“The delegates, democratically elected, have always selected the two parties’ nominees. The American people are smart enough to know this — you do them a disservice to suggest otherwise.”

It’s obvious by your steadfast advocating for the ‘parties’, that you’re a Cruz supporter. Like most die-hard Cruz supporters, you’re willing and even eager to emphasize the superior position of the insiders over the will of the common people. In aggregate, your viewpoint is fundamentally undemocratic, and dare say I, un-American at its core.

Say what you will, but if the Republican party chooses to select a nominee who doesn’t have a clear plurality of the people’s votes, come convention time, they’re going to cause a rift between the rank and file voters and the party apparatchiks that may never heal, and might well lead to a complete dissolution of the Republican party as we know it.

I can hardly believe that you want to talk to me about arcane party ‘rules’, when those we sent to Washington to be the voice and hands of our collective will, have betrayed us so badly.

You should be thankful that, unlike our forefathers, we’re not already shooting.

Good day to you!

I take it then, that your answer to my question, is "No" -- you wil not support Cruz should he happen to defeat Trump on a 2nd, 3rd or 4th ballot.

So, now we know that the Trump people can't be counted upon.
