South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint (R) is also known as Senator 'Tea Party.' He was featured as one of the candidates on a Fox News segment called '12 in 2012,' which breaks down the 12 most likely Republican presidential candidates two years from now. DeMint has consistently backed Tea Party candidates and continues to catch the ire of establishment Republicans. He is, by far and away, the best candidate for president. As a Senator, he is an anomaly and has proven that when amongst elite establishment politicians at the highest level, he does not compromise his principles. None of the other potential candidates can say that - not even Sarah Palin.
The money quote in this interview from DeMint is when he says, "You can't be a fiscal conservative and not be a social conservative." The logic he uses to back that up is indisputable to the intellectually honest. Basically, the social programs implemented by social liberals have bankrupted our culture. Therefore, clean up the social issues, and fiscal responsibility follows.
