The problem is that a Presidential candidate cannot go shooting off his mouth. When a candidate speaks it must be clear and only have the ambiguity intended.

This remark was therefore non-presidential material. It was crass and its ambiguity, a wide open door to his opponents.

I don’t really see this remark as crass or ambiguous. I will agree he didn’t need to say it.

Megyn is playing the victim, but she didn’t mind the crude things Howard Stern said to her and she went on to talk about her private sexual life on his show. She’s only upset by Donald.

As far as giving anything to your opponents, it doesn’t matter if it is true.

There is no finer man up on that stage than Ben Carson. I attended a speech he gave and learned how someone was playing dirty tricks on him. He was smart and nipped it fast.

Donald is a bigger target. Most of us aren’t as good as Ben so they will dig up things that were pretty innocuous at the time and try to make them into much bigger issues with Donald Trump.

Only Dems and RINOs get a free pass.

It appears to have that effect. His opponents include RedState, Erick Ericksom, FoxNews, Megyn Kelly, and a host of others.

Obama has lowered the bar on that one. He says and does anything he wants to do, so why can’t Trump as well?

How do you define presidential material? Is it what Americans have seen for decades now?

Trillions in debt, China and the rest killing us, Mad Magazine style trade/foreign/economic policies, upwards of 30 million illegals in country while politicians struggle to out do each other pandering speeches in Spanish?

Good presidential material? This is the kind of leadership we need? Are we supposed to be more concerned with leaders having polished polite etiquette with an upper crust refined country club demeanor?
