Why is it people think man made rules can't be changed?? Amazing how people can be manipulated.

Look at this;

Most answer 40 or 96. Apply Occam's Razor . The correct answer to 8+11=? is 19. There is no other rational or logical answer. None.

We are not obligated to answer the last one wrong just because the middle two are wrong. 2+5=7 and 3+6=9.

Amazing how easily people can be influenced into wrong thinking - wrong answers. No amount of logical contortions will change the factual reality 8+11=19. And still so many will defy logic and reason and answer wrong. It's stunning.

Okay. Well, I never said rules can’t be changed, but the Republican Party is not gonna do it. They might be forced into a revision of their rules to be applied in future elections. Which was my point.

Again...The only thing Trump can accomplish with the nomination would be to expose to everyone that there are rules. And if anyone wants to run for President as a Republican, they do so agreeing that they are bound by those rules.

And it isn’t wrong thinking to understand why they’re not changing their rules. It has nothing whatsoever to do with a math puzzle.
