He says, "I may run for president of Texas. That need may be a reality sooner than we think."

Martial-arts master Chuck Norris has his sights set on becoming more than a Texas Ranger - he has volunteered to run as the state's first president.

Norris, who played TV hardman Cordell Walker in hit series Walker, Texas Ranger, has put himself up for the job of running the region after discussing the possibility of the state seceding from U.S. control during a rant on CNN.com's political blog.

The actor, who is a staunch Republican, insists Texans want an independent state after being let down by the American government - and thinks he'd be the ideal candidate to lead the Lone Star state's revolution.

He says, "I may run for president of Texas. That need may be a reality sooner than we think. If not me, someone someday may again be running for president of the Lone Star state, if the state of the union continues to turn into the enemy of the state.

"Anyone who has been around Texas for any length of time knows exactly what we'd do if the going got rough in America."

I'm actually curious - what does he mean by this?

Still, Norris is a backward, close-minded fool, everything he does is testament to this.

The funny part about Texas being a 'red' state is that it's only been a 'red' state for the past few decades. Before that it was staunchly democratic. The shift to me seems to have had more to do with changes in the Democrats' policy rather than the electorate there though.

Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

he means that Texas can fight back and win... and if wanting a smaller govt and less taxes makes you a closed-minded fool... then there are a lot more of us than you think... as will be shown in 2010 and 2012

I'm calling Norris a close-minded fool not Texans and certainly not on the basis of that quote.

But really, every time a state starts calling for secession I call bullshit.

The whole Chuck Norris facts thing just came out of randomess and his acting career, I doubt all of it came out of the fact because people agreed to his stupid personal views.

In other words, he most certainly isn't popular amongst mostly internet folk for his backward ass views

This whole shit about Texas seceding is hilarious, I hope it does happen

I guess the nutjobs are practising what they preached throughout the Bush era, you know how they kept on saying "if you don't like america why don't you leave" if someone ever said something bad about America/the government

I really hope Texas does succeed so that way Mexico can re-conquer then, and us in real America will be laughing at their failure.

With Chuck and the state of Texas fully in control of their own defense budget, I think we'll have a new super power, and revolutionary innovations regarding combat doctrine as well. E.g. no more bayonets or utility knives; axes and chainswords only; no more JDAMS, or other guided crap; just big unguided kabooms.

I would vote against a roundhouse in my face I don't wanna get kicked.

All this secession talk is stupid. Whether it's Texas, California, or whereever. I almost want to see it happen just so that everyone else can see what a big failure it will be and then people will shut up and think of other ways to deal with the government.

Democrats used to be the rednecks while Republicans were the educated crowd (Lincoln). Things flipped a few years ago.
