(2,117 posts)The fact that he was BY FAR the most qualified Republican candidate and never even had a chance shows how pathetic their party is. He was a decent governor in Utah, has cabinet experience, and is uniquely qualified to deal with China due to his knowledge of Chinese and ambassador experience there. He's a Mormon but he's a man of integrity unlike R$. I don't agree with all of his positions but he's a respectable politician at least.
