Chris Christie is in
http://news.yahoo.com/...residential-campaign-160047262.html I wonder what will happen when Trump and Christie go at it. It will be like two monsters from a Japanese Kaiju film going toe to toe.

And , just to show how out of step some of the republican candidates are, Rand Paul is going to see Clive Bundy, that thief that is grazing on government property without paying the required grazing fee. Rand Paul tweeted you can be discriminated against by the color of your skin or by your ideology. i wonder when becoming a thief was an ideology. And, considering the racist comments Clive Bundy has made, I wonder if Rand Paul really thought his 'outreach' to African americans out well.

Americans need to work longer hours
"My aspiration for the country and I believe we can achieve it is 4% growth as far as the eye can see," he said, according to The Washington Post. "Which means we have to be a lot more productive, workforce participation has to rise from its all-time modern lows. It means that people need to work longer hours and, through their productivity, gain more income for their families." `Jeb
So I think this will probably not win him any votes, out of touch is a understatement.

Trump's all-round idiocy and loathsomeness have now put him in first place in at least one Republican primary poll. Opinion from the left is that if he gets the nomination he could be easily beaten either by Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, or a yogurt.

I have a great relationship with the Mexican people. I have many people working for me — look at the job in Washington — I have many legal immigrants working with me. And many of them come from Mexico. They love me, I love them, the 2016 GOP contender said in an interview with NBC News. And I’ll tell you something, if I get the nomination, I’ll win the Latino vote. Trump said that there’s nothing to apologize for in relation to his controversial comments about Mexico, arguing that he’ll win the support of Latinos because of his record creating jobs. Hillary Clinton is not going to be able to create jobs, I will tell you right now, he said. Neither is Jeb Bush going to be able to create jobs. I will create jobs and the Latinos will have jobs that they don’t have right now. And I will win that vote.
The Donald Opinion from the left is that if he gets the nomination he could be easily beaten either by Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, or a yogurt. I donno bout that. The guy obviously can work magic and literally everyone loves him, especially all those Latinos and Mexicans he employs. Or will, once he has the crown. It's gotta be in the wig.
Edited by AZPaul3, : what wig?

The latest polls have The Donald ahead of the entire pack: Trump is doing well, but you've exaggerated what your article says, which is that trump is leading in one poll, namely the one conducted by The Economist. Here is a list of quite a few recent polling results. Trump is leading in a couple, Paul is leading in a couple, Ben Carson is leading in several polls, while Jeb Bush is leading in most polls. Note that Trump has been leading for a couple of months in the Economist poll. Nationwide opinion polling for the 2016 Republican Party presidential primaries - Wikipedia
Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison.

Martin Luther King If there are no stupid questions, then what kind of questions do stupid people ask? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions? Scott Adams

Things Jeb Bush Knows And Things He Doesn't Know
Good news, Jeb Bush admits that climate change exists (rather than the more popular Republican view that all the thermometers are lying to us or something). Bad news, he thinks it'll be fixed by " a person in a garage somewhere".

Re: Things Jeb Bush Knows And Things He Doesn't Know
If he's prepared to throw a few million my way, I'll gladly put a desk and chair in my garage, and have a really good think about it. (I'll need a coffee machine too).
Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

I'll be honest - the thought had crossed my mind.

Re: Donald Trump is a Democratic plot to make GOP look stupid
He doesn't make them look stupider, he's just funnier to watch. The GOP is already a clown car full of stupid. The line-up really is from the very bottom of the barrel of America when you consider intellect, education, honesty, integrity, compassion, empathy, and character. They are an embarrassment to America and the human race.
