Let me rephrase my original question to you.... You quoted Trump saying that he does not want people to die in the streets, of what possible relevance is that to anything?

Ah, you have hit upon the question that should have started this whole thing. We would have both saved a lot of time. Let's go back to your original post.

Yea, is a typical politician.... Cruz and his supporters say Trump is a liberal-- They say Trump is in favor of Obamacare-- even though everything Trump has ever said is that he wants to repeal Obamacare- I could go on for 20 other lies-- it is ridiculous- and thinking people are not going to fall for that crap...

It seems your point is "Cruz and his supporters say Trump is a liberal", "They say Trump is in favor of Obamacare", "even though everything Trump has ever said is that he wants to repeal Obamacare", ergo, Cruz is a liar.

And so I replied, "Yes, you are exactly correct, Trump has always said he would repeal Obamacare, but you are leaving out the rest of the sentence. He has said and continues to say "repeal and replace". In fact, he was just recently attacking Cruz, saying he had no heart, we can't let people die in the streets. So yeah, we know he wants to repeal it, but just what exactly would he be replacing it with?"

Now granted, you might not think that is a fair question, but I do. Consider from where Trump attacks Cruz. Straight from the left. So my point is, A. exactly what has he offered in place of Obamacare, and B. if he is willing to attack from the left, is he willing to govern from the left? In other words, will he substitute Trumpcare for Obamacare? I think it might be important to find out exactly where he stands. I am through with our candidates playing at being conservative, only to stab us in the back. He needs to step up.

I understand the worry about voting for someone who does not live up to expectations--- clearly that has happened too much the past many years...

but I don't believe anyone-- no matter their political inclinations would want any American to die in the streets... We have never allowed that.. The question then becomes what will Trump replace Obamacare with? According to Trump, he says he wants to replace it with a nation wide marketplace...

But, I can agree with your point-- let's find out exactly what he wants to replace Obamacare with? and the same can be said for the rest of the candidates... If we had real debates maybe we could get to these answers...
