If St. FrothyMix gets the nomination he might even lose bigger than Goldwater did in 1964.

They want to use the presidency to impose narrow, outdated worldviews on the US as a whole. From statements they have made, both seem ready and willing to far overreach presidential powers, or at least use presidential powers in ways that go beyond how they have been used. Shrub's imperial presidency would be mildly imperial compared to what these two envision. But strange, too, is the states' rights rhetoric the two use. They want to become dictator of the US on a platform built in part on "state's rights." Frightening, the both of them.
