Paul Ryan's ambitious plan...

He says he doesn't want to run for President and I am sure he means it for this election cycle. He understands that the odds against the Republican are great this time around.

However, Paul Ryan is looking at a bigger picture. He is laying the groundwork for a run in 2020. By simply having his name mentioned as a possible candidate in this cycle qualifies him for a run in the next election cycle. He is playing long-term politics. I believe him when he says he doesn't want the nomination this time around.

No doubt. I still think he is available this year, and yes I heard his speech. Jackie Wilson Said Apr 2016 #1

Ryan is far more dangerous than Drumpf or Cruz, because he "seems" reasonable.

When in reality he is not at all.

This country cannot and will not survive another 4 year term of a republican in the White House, no matter who it is, or isn't.

Ryan isn't off the field yet ... I am more an optimist ... this country WILL survive; the question is, will anyone want to live here.
