Some of the data that has been put online the past few days is appalling. I had no idea how extreme the vote theft against Ron Paul and Rick Santorum was. I can't help but think that if had been votes that mattered, Santorum might have had the momentum to get the nomination. With Ron Paul, if his supporters hadn't been so darn nasty and arrogant, a lot more folks would've supported their rigged delegate selection claims. And with McCain? It always seemed strange the he was declared the "prohibitive favorite" after NH, when it seemed that Huckabee was real popular with the voters.

Now we know. It's all a farce.

I'd be totally happy to have Trump vs Sanders as the best way to destroy the system. Would I be afraid of the results? No. In a true debate about the principles, Constitutional Conservatives win, every time. If only we could get rid of the backstabbing elite who steal our votes with lies.

I suspect Cleveland and maybe Philly too will be something historical.

Oh, Cleveland and Philly *will* be historical -- just not for what one might suspected.

I was 7 years old when the 1968 Democrat Convention was held in Chicago. My grandfather lived in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood, just down the street from the original Mayor Daley. We were visiting my Grandfather the night the riots broke out at the Convention. I remember my parents telling my sister and I to crouch down in the back seat of the car as they covered us up with a blanket as we left the city.

What we heard (and saw when we poked our heads up) was NOT good. The police, the rioter's, the fires, looting, etc.. I'll never forget it. In fact, there are still some parts of the near West Side of Chicago that were left as they were non 1968 as a "reminder."

I suspect riots will be the word of the day come July and August this year.
