New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will announce his run for president on June 30 at Livingston High School in New Jersey, according to a GOP source familiar with his plans.

Christie, who attended Livingston High School, is expected to talk extensively about his upbringing and how that has shaped the person and leader he is, the source said.

Following his announcement, he will travel to New Hampshire later that day for a town hall meeting.

it has more to do with religion than politics


When you are the party of god then you got to go protect the god fearing that got into trouble because of their religion

The two have become one and the same in the US now.

Do you remember "the Moral Majority" from the 80s? The two have merged and there's no difference between them any more.

I hate it when he goes out of state.

I mean I don't really like having him in state either, but at least it's less embarrassing.

Trying to fill his personal coffers so he has some money after he gets out of jail.

the state has been down graded nine times----nine times, by Standard and Poor's on under funded pensions plans,

The state is billions in the the debt hole
http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2015/05/newark_debt_downgraded_to_junk_bond_status_as_outl.html

And on average he gave the wealthy great tax cuts

http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2013/04/christie_revives_tax_cut_and.html

http://thinkprogress.org/election/2015/05/12/3657953/christie-corporate-tax/

everyone in the country knows what happened on GWB

And folks in the state are still waiting for Hurricane Sandy re-build money

But this right wing twit can go gallivanting all over the place---------------just imagine , which I can't, him and his cronies at the podium with a presidential seal, telling everyone
"Shut Up and Sit Down" his favorite sound bite

I hope and wish that this twit and Walker have black and white, orange, blue as their next suits, frog stepping towards a law enforcement car and they can join there buddy Rick Perry, so that there can be a an grand event showing the mug shots.

And just imagine if he can find room and sit in Clown Car" sitting next to Trump and the rest of the closet racists

And the MSM is going to start with Morning Joe or Fix Noise saying what---------what's the first thing you do in the morning governor------------I tune into your show Joe or Doocy and the right wing noise machine begins in earnest.
This deserves 13
