No. It is the grass roots activists who have been making the rules. They made the rules that got us the House and increased the numbers there. They made the rules that got us the Senate and are desperately trying to secure it...no thanks to Donny the Demonrat Donor.

The GOPe isn't making the rules in most of these states anymore. They (GOPe) have become victims of a giant enema.

Well deserved and growing.

The people running the show in most of these states now are Tea-Party/conservative base activists.

ALL YOUR DELEGATES ARE BELONG TO US....

Jedi.

Those who take an ACTIVE part in the process over time get to make the rules.

Maybe the rules should be listed individually on the primary ballot.

I am starting to hope Cruz swindles this thing so I can stay home and watch him crash and burn and take the whole GOPe down with him. Can you say President Hitlery? I think you can.

In the nearly three decades that Trump’s been toying with presidential runs, has he made even a nominal effort to get involved and change what he’s now whining about?

So you are perfectly fine with illegal aliens showing up and being able to vote even despite the rules? Right? Suppose you tell me why that might be wrong under your logic about standing rules. After all, to allow them to vote would be in the tradition of democracy and maximum participation.

And who should make the rules for selecting a Republican Party candidate: the Democrats? Those who do not profess to be a part of the Republican Party? Independents?

If Trump wanted to be independent, he should have run as one. He is trying the represent the Republican Party. They should be able to control their selection process.
