I have to say, if it ends up Trump verses Obama, I’d vote for Trump, and I think he’d come through with what he is saying.

“If I run and if I win,” he said, “this country will be respected again. I can tell you that.”

“The United States has become a whipping post for the rest of the world,” he said. “The world is treating us without respect — they are not treating us properly.”

    Baptist Archbishop Walter Dixon Commentary Challenging Donald Trump To Put Up or Shut Up As A Possible GOP Presidential Candidate.

    Archbishop Walter Dixon of Atlanta, GA says Donald TrumpCan’t Come close To Defeating President Barack Obama in the 2012 Presidential election. He needs to stick to what he knows best; which is enjoying being a spender of other people’s money and trying to increase his celebrity status and television show rating.

    Donald Trump, you should be ashamed of yourself to use President Obama’s birth place (which is in the United States) as a means of staying in the eyes of the media. You also attempted to ride on the Presidents coattail when you indicated that you both were born on the same day. If this is all you have to run on, get out while you’ve enjoyed your one minute of national fame. Aside from the rhetoric and non-issues that you speak about with regard to the President, what do you bring to the table?

    I look forward to you using the media to publicly share your realistic response to the questions listed below that are of substance and of interest to many Americans across this great nation.

    If you decide to run, what will be your platform?
    So many Americans are out of work and looking for jobs. The unemployment rate as of March 2011 was 9.2%. What will you do to decrease unemployment? What plan do you bring to the table to assist Americans over the age of 50 in finding employment?
    What will you do to decrease crime across America?
    Many Americans have lost their homes, what will you do to stop the high volume of foreclosures?
    What will you do to bring back fortune 500 manufacturing plants to this country from overseas and what is your plan to ensure that the manufacturing plants that remain here, stay here?
    What will you do to help provide business loans to minorities?
    What will you do to decrease the National debt?
    Will you provide full transparency of all your personal and business tax records covering the last ten years?
    Will you provide a certified copy of your birth certificate?
    What will you do to assist ex-felons in getting employment? Lord knows they are trying to fulfill their probationary requirements and/or their basic needs of finding a job; however our Justice System punishes women and men twice for their mistakes. After an ex-felon has paid their debt to society and tries to find a job, many corporations won’t hire them because of their felony record. All Americans should have an opportunity to work regardless of their past mistakes. Do you believe in restitution? Would you hire an ex-felon to work for any of your companies?
    Where do you stand on illegal immigration?
    What will you do to cease the high cost of gasoline prices?
    What will you do to increase the appointment of African Americans to the United States Supreme Court?
    What would you do to stop the bickering between the Republican and Democratic parties and help them to understand that voters sent them to Washington, DC to represent their interest?
    The President has indicated that he has an “Open Door Policy” and if any American has a better way, he is open to hearing it. Have you sat down with the President and shared your views & possible solutions to make America better or are you just a sounding brass, or a tinkling symbol?
    President Obama has worked and is continuing to diligently work with Corporate America, Congress and the Senate in fixing the above and more. He has proven his ability to lead this nation from its worst crisis in recent years, all of which was created by 8 years of greed and financial irresponsibility under a Republican Administration. It took 8 years to get us into this mess; at least President Obama has made headway in resolving our economic downturn. As the saying goes, “Rome wasn’t built in a day,” but since you’ve announced seriously considering running as a GOP candidate in the 2012 Presidential race & you don’t support the President, please tell us all what your possible solutions are to the issues that concern us all?

    President Barack Obama is the candidate that will put Americans back to work and he is the leader that will continue to bring prosperity to America. I will continue to support our leader, President Barack Obama beyond the years of 2016.

    Waiting patiently for your response,

    Archbishop Walter Dixon
