Even The Washington Post understands the difference between Republican presidential contenders and those vying for the Democratic party nomination (for example, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden). The Post recently reported that the 15 noteworthy contenders for the GOP presidential nomination own a total of 40 guns between them, and most are A-rated by NRA-PVF.

After six years of President Barack Obama’s anti-gun influence, electing a pro-gun rights president next year should be at the top of every gun owner’s priority list. Those interested can hear 11 of the Republican hopefuls speak next Friday morning at the NRA-ILA Leadership Forum at the NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Nashville, Tenn.
