So far Trump is ahead of the pack but victory is not certain with the rules the GOPe has put in place. I’m in Ohio and I agree that Kasich is not a serious candidate and it would be hard for him to even win Ohio in the general election for things he has done here. Carson and Trump should team up that might help Trump with the hard core social conservative types that would rather loose on hard principle then win with Trump who could actually get some things done.

If we can get Trump to the White house in 2016 while keeping the current numbers in the House and the Senate, than in 2018 we could pickup enough votes in the Senate to take us over 60 and then real reform could be done.

I like Trump on these short interviews he does very well in my opinion.

That was a very embarrassing moment for Rubio and so one wonders if Christie wasn’t clued in to what Rubio was given to say in that situation and therefore take advantage of knowing about that memorized set of words and maybe a few others.

The problem with Washington is not just that they makes rules and regulations in the various departments like the department of education it’s also that they have the states education dollars from federal taxes. When Jeb says he will send the money back to the states that is exactly what they do now and if the states want the money there are conditions or strings attached. If the state does not agree to do what the feds want they don’t get the money and then they would have to raise taxes on the people in the states to make up the difference. Obviously that wold not work so the states are run by the feds. The only way to stop this is to eliminate the department and therefore the control, and NO Republican or Democrat would ever do that.

The Republican’s just like the previous Democrat’s have not passed a budget and so they get to play games with continuing resolutions. This ‘game’ playing will never stop until a President stops it and the only one that might would be someone like Trump who actually wants to make things better.

Good call here and sundance is correct — only trump, the true leader, took action! The rest are only focused on themselves being politicians. A leader is not a politician and acts differently since the objective is to actually accomplish somethings not just to try and make yourself look good.

Trump does well in this format — of all the talks and presentations I’ve seen I’d say this was one of his best!
