CSM: Obama’s ‘red menace’ debt is the problem. Can Republicans sell the solution in 2012?

– Washington

President Obama wants to “win the future.” Yet the $3.7 trillion budget he proposed yesterdaywould “con the future.”

Even as our national debt is about to surpass the size of the economy, the proposed budget comes with a record $1.6 trillion deficit.

Kicking the can of fiscal integrity down the road does more than make us a procrasti-nation – it derails theAmerican Dream for young adults (Millennials) like me.

In the next decade, as Millennials are trying to build their own businesses, the cost to service just the interest on the national debt could swell to nearly $1 trillion, crippling their efforts.

The American Dream is being morphed into the American Burden.

The DC: Some advice for 2012 GOP presidential contenders

Bio | Archive

No one vying for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination stood out this weekend at CPAC. The (potential) candidates who showed up — Governors Haley Barbour, Mitch Daniels, Tim Pawlenty, Gary Johnson and Mitt Romney, Senators John Thune and Rick Santorum, Rep. Ron Paul, Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Ambassador John Bolton, Donald Trump, and former Godfather’s CEO Herman Cain — all improved their stocks, but to no avail.

Every single GOP candidate has a fatal flaw among conservative primary voters, especially the ones with the most name recognition. None of these candidates have alleviated the base’s concerns.

For Johnson, Thune, Santorum, Bolton, and Cain, their main problem is name recognition, and at this point, none of them are serious contenders. Trump is slightly more serious and significantly more entertaining but has tons of questions to answer about his political past before anyone buys in. And Ron Paul is Ron Paul.

The five serious contenders have chinks — well, major dents — in their armor, but some of them have hope. Starting with the most chinked, here’s an examination and recommendation for each top candidate:
