On the first day of Christmas, Joe should run because….

1.) Strong conservative values

2.) Reagan’s tone and style – Treats people he agrees with 80% as a friend, not an enemy

3.) Supports states’ rights – Understands 10^th Amendment’s guidance in the role of states

4.) Supports gun rights – 100% National Rifle Association rating

5.) Limited government – Knows government is the problem, not the solution

6.) Strong pro-life – 100% National Right to Life rating

7.) Conserves our resources – Supports prudent use of our national and natural resources

8.) Supports small business – Believes in small business jobs, not government jobs

9.) Cautious foreign policy – Puts troops before politics calling for the wars to de-escalate

10.) Sustainable budget – Understands that government needs to live on the budget it has

11.) Strong voting record – He has the voting record to win

12.) Dropped the F-bomb on TV – How can you not like this guy?

Joe understands conservatism is a belief in a cautious foreign policy, conserving our resources, encouraging entrepreneurship, and a sustainable budget. His politics and style make him a great candidate for 2012 and provide a path forward for the movement.

Plus, he won’t pull a Tebow and cry when Texas beats Alabama, probably.
