A few weeks ago if someone had asked about Mike Pence I would have asked .... WHO  Now that's he is the vice presidential pick and I have had a chance to read a little about him, he seems like a good man. He endorsed very conservative legislation on abortion, gay rights and immigration. I like that.

He seems pretty solid.
Only the test of time proves that out, though.
Not being cynical, just had a bellyful of politicians lately.

Donald Trump has been hailed by some as the most gay rights friendly
Republican ever. Pence on the other hand has long opposed same sex marriage.

Pence's speech at the NRA convention in Charlotte was outstanding. I have been a fan ever since.

Bingo. Yep. Stay out of the culture war BS and on stuff that matters (Constitution, immigration, economy, defense).
