Are there any Republican candidates you would refuse to vote for against the Democrat in November?
Trump: 15% Bush: 10% Christie: 8% Carson: 6% Paul: 6% Cruz: 6% Fiorina: 5% Rubio: 5% Kasich: 5% Gilmore: 4% Santorum: 4% Huckabee: 3%
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
his supports what I have been saying for the past 2 weeks. I am not in the 15% who would never vote for Trump. No candidate is going to stop me rom voting. It is privilege of being a citizen of the USA. So, I would vote for Trump against Hillary are Bernie.
But apparently 15% cannot get past his nasty personal attacks and his pompous personality. It gets tiresome. If Donald Trump would modify his negative personality traits, he could win by a landslide. He touches a nerve in a lot of Americans, like myself. I give him credit for his willingness to challenge the PC culture, and to condemn the current failed policies of the Obama administration.
Was Donald Trump’s mother naturalized before she gave birth to the Donald???
Likewise, are Trump’s three children by Ivana and his youngest son by Melania not natural born citizens?
You are dealing with people who do not understand electoral analytics.
Of course, the other reason they win elections is because their elected officials actually fight to win. The prima-Donald has already promised to negotiate with Nancy Pelosi. Why? Does he expect to cost us the House? Or does he expect to push legislation so terrible his own party won’t support it? Because those are the only two scenarios that he needs Pelosi’s support for.
Again, born of American citizen parents (plural). I understand his mother was a citizen at the time of his birth, but if she was not then Trump is not qualified.
As far as his kids, I have no idea nor will I care until they run for president.
Again, born here to American citizen parents (plural). It really is, and always has been, that simple. Any other combination does not even pass the smell test.
May I ask you, could Vlad Putins estranged love child with Rosie O’Donnell be qualified to be President of the United States? And if so, how do you see that as a safeguard to the highest office in the land?
It means he’s the pick of the cycle. Bet on it.
It’s funny, I know so many people who plan on voting for Trump, can’t stand Cruz and are laughing at the rest.
ALL the media lies, of this I have NO doubt.
Think about how good Trump did in Iowa what with the entire media complex against him, on radio, tv, in writing.
I think THAT shows the better picture.
But in the end, they’ll get Rubio. What a sad joke.
Lol, just one corner of many in the prism of liars.
Screw Fox, I haven’t watched since the first cluster of a debate.
We are losing our country, Cruz is NOT a savior and we are being set up with all the damn infighting. Rubio will be the nominee. They’ll get their no borders crap no matter what WE want.
Sorry Dangus, but I choose to make up my own mind, based on my experience knowledge and awareness.
I refuse to "change" based on the juvenile need to be on the "winning" side.
The DC stables have needed cleaning out for decades, and insiders and incumbents have demonstrated to me beyond any doubt that "loyalty to party" is so engrained in their mindset; that is exactly what got us where we are, where those incumbents (you know who they are) emphasize the essential dogma that loyalty to party is the goal of a successful politician.
I'll go with candidate(s) who honestly and demonstrably consistently choose that loyalty to the American citizens who elected them is the essential goal of public service.
These opportunists hope that those of us who are old enough to have experienced it, know that "loyalty to party uber alles" was the perversion permanently rotting our political system : Courtesy of the Clinton Criminal Enterprise.
Of course the GOPe chose to emulate them, without the viciousness necessary to make that criminal behavior work.
That eliminates, for me, Rubio and Bush; rallies and speeches in Spanish??? Seriously? So much for assimilation!
Throw Ryan and Cruz into the mix and that really narrows down my field of the acceptable.
Just save your breath and spare us you Aunt Esther hissy fits. You're not as smart as you think you are.
A lot of blather about how terrible the Republicans are fir emulating the Clintons... when it’s Trump who campaigned for Hillary Clinton, and gave them massive amounts of cash,
I’m not asking you to be on the winning side... I’m asking you not to help liberals destroy American, you idiot.
Who cares about republicans?
People are fed up with the old parties and the establishment!

Imagine giving this advice to a Republican presidential candidate: What if you stopped calling yourself a conservative and instead just promised to make America great again?
What if you dropped all this leftover 19th-century piety about the free market and promised to fight the elites who were selling out American jobs?
What if you just stopped talking about reforming Medicare and Social Security and instead said that the elites were failing to deliver better healthcare at a reasonable price?
What if, instead of vainly talking about restoring the place of religion in society something that appeals only to a narrow slice of Middle America. You simply promised to restore the Middle American core, the economic and cultural losers of globalization to their rightful place in America?
What if you said you would re store them as the chief clients of the American state under your watch, being mindful of their interests when regulating the economy or negotiating trade deals?
