Under the current rules, only Cruz and Trump will be nominated. The Presidential nominee will be one of them.

The question is what is Kasich doing in the race? I will answer the question: to be VP.

Kasich is in there to control the delegates from OH. The original plan, which Trump foiled, was to have compliant favorite sons control enough delegate slates to throw the nomination to Jeb.

Pure speculation on my part.
