I don't care what party affliation - if your own children won't speak to you then how the hell is the rest of the country suppose to see you as a qualified leader. Heck, say what you will about the idiot we have now - at least his daughters have a relationship with him and attend family events.

Giuliani says he's this great leader and yet his 2 children will not speak to him. To me, that says if Guiliani were to be president and we don't agree with him then he'll abandon us.

That is not a leader - that is an arrogant man who one day will die a very very lonely man

1. It's unfortunate that they don't speak to him...
They're probably still upset with him shacking up with his current wife while still living with their mother.

One thing that Giuliano doesn't have is Family Values, which is one of the talking points that the Republicans fancy them being the party of.

2. I don't know,Reagan had the same problem with his
daughter and a divorce and it wasn't even a blip on the screen with most of his so called "values voters". Don't forget we're talking about the GOP here,hypocrisy is their middle name.

4. One kid I could probably understand
And if I'm correct - Patty Davis was not is biological child.

Reagan had some issues with his kids but he always had a few of them around his side.

3. you are using the wrong criteria
rudy is not running to be a leader, someone the world will look up to.

He is jockeying to be the next capa di capa of a crime syndicate. All this "voting" business is just a front. Whether or not the people actually cast votes is immaterial. There will be an announcement that he won the "nomination", with a big ceremony, and then later an announcement that he won the "election." There will be festivities, maybe a few virgins will be sacrificed, and life will go on. Stop thinking, it is bad for your peace of mind.
