"the Donald" is sure stirring things up -- possibly for the better, as

I'm sure there are more intellectually capable candidates than Trump, but none of them have the courage to match his contempt for the twisted logic of candidate crucifixion by media slime. Voters simply want someone who speaks plainly and has a track record of following through, and they don't see that candidate except in Trump, despite his crude, blunt speech.

Trump's rise, and that of Bernie Sanders make it obvious that the American voter is tired of pandering liars.

They are both liars and not worthy of the office.

Trump is being assassinated for telling the truth. He is being criticized more for how he says it than what he is saying. People are calling a clown but he sure is getting attention on the subject of illegal immigration.

Go Trump go. Go on to other politically incorrect issues and drop your bombs.

The Bilderberges have all but given Hillary the crown. Anyone know who the CFR favors, as they, not us pick who wins?

The most telling statement in one of the Jeb Bush interviews was when he talked about "learning to speak the language of conservatives." My reaction was "Whoa! Weren't you just bragging about how you governed Florida as a conservative, and now you're talking about us like we're some foreign species?"

Trump, the outspoken billionaire. He appears to be a clown when contrasted to more "serious" candidates. But is he? A man who speaks his mind regardless of consequences, who is non-political, who doesn't appear to pander and won't sell his soul for money. A quote comes to mind: "In the valley of the blind, the one-eyed man is king." It might translate as, "In the valley of the clowns only the man who isn't a clown is called one. There is no doubt that Jeb Bush has annoyed deeply conservative folks with some of his stances. But compare his competency and governance of Florida to Obama and he looks pretty darn good. We've got 16 months to go and there'll be lots of fall-out between now and then. I'll bet a few surprises as well. Looks like fun -- unless we wind up with President Clinton. That will definitely not be fun.

Proof positive that with Jeb Bush it is only about who wins and not about what's right or wrong. He doesn't talk because people, no all, are on to the scam of the Republicans which in the "long haul" is no different than the scam of the Democrats.

Does anyone else think that all of this attention paid to these idiots maybe is Just a distraction from what's happening in the country and world around us? It's a year and a half before the next election and these guys will say anything to get attention.

Yeah, my first thought was 'that sounds like something Hillary would say'.

I hope he's done. I see little difference between Jeb and Hillary.
