Actually, Trump’s strong point is that he gathers all the smart guys around him and finds out what they think.
So, I don’t agree with you that he wouldn’t take advice from others. And .. since Trump’s been meeting with Cruz several times, I’d say that’s a good indication that he values what Cruz has to say.
I think our biggest problem in this country now is the way we have gotten away from the rule of law, and become a country of howling mobs who just want to follow some charismatic guy or gal so that they don’t actually have to *think* about issues. (That’s so much easier, isn’t it? Charismatic Guy says, “This is so!” and you just believe him! Whew, what a relief. No more actual thought.) This goes hand-in-hand with the perversion and bending of our Constitution, that have led us to such wonders as legal citizenship for anchor babies.
Therefore I think we need a person who knows the Constitution inside and out and loves it like he does his mom. We need Ted Cruz. Trump is a great guy in many ways (though he apparently has no filter on his mouth — which I don’t admire, sorry) and I believe that he’s in our corner. But he has a devil-may-care approach toward our rights, and the Constitutional limits of the government. So while I hope he keeps forging on for a while and breaking the PC trail, I will not be supporting Trump in any primary.
As for VP, I’d like to see Bobby Jindal. I think he’d do a great job, and I think his being the VP would “normalize” people of color in high office, so that we’re not continually getting this “first black person!” or “first Indian!” or whatever the flavor of the day is. For God’s sake, people are people and let’s leave it at that. I’d like that to start seeping into the nation’s consciousness. (But mostly I’d like to see him as VP because I think he’d do a great job, he wouldn’t try to take over and upstage the President like some candidates might, and if it came to it, I think he’d be a good President.)
I’d like to see Carson as Surgeon General, and Trump as Secretary of State. (HE would make other nations deal! I’d pay money to watch that! LOL!)
CRUZ!!!! And Jindal. My vote.
Trump
I still like Ted Cruz.
Cruz or Trump. But since the GOP nominee has usually locked it up by our TN primary I’ll vote in the Dem primary to foil Hitlery.
