Our primary bench is the best that we have had in all of the year’s of my adult life (and I remember LBJ in office).

That explains your perspective. I don't believe I'm alone in thinking the Bush Presidency proved no Republican, let alone Conservative, is going to be effective without a first rate ability to handle the media.

None of our bench has that ability besides Trump.

Was that "shouting you down," because frankly I haven't seen what you're complaining about. I've seen many hair-brained conspiracy theories get unceremoniously shot down, and unresolvable disagreements, but that's hardly a black mark on Trump supporters.

You are not alone. This race is the media/government complex vs the American People. Trump is proving he can beat the media/government complex.

That’s not shouting, but, you know what I’m talking about.

Even your comment displays my concern. I’ve seen some pretty decent media smackdowns by other candidates, but no one but the D can handle the media. I don’t think that is fact.

I’m not talking about conspiracies, I’m talking about the selection of the BEST candidate based on their positions, policies, and ideals, the last once considered the cornerstone of all the others. Their ethics if you want a secular term.

George W was not my favorite president, nor was he by far my least. You are unfortunately correct about his ability to communicate, but he was an honorable man. I wonder about the D’ s ethical, moral foundations.
