My reasoning is that he's conservative and pro gun, which is one of the things I look at in a candidate. Not the only thing, certainly, and I will vote for an anti gun candidate if other positions are to my liking. I can always hide my guns, or simply not register or give them up. None are on any paperwork anywhere.

I don't know how much he would appeal to the left since his track record is conservative and more to the right. Being an actor, though, probably wouldn't hurt. He might get the 4 or 5 conservative actors in Hollywood to support him. I wouldn't look for the Barbra Streisand crowd to be in his camp.
