Donald Trump for President?

Donald Trump for President? He is currently leading in the Republican polls.  Is he leading in the Republican polls because that many people think he would be a great president?  Or is he leading in the Republican polls because many people will vote for anyone who runs against Barack Obama?

Donald Trump has been very successful with his businesses, and he’s proven himself to be a great leader among his own.  But whether he would be a great president for this country is up for debate.  For one thing, his opinions about how to deal with the Libyan crisis has raised more than a few eyebrows.  He seems to think America should swoop in and take over Libya’s oil.  In fact, he intimidated in a recent interview that in the old days when you win a war you take over that country and its assets.  I hope most Americans don’t agree with Donald Trump’s heavy handed approach.

It seems that Donald Trump has come out on top so many times, that he just doesn’t realize there can be dire consequences to some actions.  He’s so used to winning that it’s gone to his head.  Some of his ideas are good, and many of his statements are true.  His idea that the United States is not the country it once was is very true.  But the kind of leader we need to bring this country back to greatness is definitely not someone whose ideas lean towards Imperialism.
