This is a nationalist movement. The election rests on whether Obama has sufficiently lowered the national self-esteem to the point of revolt.

Hillary is the status quo. Trump represents the movement. All other factors, like abortion and gay rights be damned.

Probably time to take your anti Trump pap and hit the road.

I didn’t read it because you would rather help Hillary.

One needed reform for the elective process (in addition to general Demonicrat election fraud), is to allow each voter a complete vote for each elective office, rather than the effective “half-vote” one gets now. Currently a voter can only vote for one or another candidate for a elective office. This denies the voter the right to vote against one or another candidate (similar to voting against, rather than for, a proposition or bond issue).

In a rightful and complete election process the voter should be able to cast one vote for or against one candidate of his choice. For each candidate the number of negative votes are subtracted from the number of positive votes and the candidate with the more positive net number of votes wins.

In such a rightful and complete election, it is possible that with unpopular (or unworthy) candidates on the ballot, more negative votes would be cast against either, resulting in one candidate winning with a less negative net number of votes.

For this reason, corrupt politicians will never approve an election system allowing a voter to cast a negative vote against a candidate the voter considers to be undeserving.

If Trump REALLY, REALLY wants to win, he will pound her in a landslide.

I’ve said it before:
It is accepted that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results....If this is true, then it is INSANE to NOT vote for Trump.

Voters actually love Trump. Talked to people who have come over to Trump, from the Cruz camp last night. They are now involved in the Trump campaign.

Nonsense. People are EXCITED to vote for Trump because he represents America First, America Wins!

This is just another liberal trying to trivialize America!

Charter Member of "The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy", so I'd vote for ANYONE (except possibly the antiCHRIST 0bama) before I'd vote for Madam Benghazi!
