I remember way back in the ‘90s the first saw the Clintons on TV. I had a bad feeling about them, but I didn’t know why even though people around me thought they were the best thing since sliced bread. Of course, later my gut feeling was confirmed.

My gut feeling said Bush 41 was bad and now I understand why. I wasn’t even in to politics at that time.

Bush 43 in my opinion, is a decent guy, but didn’t have the backbone to be Prez, but he was the lesser of two evils. He just followed orders from his father and advisors. We can see what that wrought.

And Obama? Bad gut feeling backed up by my own research led me to believe he was going to be a HORRIBLE Prez. And so far to this point he has been.

My gut feeling on Trump and Cruz? Both are better than the Dem candidates, but Trump says things more from the heart that resonate with a lot of people, but he isn’t a conservative. Cruz to me seems a bit more conservative by what I hear him say, but I can’t shake my negative gut feeling about him that I can’t quite put my finger on.

I think Cruz is less emotional and really takes time to think out about what he’s going to say and do. The two of them with Cruz and prez and Trump and VP would make a good team in order to deal with both domestic and foreign problems.

Do they really care about America and Americans? Much more than the Dems, but they have their own agendas.

I’d really like to know if either are members of the Bohemian Grove.

My 4 year College Degree was a sham too.

This TRUMP product his customers were buying was "as is", or subject to all defects that may exist. The same thing applies to the "CUSTOMERS" who may be in the process of "BUYING" him for their President.

I don't care who you are. That right there is funny.

Full disclosure, I'm pro-Trump. But this Trump University thing is a blot on his record.

This raises a lot of questions. For his own good, this Trump stain needs to be removed from his record.

I want everyone to notice that all these smear articles are coming from August...

And why? In August Jeb Bush and Scott Walker’s OPPO teams dumped tons of old dirt on Trump trying to stop him. All of these articles are GOPe hit pieces.

If the best the Cruz team has is re-hashed OPPO that we’ve all seen before then they are SCREWED.

"Such allegations of multi­million-dollar fraud might sink other candidates, but in Trump’s case, even some of the students who felt duped said they haven't given up on him: They like Trump. They admire him. They might even vote for him.

"He says what he means, not like politicians, not like Obama," said Louie Liu of Hurst, Tex.

Not even close. Litigating is just starting. You might want to read the article.

I read them when they came out, and so did you, but you've already proven yourself to be too deranged to look at anything objectively.

Well, look into it. I have, there’s nothing there. Just some DA trying to, and getting, headlines. WAY old news, and the damages that would have been collect for the few qualified plaintiffs were lunch money.

The same Trump who promises universal health care to everyone with the government paying for it.

Trump was a con-artist? He told people one thing and did something different? I couldn’t have seen that coming/s/

Trump University's books on Real Estate and building passive income are pretty solid in my opinion.

Any collection of books that cost $35,000 has to be REALLY good. Probably THE BEST BOOKS EVER!!!

$35,000 for no useful education?

American universities - in collusion with the Fed - have turned out thousands of graduates with zero useful education - and the proud students paid over 100 grand each! Why pick on Trump?
