NEW POLL OVERVIEW:<br />
----------------------------<br />
<br />
Potential Republican Presidential candidates are already jockeying for position and funding after we have just concluded the 2014 elections.<br />
<br />
The monied interests are already putting their support behind the candidate that will best serve their interests.<br />
<br />
We are also hearing that we need a middle of the road candidate again because a conservative can't win and we have to move to the middle to be successful. We know how well that has worked in the last two elections!<br />
<br />
The current front runners are Mitt Romney, Chris Christie, and Jeb Bush.<br />

TWO COMMENTS WERE MADE ON THIS POLL:<br />
-------------------<br />
COMMENT #1<br />
<br />
2nd Amendment<br />
<br />
We have the God given right to keep and bear arms. That is end of the discussion. NO govt. entity has the right to restrict our rights to keep and bear arms or the right to purchase the ammo. that is required for that firearm. States should exert their rights, also. The Feds. have very limited powers according to our Constitution.<br />

Ignore Federal Gun Laws<br />
<br />
In my opinion and in the opinion of many legal minds...these laws are unconstitutional. Time for the states to exert some energy and push back against all unconstitutional laws.<br />
