Did I get “your” point? I thought you were extracting something from somebody else.

You apparently want the rule changed from majority to plurality. To advocate this change in our Republican rules, you cite a Democratic Party convention of 1924. I realize that Trump used to be a Democrat, but I didn’t think he went that far back. We Republicans have always had a majority rule and we have had multiple ballots in the past to achieve a majority, just not recently.

Since you say “They [the Republicans gathered in convention] haven’t changed them [the rules] drastically,” I gather you think changing the rules from majority to plurality isn’t “drastic.” That wouldn’t be Trump “stealing” the nomination. You think playing by the (current) rules is “stealing.”

To have come this far are great accomplishments already for both Trump and Cruz. They are in the Final Four in a tournament bigger than the NCAAs.
