Defeating Hillary is an obstacle.
The goal is to restore this country.
Make America Great Again!

Are you going? Post a report if you do.
“A lot of Yeb Bush for Pres commercials here in Ohio this week. “
I’m between Cleveland and Akron and have been getting Carson calls.
“I am really pulling for Cruz. But I could vote for Trump. I would not vote for Yeb. I’m not sure who I might hold my nose for.”
Concur. Cruz, Trump, no Jeb. I’m done holding my nose. I’ll write in Cruz if necessary.
Exactly, and either of those two teams will do it.
Polling is subject to be in error sometimes large errors. Yes polling techniques change
and have to be adapted to by all polling companies. For sure you are likely to get a
different demographic with online versus live calls thus the results will differ.
We’ll see how this turns out before much longer. Take care.
I hear that.
We’re in tough times.
“Just wait until the next debates, everyone’s going to see how shallow he is on foreign policy then! Yeah, that’s the ticket.”
And then it won’t happen (yet again) and they’ll go back to talking about how stupid the American voters are, especially Republicans. Those dumb voters just can’t see how superior Jeb is to that nasty old Trump.
Considering it. Bit of a drive and parking a problem.
World affairs can have an impact on the primaries. McCain was running in the back of the pack before some crap happened overseas a month before Iowa and New Hampshire.
All FReepers should know, Conservatives have been saying for years, and real patriotic Americans know, AMERICANS LIKE STRONG LEADERSHIP. Americans want real people that aren’t afraid of their own values, opinions and ambitions. Americans respect confidence. Above all, more than any other culture in the world, Americans are results orientated (maybe in competition with Germans). That has not gone completely yet. So the mystery of Trump’s success thus far shouldn’t be.
He talks bold and is unafraid to speak what he believes. His boastful tener has some validity as a business mogul. He has a reputation of both taking charge and producing results. He is a leader. He is not shy about it. He doesn’t pander.
THAT’S why he resonating so well with ALL voters, not just Republicans/Conservatives. Put aside his past (not Conservative) for a minute and just analyze the character. This is what we have been predicting would be the successful persona for America. Ironically, on the other side of the same coin, you have Bernie Sanders.
This post does not address Trump’s intentions (stated or otherwise) for the future of this country. I am not addressing his patriotism or liberal past. I am only talking about the character (passion, charisma, stature, confidence) that appeals to Americans. It’s been since Reagan that we had some one like this as an option. And more people are paying attention these days than in many decades.
“Why is the media giving 75% of the coverage to the most UNORIGINAL and MENTALLY UNSTABLE candidate? Why are they not mentioning his LONG LONG HISTORY OF IDIOCY.”
I’m sure if Trump got to know you, he’d think the same about you.
I think that concern could be why he might not pick Cruz for VP. As you say, not because he agrees with that necessarily, or likes it, but could not deal with the attacks.

Had a chat with a lib friend. He couldn’t believe I was for Trump. I informed him that I had been pushing, for many years, for a real businessman to be President. Myu friend said that he had no political experience. I told him that Trump understood politics and politicians very well! That he’d been buying and selling them, and bending them to his will for decades!
I was even a Perot guy for a couple weeks! I have this mental cartoon of Ross dashing around the Presidential desk squeaking, “Veto! Veto! We can’t afford that! Veto!”
Be careful you may be getting ahead of yourself here this result does not meet your headline. Trump is ahead but others are not that far behind. The only polls that truly matters are the actual primary votes. See below for PPP national result.
PPP’s first look at the Republican Presidential race nationally in six weeks finds that things haven’t actually changed all that much since early October. Donald Trump leads the field with 26%, to 19% for Ben Carson. Trump and Carson were first and second on our last poll as well at 27% and 17% respectively. Also getting solid amounts of support are Ted Cruz at 14% and Marco Rubio at 13%. No one else in the GOP field even gets more than 5%- Jeb Bush reaches that mark followed by Carly Fiorina and Mike Huckabee at 4%.
Where’s Geronl AKA Karl Rove?
I think that The Donald is the battering ram needed to blow down the doors. He can get democrat votes because of his celebrity status and name recognition. I am hoping he chooses The Ted as his VP and chief adviser. After four years of The Donald causing the media to have one melt-down after another, The Ted can take over the program.
