First and Second Choice for President

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

My first choice is either Trump or Cruz, and my second choice is Gary Johnson.

I have never had a harder time picking a candidate; ironically, this is the first time my opinion really matters (well, besides the '14 midterms).

I was initially for Rand Paul, and I never expected him to be Ron Paul. I did expect him to actually be Rand Paul, though. He failed at that, though towards the end he started to turn around. Alas, it was too late.

I then was for Kasich, but Kasich is a total weirdo and I figured that out fairly quickly. Not as bad as Smilo and company makes him out to be, but pretty bad. The Kasich I supported was circa ~2000 Kasich, not the current "I won't run mean ads/marijuana is addictive Kasich."

I wanted to support Trump, and I definitely think his role in the race is more positive than negative. But I just can't take him serious. I just can't. Probably because I used to watch The Apprentice a lot with my parents when I was in the fifth grade.

I liked Cruz, until I found out that my bosses (who were highly involved in the 2000 recount and were in charge of the RPOF at the time) knew him. Turns out he really is an actual scumbag. I might still vote for him, though I don't like him anymore.

Bush is an interesting one; my firm has his campaign as a client, and I am a company man. But how can I vote for a guy who literally campaigns on his brother's record-which is exactly the brand of Republican-ism that I want to see in the ash-heap of history.

Carson is the best example of a fraud, since, well, four years ago when Newt ran. Carson is the epitome of a scampaign.

Rubio is by far the worst candidate running. Total hypocrite, and a total lightweight. Bad finances. Bad marriage. Bad personality. Hated by pretty much everyone in Tally. Also, he sucks dick. 'Nuff said.

Jim Gilmore might just get my vote. So, I guess my primary vote doesn't matter. I could write-in Ron Paul or Bernie Sanders or Uncle Pat or Howard Stern for all I care. I'm going to end up voting for Gary Johnson in the bitter end.
