Top 10 Best Republican Presidential Candidates of 2012
Welcome to the exploration of the noteworthy group of individuals who sought the Republican Party's nomination for President in the 2012 United States elections. This was a year where the political landscape was vibrant, and the competition was fierce. The candidates ranged from seasoned politicians to business leaders, each bringing their unique perspectives and visions for America's future to the table.Each candidate had their strengths and weaknesses, their defining moments and their stumbles. Some might argue that the 'best' candidate is the one who resonated with their personal beliefs the most, while others may judge based on charisma, policy proposals, or leadership skills.

Not even close. Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry, and Benjamin Franklin all would vote for him. "The best government is the one that governs the least," ~Thomas Jefferson. I might add one that follows the Constitution, just like Ron Paul.
The person that the United States, and the world in fact, needs in order to modernize.
Ron Paul is awesome! He is the only Republican candidate with a sensible mind and cares about all people. He is not a religious fanatic. Yes, I'm atheist.

The only candidate that's friendly with us atheist liberals and Fox News haters. He's not a gay-hating person. Also, he's the only one who knows what he is doing with our economy. Lower taxes, insource, better for everyone.
He would be the first Mormon president. It's true.





A young Indian man going up against a young Black man could be interesting.

It would be a dead tie between Palin and Romney. I suppose I would have to vote for whomever doesn't get booted out of the campaign in the primaries, if I were 18 (sighs in disappointment).
He is the Governor of Utah, but Obama named him Ambassador to China.
The Newcomers

This is 2016 talking to you from the future. Not so much.

He is a libertarian who is also an atheist, and he is the only atheist in the election.




Huckabee has great potential. He was second place in 2008 and fought hard. He doesn't come across as nutty as Palin or Newt.
He is the number two House Republican, in case you're unaware.
People will forget about the scandal soon enough, Ensign.
Has there ever been a faster fade-out than this incredible phony from my state of Minnesota? He got his cushy lobbying job, which was all he wanted in the first place. Thank God we elected Mark Dayton as his successor!
