopholes and deductions and phase out all of the corporate welfare subsidies. Huntsman has had experience in foreign policy as the former ambassador to China (a country we really need to keep good relations with) and as the governor of Utah businesses thrived there. Huntsman would certainly be a better choice than most of the guys the Republicans are considering. Huntsman has experience and strong leadership skills, something we need in a president. Ventura is a progressive libertarian. I like his stances on social issues and foreign policy. Plus unlike other more right wing libertarians he supports more social freedoms and economic freedoms.

    I tend to vote moderate or third party. The left wing liberals and right wing conservatives have proven to me that they are not what this country needs. Bush broke our economy and got us into an unneeded war (Iraq). Under Obama racial tensions are now at an all time high and the American people are bitterly divided over everything. Neither of these presidents have shown true leadership. I'll vote for a moderate Democrat or Republican if we have any during the 2016 election but no more left wingers or right wingers for a while.
