Trump is like a middle finger pointed at the old school way of politics and the media. A lot of people want real change. If Trump doesn't get assassinated before he gets a chance to be elected I think he has a shot at it. The reason I think this is that I believe he is going to pull some of the 50% or so people, who don't vote, off the couch and into the booth. That's why he is so popular and also why everybody is freaking out. From the beginning he has turned everything into a compare it to me race. He has tapped into the anger of the silent majority and boys that ain't nothing to laugh at. Personally I don't know if he will do a good job or not but he is a negotiator and he likes to win. Plus he is not bought and paid for. Bernie makes sense sometimes but he is so old he won't make it past the first year in office. Then there is the other half of what he says that sort of neutralizes the whole speech. I don't think the US is ready for a socialist president either. Then there is Hillary. I don't even think she believes what she is saying anymore. She also wants to grow up to be Obama which really isn't helping her at all. As for the republicans, when I watch them debate I keep thinking they are all hoping Donald picks them to be vice president :<0) I know this, if somebody doesn't get in there and do something about what is ailing this country or about too,, there is going to be trouble for everybody.
Better yet do it like a Miss America pageant. I would pay cash to see the idiots in the "Evening Gown" competition.:rofl2:Quote:

The job of president is the most thankless job in the country. You take the blame for things you have little control over and there is no way to please everyone. One would have to be crazy to even want that job. Therefore, I believe that anyone who actively seeks that position should in no way be allowed to have it.
I like the Donald, but I do feel he is a bit brash but a country is like a large business.
I like Cruz, but he is a politician.
Either will get my vote.
Hillary should be in prison.
Bernie is just a bafoon & already admitted he would tax us to death to share the wealth.
That's where I stand, not debate-able...I won't show up.
I'm unaware of any independent large (or small) business with the sovereign authority to create and enforce popular law and to command it's own military. I could be wrong, enlighten me. I'm sure "The Donald" is a great guy, but I wonder (and have serious doubt) that he's really qualified to be a head of state. He certainly talks a good game, and puts on a good show, but does that earn him the presidency? Is President of the United States so trivial a position that the job goes to whoever puts on the best show? I'd hope not. I wouldn't hesitate to have Trump negotiate a real estate deal for me, or build me a golf course or maybe a casino. But even those things didn't always work out so well for him. He claims he wants to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it. If he thinks he wields that kind of power and can strong arm a foreign country into financing a wall, then what could he do in his own country should he choose? Besides, walls don't just keep people out. I get his popularity, but I fear it's for all of the wrong reasons.
I would say the one we've got now, and his predecessor, were no more qualified than Trump is. Presidents surround themselves with people who are qualified and delegate authority and receive advice. I'm not sold on Trump, but I'm not buying the premise that he is inexperienced. If 'experience' got us where we've gone the past 15 years I will opt for something different.Quote:
