Anything is possible when the media is running the show.

Trump just slams the hood down on the talkers when the black woman totally agreed and laughed with Trump. Then they quickly went to break...lol

Black female business owner asked Trump how he will help African American community. He spend 2 minutes going after Obama how he failed AA community. At the end audience laughed when Trump found out she read his books and he said, “ Oh, you must be making money then ..” Good ice breaker before the break

Good question from a black Dem business owner. "Relate to African American?"

Trump slays it ....bring back jobs, cut taxes on small businesses.

Sweet African American gal asks what Trump will do to help minority businesses .....

Same thing it takes to help any business — lower taxes, remove regulations, bring back money from overseas to invest in business .... I mean, just exactly how do these people think? Is he supposed to provide something special only to them?

I think that’s what so many of them actually expected Obama would do for them ....and yet he did not.

Sweetheart, it’s called removing the existing barriers so that you are FREE .... Free to work hard, save, build your business ..... But it’s up to YOU — Uncle Sugar has no obligation to you and never will ..... Better get used to that. There’s really no free lunch.

“Typical Cruz fan..post childish memes on a thread devoted to discussing a live event.”

You just fall off the turnip truck? This has been the case with both sides during events.

I’ve pretty much lost respect for Carson.

I’ve never indicated support for him yet I get an e-mail from him every day asking for money.

I think he’s hanging in this election just to raise money. I don’t think he’s putting much energy into running just milking his supporters.

No. These are questions from the audience.

Cruz and Rubio are not on stage.

I lost respect for Carson as well. That whole Iowa issue and him behaving as he did, when he was the one didn’t handle it well and who started the whole “rumor” to begin with....and then continuing to push it, after Ted apologized and make snarky remarks.

I never thought he was Presidential material and he’s hard to listen to, IMO. Too monotone and soft spoken. Great as a Dr., to be sure and I’m sure he’s a nice man, but his polls reflect he’s not made for this job.
