The primaries do not choose the candidate. The convention does. It’s in the GOP rules. Look it up.

Yes, that’s the bottom line. It’s the American political system. The primaries are assentially informal votes. The votes that count are the ones cast at the convention.

“The primaries do not choose the candidate. The convention does. It’s in the GOP rules.”

You ought to be summarily ejected from Free Republic for holding such an anti-American view.
