Ronald Ernest Paul (born August 20, 1935) is an American author, activist, physician and retired politician who served as the U.S. representative for Texas's 22nd congressional district from 1976 to 1977 and again from 1979 to 1985, as well as for Texas's 14th congressional district from 1997 to 2013. On three occasions, he sought the presidency of the United States: as the Libertarian Party nominee in 1988 and as a candidate for the Republican Party in 2008 and 2012.

Someone I'm really interested to see if they run is Larry Hogan. He has a strong history of getting both parties to work together, he took his state from the 2nd poorest in the country to the 6th richest, and turned a $5 billion deficit into a $5 billion surplus. All while dealing with COVID.
I know a lot of people on here don't like him because he butted heads with Trump, but his track record is certainly appealing.
Hogan definitely does not count his successes in the number of bills passed that have his name on them, though he does have a few of those.
Facing an overwhelming number of Democrats in the General Assembly, Hogan made a strategic choice not to place his political fate in the hands of the legislature.
Hogan doesn’t mind that he has few legislative accomplishments to tout.
If he had wanted to pass new laws, he said, “I would have run for the legislature.”
“I never intended to enact a bunch of policies. I ran for governor saying I was going to try to stop a lot of bad things from happening, and I was going to turn our economy around.”
Hogan did wield a veto pen frequently, nixing Democratic bills — until lawmakers voted to overturn nearly all those vetoes.
Still, the governor thinks he had an effect on the bills that were passed in the end, because lawmakers had to pass legislation by a greater number of votes to ensure they were veto-proof.

So, they've redefined natural born citizen?
Because that isn't what it used to mean...
I stand corrected, I guess.

Based on the last radio interview I heard with him, he's pretty much in that, "I don't know if I'm going to run, but I'm definitely going to run" phase.
Another thing with remembering is that he's a Republican that got elected to the bluest state in the country twice while espousing traditional Conservative values.
