Folks we are at the threshold of a poliitcal revolution that can change the face of the American Republic or, let it continue on as is, into continuing decline and destruction, as has happend to so many great powers of the world of the past, Persia, Greece, Egypt. Rome, etc. It's not as if our nation has not gone through this, already...in our very "own" revolution seeking independence from the British Empire. This was our first great revolution.....led by men & woman of great courage who actually put their lives on the line to gain freedom and liberty for the common man who was being seriously oppressed by the tyrants of the British Empiire.
We only need to look back a bit to see how George Washinton was in dire straits, when he decided to attack Trenton, NJ and, mastered a massive victory over the British. But.....how many Americans today know who Nathanael Greene & Daniel Morgan were. Nathanael Greene became the "favorite" General of George Washington. Greene, a Major General, with no formal military training, having a permanent walking limp, that always kept him dragging his foot as he marched, plotted the two decisive battles of the Revolutionary War. The Battle of Cow Pens (1781), South Carolina & the Battle of Guilford Court House, North Carolina (1781), that ended up forcing Britiish General Cornwallis to flee to Yorktown, Virginia....where Washington & our French allies, defeated th British and ended the Rvolutionary War. Daniel Morgan, a Brigader General under the command of Greene, with little military training, but great fighting experience, pulled out a major victory at the battle of Cow Pens, South Carolina. Morgan's strategic, tactics are still studied in West Point to this very day!!! These folks were the "Outsiders" of their time...just like Donald J. Trump is today......Trump is certainly no politician of rank today.....thank God....but...his patroitic, heart and passion are all for the nation and the all the people of America!!!
Ameica & Americans face a crossroad of destiny, very similar to our forebears, in the American Revolution...Should we just continue down the road the Republican & Democrat Establishment have chosen to chain us with, or should we, once again revive the passion & fervor of our great Republic & change course to a greater political & manifest destiny. Should Wisconsin voters, next Tuesday vote for Ted Cruz....the candidate now bought & owned, wholly by The GOP Establishment losers & weak sisters...or, should they vote for Donald J. Trump & follow the destiny that Washington, Greene, Morgan, etc. gave to us.
Here is a list of Ted Cruz backers you should all study...before you cast your votes next Tuesday: - Mitt Romney - POTUS Loser - John McCain - POTUS Loser - Jeb Bush - POTUS Loser - Rick Perry - POTUS Loser - Cary fiorina - POTUS Loser - Glenn Beck - Failed, Disgraced Talk Show Host - Paul Ryan - The "Obama" Lap Dog - Scott Walker - POTUS Loser
Folks think, long, hard & honestly.....The nation and your future, your children's future depends on the choice you make. I choose Trump...with all his faults, because Trumo has the very fiber of the great leaders, men & women who end up changing the world with great leadrship & direction. Ted Cruz will give you 'ZERO" of that. In fact......Thes GOP (E) folks listed here, will destroy Ted Cruz before he goes anywhere!!!
Really? A guy who can't even get the majority of the vote in a primary is, somehow, magically going to pull ahead in the general?
I've seen that story lobbed around, but it makes absolutely NO sense. Also, it has been used to manipulate the vote in the past. Every time the front running candidate is eliminated on the basis that he can't possibly win the general, we get the establishment candidate--who goes on to lose the general. This happens in local elections all the time.
Bump!
You’re right! It was Rubio. He was emulating (it means copying) Trump, and that’s what you get when you act like an imbecile!
Not only do I agree with your assessment of the Convention dynamics, I’d like to offer these additional points to ponder:
Trump can win New York State - Cruz can’t. NY is a Democrat gimme in most elections. But to have to work and possibly lose NY this time would be a blow to Dems with lasting effects.
Trump can win New Jersey. Cruz can’t.

Well not according to polling in NY:
According to the Siena University poll Trump trails Clinton by 23%. Not exactly ‘winning’.
Another irrelevant and fact free vanity from a Trump supporter. Yawn....
In a kind & gentle way...i amshamed of you. As an avid American history buff....I certainly know who “Nathan Bedford” was. He was a great Confederate, son-of-the-South, leader, a man outside the box at all times, and he drove the Union Army insane with his “horse raider” attacks which were always smashingly successful.
That you would admire and even support Ted Cruz who has fallen prey to the entire GOP Establishment is hard to believe. Bedford would have told Mitt Romney, etc., to take a hike...period.
