Fred Thompson video preview

UPDATE: The interview has now been posted!

Watch it here.

Pajamas Media is doing an interview with Fred Thompson, which will be posted tomorrow morning.

Early Monday morning, we will post the first of these conversations, with Senator Fred Thompson. Roger L. Simon and Bob Owens discussed the subject at length with Sen. Thompson at The Citadel in Charleston, SC last Tuesday. See a preview of their conversation here now, and watch it here in its entirety Monday. Look for other candidates at a later date.
Here's the preview:

I'm looking forward to seeing the full interview, as I'm quite partial to his candidacy and I think he'd be a better president than anyone else now running in either party.

Whether he's the one with the best chance of beating Hillary, who knows?

It's still too early to tell.

(The only thing I know right now is that I don't want to see the Clintons returned to the White House.)

"...I don't want to see the Clintons returned to the White House."
Nor do I.
Thompson, no matter what his opinions are, comes across as a tired, sick, old man.
He will NEVER defeat Hillary.
Reminds me of the last wheel chair bound days of FDR - at Yalta.
Is this the best that Bush Sr. can come up with?
Pathetic.

Yeah, Frank... let's ignore where everyone stands on the issues and treat the election with all the seriousness of an O'Reilly Factor body language segment. I'm sure we won't regret the outcome one bit.

You want seriousness? OK:
Fred Thompson's good points are his obvious intelligence, his senate experience, and his stated views on current issues. That he's an actor might help - it didn't hurt Reagan.

Now his negatives:
He gave up his senate seat to return to acting. Doesn't this show a lack of interest by him in national politics? His return to the political arena was at the behest of Bush Sr.'s buddies. It wasn't his idea and it shows in his dreary campaigning style.

He has lymphoma. From my personal experience with the disease (my mother died from it) it can go into remission only to flair up again terminally. The stress of being President is not a prescription to help someone suffering with lymphatic cancer. And despite what he says, his appearance is that of a sick person. I believe he simply will not be up the task of a rigorous campaign, let alone the presidency.
Should he get the Republican nomination, I would vote for him over any of the Democrats now running. But I don't think he has a chance against Hillary.
