Recruit Lance Armstrong!
Lance Armstrong would be a wonderful American Leader. This is a thought that has been percolating in my head ever since July of 2004, but with increasing intensity since June of 2005. Now that Lance has all but cemented his place as the top Cyclist of all time with another personal & world record 7th Tour de France win, if he chooses the Right, he could be a wonderful patriot. Lance Armstrong is to cycling as America is to the world since Reagan's Conservative revolution qualified America for greatness and God's blessings once again. We overcame Soviet Communism (thanks to Ronald Wilson Reagan, fellow Conservative Republican Patriots, and our God) and have been the lone world superpower ever since (Hyperpower according to les Francais). Lance's faith in himself (and presumably God, although I know nothing of Lance's religious beliefs) overcame testicular cancer and has dominated the world of cycling ever since.
1) As a successful Texan, he would win take Texas' electoral votes.
2) His amazing story of never giving up, overcoming incredible obstacles, and ending on top of the world resonates with Republican, Conservative, American ideals and ideology. His story brings to mind Reagan's triumph over global Soviet Communism.
Unlike the American Left, instead of blaming everyone else for his problems he did all he could to, and one can only assume that he asked God for help as well. There is no doubt that God helped him recover as his recovery was an absolute miracle. I can imagine that Lance exercised an immense amount of Faith, and the Lord blessed him to recover.
He could have blamed his anything and everything for his misfortune like an good little American Liberal (John Kerry & Al Gore, anyone?). Instead, he fought like a true child of God and with his Heavenly Father's help, made himself into a worldwide Icon of American dominance, just like Ronald Reagan.
3) Even though his achievement is in a sport which Americans don't pay much attention to, his story is transcendental in nature (due to the absoluteness of his dominance in the sport) and Lance engenders respect from every American who knows the whole story.
4) Lance probably wouldn't choose to be a Democrat since he seems to believe in:
a) Personal Responsibility
b) The Sanctity of Life
c) American greatness
d) Capitalism
e) Being a nice person
f) The Law of the Harvest
...and he doesn't seem to believe that:
a) America is wrong & always to blame
b) Bush=Hitler
c) France is superior to America (although as I do, he both speaks French & loves the good in France)
If all these things are true, and he ever shows an interest in politics, he will undoubtedly join President George W. Bush as yet another great Texas Republican.
