Bachmann pushes for a future where America is run by Rep. Steve King and his allies.



While denying any plans to seek the presidency herself in 2012, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has made no secret of her “high opinion” of right-wing colleague Rep. Steve King (R-IA) as a “potential nominee.” While headlining a fundraiser on Saturday for Iowa Attorney General candidate and King’s former chief of staff Brenna Findley, Bachmann expanded on her national design by plugging King and his political family as the future of the federal government:

“Who would you like to see nominated to the Supreme Court – Elena Kagan or Brenna Findley?” Bachmann said, prompting applause. “I knew you were smart. And when Steve King is president, he can appoint her.”


Findley, who spent seven years serving King, has deemed the federal health care reform law as “an abuse of power” and vowed to join other conservative attorneys general in their challenge against it. King not only voted against a relief aid for Hurricane Katrina victims, but touted it as “the best vote that I cast.” His current idea for immigration reform? “Everytime we give amnesty for an illegal, we deport a liberal.”