In the Revolution, the Southern Campaign was in total disarray, with the Colonials in full retreat.....Cornwallis had whipped them handily in Charleston & just about had taken all of North & South Carolina and the British were headed to finally defeating Washington. But.......Washington, stuck in New York dispatched General Greene, Greene chose to activate General Daniel Morgan out-of-retirement, and upon arrivng in the Southern Campaign, immediately split his small army, sending Morgan into South Carolina to harass Cornwallis, while he annoyed the British in North Carolina.
Hence, the Battle of Cow Pens, where Morgan was badly outnumbered by the British forces. The Southern boys (Militia Volunteers from North & South Carolina & Virgina) joined Morgan by the hundreds) giving Morgan the manpower he needed. The entire story of the Morgan Southern campaign is fantastic to read. Morgan was like Donald J. Trump, a leader and decision maker blessed with great intuition & immense talent. Ted Cruz has led nothing but himself in his entire life....never hired one person, never worked in the private sector, never signed someone Else’s paycheck, has been led by the nose, by the GOP Establishment, and will thrown on the garbage heap, as soon as the GOP (E) has him serve his purpose. Sad....that so many great, good, folks, cannot see the forest for the trees!!! GO DONALD J. TRUMP!!!
I would like to ask what laws has the “the great conservative” (Cruz) succeeded in having enacted? What major liberal bills has he succeeded in having blocked? Unsuccessful filibusters do not count. We need someone who can change people’s minds. He cannot do that even in this forum.
On the other hand, I know he was a supporter of open boarder trade bills (that’s when I changed my mind about him)!
Ann Coulter is not a “loser” like Mitt Romney, etc. Like her or not, she is a successful business woman and great book writer...making millions from the sale of her “many” best seller books!!! If you think & believe folks like Mitt Romney are going to be good for the American nation...you go right ahead and cast your vote for Ted Cruz and see what happens!!! All you will have gained...is getting more of the same political leadership and garbage you have had for the last twenty years or so. Both, the GOP & Democrat Establishmenst need to totally destroyed Politically to make America great, once Again. Go Donald J. Trump!!!
Yes getting attacked 24/7 by just about every RINO on the planet, have tens of millions spent in negative attack ads tends to drive ones’ negatives up. The anti-American #nevertrump people have their boy in Ted. Have you noticed that since Romney got involved Ted has become a practitioner of the politics of personal destruction? I have. Romney is Teds’ new mentor.
Poor, poor the Donald. Everybody is just picking on him when he is such a great guy. Just ask him, he’ll tell you.
How’s he ever going to handle being President when he melts down from a few arrows being thrown at him now.
The majority of the Donald’s problems are the Donald’s own fault.
By the way how does it feel to be an establishment stooge in bed with Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush, Lindsey Gram, Paul Ryan, Carly Fiorina, Nicky Haley, Golden Sachs, The Club for Growth and the entire globalist GOPe mega donor class against those of us fighting with Trump to preserve the USA?
Trump is flawed, no question, but he is an alpha, a leader, inspirational, American to his core, and he hates what the globalists have done to this country. A Trump victory preserves America for more "perfect" conservatives to follow. A Cruz convention theft guarantees its demise.
Calling Ted Cruz part of the establishment is like calling Obama an advocate of freedom. No reasonable analysis would bring you to that conclusion.
Listing establishment endorsements goes both ways if you are intellectually honest, and I could easily list plenty of the Donald’s establishment backers.
It is quite laughable that the Trumpkin solution to fighting the establishment is to nominate a man that brags about buying politicians of both parties. ‘That’ll fix the problem, that’s like George Washington dotcha know!’......yeeeaaaaahhhhh, right.....
Are you talking about Cruz?
Sure, because democrat and independent voters will like him more than Republicans. Or so they must think.
This election has come down to these facts. If you support closing borders to illegal immigrants and enforcement of existing immigration laws of deportation...you align more with Trump. If you are for Executive Amnesty after strengthening the border, you align more with Cruz. If you are for Open borders and the North American Union , you align more with the GOPe, and both Hillary and Bernie
Cruz has made his alliance with the Bush crime syndicate already. Fat lot of good it will do him. Trump could avoid it, if he didn't have the little chihuahua nipping at his heels. That may force him to work with them. Hopefully not.
Anyway, point is, Reagan was able to take his case to the American people unfiltered after he was the nominee, and the people responded. They didn't buy the warmonger label, the Bedtime with Bonzo ridicule, the whacko label. They saw a pro-American, thoughtful leader at a time of American decline and extreme danger. Just like now.
Stop thinking in linear fashion and stop letting propagandists tell you what to think. You are better than that, Nathan.
