All kidding aside with the world the way it is a Trump - Oprah ticket would be a shoe in. It would be a juggernaut unlike anything ever seen in American politic history. You have the the low information voters of every stripe Millennials, women, conservatives, liberals, North Easterners; Chicago-Detroit...

And for the sane reason voter it would be like being chain to Thelma & Louise’s car they take us right over the cliff with them.

OK, what does Oprah propose to do with the problem of illegal immigration? (is it even a problem for her?)

Doesn’t work as well. Cruz would need needs the ‘outsider’ angle so he’d maybe be better with Fiorina.

But I have to say, as good as Cruz is, I can’t see him winning because of his style of speech. It’s meant to be uplifting and compassionate, but translates to ‘religious preachy’ to all those secular types.

Really, what was he going to say, “No—only another man on my ticket!”

But I also take him at his word. He has a good record of putting women in prominent management positions within his company.

I notice no one brought up Carly Fiorina at all.

I did, on another thread. It would be a contrast as sharp as Mr. Woody and Mr. Wooden in '92 and '96.

But, no way Trump would pick her and no way she'd agree to it if he did.

Oh, and if Trump were the nominee, I’d want to see a strong conservative like Cruz on board with him to both reassure the base and help to keep the direction of his administration true.

No Poppy compromise like Reagan assented to in 1980/

She can say what ever or nothing at all. The Trump backers have already shown they don’t care what Trump does they will back him so she can hurt him there. And the the Oprah followers are the same Trump can hurt her standings no might what he says. The two of them would get so much media of ever stripe the low information voters wouldn’t even be able to tell you who else was running

We could have the Ghost of Reagan running with the recently-naturalized Ghost of Thatcher in 2016, and we still would not vote ourselves out of the situation America finds itself in. The sons-of-bureaucrats would still take our freedom, our property, and our future away.

So, who cares who Trump's female running mate is?

If Trump considers a woman running mate, it will be because she has qualities that go with the job and not because she’s missing a chromosome...

a politician’s stance?

What a politician says his/her stance is and what they actually do is 2 different things. I haven’t seen any politician DO anything to reduce illegal or legal immigration which is what is needed to save America( read Ann Coulter’s book http://www.amazon.com/Adios-America-Ann-Coulter/dp/1621572676 )

If you want to go with stated current stance then Scott Walker is the only one who has stated recently that he will act to reduce legal and illegal immigration . the only even saying he will reduce legal which is also needed (Ann Coulter explains this).

All the others i don’t trust what they say only Trump because he’s not owned. And the other professinal politicians haven’t done a damn thing conservative only speeches

One of the things that bothers me about Fiorina, is that her pin-headed supporters of the unsupportable are going to keep pushing until Trump picks her as a running mate instead of Cruz.

What a tragic loss that would be.
