Ryan: ‘Premature’ To Think About 2016
Source: TPM
PEMA LEVY 11:56 AM EST, SUNDAY JANUARY 27, 2013
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI), thought to be a top Republican presidential contender in 2016, said Sunday that it was "premature" to think about running for president now.
"I don't" think about a 2016 run, Ryan said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "I think it's just premature. I've got an important job to do. I represent Wisconsin. I'm chairman of the budget committee at the time we have the fiscal crisis. I think I can do my job representing the people I work for by focusing on that right now, than focusing on these distant -- these distant things."
Ryan said he will "decide later" on whether to consider seriously running for president.

(15 posts)RYAN's desire is just like a "h**d job" he wants to blame everyone and then blame those 47% as being takers and not makers.
He "WAS" and still is "ONE"of the architects of our crisis in money management---like two unfunded wars and Medicare Part D and he's in charge of the Budget Committee and he says " I think I can do my job representing the "people" I work for--- really, he sleeps with the Koch Enterprises (John Birchers).
I see "pre-mature" alright just like another typical republican "h**d j*b".
