I just got an email from Bravo Company. In it they reproduced a letter from Bill Clinton to John Kasich, dated 1994, praising him for his support of the Assault Weapons ban.

Yeah, I got that as well. We must be shopping at the same places.
I hope Trump trumps him today and this is the last we hear from the slack jawed sissy.
Win or loose, he's staying in the race. Someone is funding the crap out of him. You can see in his face that he knows he's loosing his a$$ in this race but his contributors are throwing money at him. Mitt Romney all over again...
He did vote for the AWB, and apparently doesn't regret it
Q: Let me pick up on another issue that some conservatives have with you. Back in 1994, you voted for the assault weapons ban that Bill Clinton was proposing, which earned you an "F" from NRA. Now, your NRA rating is a straight "A". What would you say to a gun rights advocate who is going to say I'm not sure I like the guy who at one time had an "F" from the NRA?
KASICH: That was an assault weapon ban. I'm a Second Amendment advocate. I don't believe the government should be taking guns from people. I think people have a right to be armed. It's about keeping the Second Amendment and it's allowing legitimate gun owners to be able to do what they want, which is exercise their constitutional right. So people don't need to worry about that.
Q: Do you regret your vote for the assault weapons ban in '94?
KASICH: No, when I look at it now, it was superfluous. We were adding a law that had no impact. And I don't think that's ever smart to do.
But it does appear he has moved to more pro-2A

If you're not going to vote for people who have supported an AWB in the past, your only option is basically Cruz.
It's a sad day in America when the two major guys on the ballot are Barack Obama and a guy who has actually signed an AWB into law.
Yet, for some reason, people kept exclaiming the need to remove Obama at all costs. Before Newtown, I think Obama was one of the most pro-2A Presidents I've had in my life.
Because that worked so well with George W. Bush. Chief Justice Roberts was his nominee - and the guy who essentially ratified Obamacare and magically turned a clearly defective "this is absolutely not a tax, we swear!" into "oh, it's just a tax, it's OK."
I'm not sure if any of the candidates would nominate pro-RKBA justices to the Supreme Court, and I would not simply assume that "R" means "RKBA."
I got that e-mail too.
Not to worry...Kasich is not going anywhere.
Well, maybe.
If he wins enough delegates to deprive Trump or whomever of enough delegates to be the nominee on the first ballot of the convention, then he might have a chance on the second ballot, etc.
It's not about stopping him so HE doesn't win. It's about stopping him so that he doesn't have a chance to resurrect himself at the convention. Somebody is funding this guy to keep him in the race big time. If we can stop him at this juncture the establishment crowd will be stuck with the two non-establishment candidates (Trump and Cruz).
This is the problem with the right: No forgiveness and nobody is allowed to change their minds. The Democrats will eagerly accept former pro-gun people into their anti-gun ranks. They will happily take former pro-lifers, anti-gay marriage advocates, and former Republicans. And you know what? Those people are usually good to their word and they vote the party line. Examples Arlen Specter, Ariana Huffington, Al Gore, Harry Reid, even Obama (formerly against gay marriage). With conservatives, you are either a conservative cradle to the grave or you can go **** yourself. Even if a guy switches his stance and has the record to prove it, he will never be trusted for as long as he lives.
I don't think any of the GOP candidates will nominate anti-gun judges. Even Bush's two nominees ruled correctly for Heller and McDonald. I'm not too worried about Kasich over something that did 22 years ago if he's changed his position. Given that he's got a pretty pro-gun record as governor, I think he's okay.
I thought this was all common knowledge?

You nailed it..as a Ohio resident, Kasich has signed some very pro-gun bills.. Got rid of the mag ban, before you were limited to 30rnd mags due to the way the law was worded, that was changed, and now 30,40,60 or more rnd mags for your AR are just fine, signed into law suppressor hunting, signed into law rifle hunting (straight wall cartridges only) making the 45-70 the new defacto deer rifle here in OH, and last I heard there is a bill going around the statehouse to make OH a constitutional carry state.. OH is full auto friendly. One can check over at Buckeye firearms assoc. site and read up. It just amazes me how people from out of state can bash him on something he did 22yrs ago, I mean Jesus Christ, give it a rest..
The George Soros machine allegedly just gave a Kasich PAC $200K. :(

No, not on deer,shotgun, pistol, (.357,44mag, 41mag, etc) and muzzeloader, were what until recently what was allowed,However, groundhogs, coyote hunting, sure, rifle is fine. AR's are very popular here,for coyote hunting. You could probably use a .500jefferys on groundhogs, coyotes, I don't think anybody would care.
Howdy,
Actually Obama in the only Pro 2A President since Our Founding Fathers.
Whether or not the basement dwellers realize it, Obama is the only President since Carter that has NOT signed into Law or passed an Anti-2A regulation.
In fact Obama is the first President in the history of the USA to sign into Law a Pro 2A law. It s the law that gives US Citizens the Right to carry a concealed handgun inside a National Park.
Before any of the basement dwellers start whine about "We should have been allowed to carry anyway...." that's the lamest limpdick excuse I've ever heard.
It doesn't matter if We should have been allowed to because it has been against the Law until Obama made it legal to do so.
The All Mighty Reagan did NOT do any thing Pro 2A and was the first POTUS to sign into Law a Anti-2A Law. That law made it illegal do manufacture a machinegun for the public.
Heck, before this law, which went into effect May 19, 1986, you could build your own machinegun via a Form 1 in your kitchen.
Big George Bush signed into Law the original AWB of 1989. Unlike Clinton's Accessory & Mag ban of 1994, this was a permanent ban that could only be overturned by a 2/3 vote of Congress.
Clinton...... Brady
Lil' George banned the importation of firearm parts kits with barrels.
Obama........ Nothing, zero, nada. Actually signed into Law the only Pro 2A Law on a Federal level since 1776.
I hate to bring facts into these threads but such is life.
Paul
"I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun."
Says Trump, which suggests strongly he'd have voted for it too.

Trump was even more anti gun before he did his 180 as a pretend conservative.
So much wrong with this post...
There is a vast difference between being pro 2A and not having an anti 2A gun control bill land on your desk to receive your signature.
And let's not forget his EOs, one of which bans 5.45x39 7N6 ammo.
And FDR signed the Gun Control Act of 1934 and then LBJ signed the GCA of 1968 so Ronald Reagan wasn't the first president to sign anti gun legislation.
But to be honest, I don't trust any person seeking political office to be pro 2A regardless of what they say or what their voting record is.
great, now I have this stuck in my head...

You'll get no argument from me.. But you also have to understand that Ohio has alot of urban area's not too far from the woods,Combine that with some trigger happy shitheads from say,Cleveland and it starts to make sense, rifle bullets like a .308 can go a long way..A couple years ago, some dope decided to unload his muzzeloader (.50cal) by shooting it into the air,the bullet came down about a mile away killing
a Amish girl in a buggy... Every year some of these dopes from large city's go deer hunting and will shoot anything that moves. This is one reason why we had those laws. It's also why I pretty much quit deer hunting, after almost getting shot a few years ago,I decided the risk wasn't worth it..
Kasich is a left wing progressive, he is in it to the end. We voted Cruz today, too bad the majority in this country is so easily deceived. Soros giving Kasich 200k? Doesn't surprise me a bit. The MSM is complicit in wrecking this republic. I'm betting Hillary will be in the big chair after the general. Rubio is out now, a good man. Maybe he will endorse Cruz but it's a little too late. Kasich is there to wreck the process. Pi$$ed here.
