"Several of the Presidential candidates on the Republican side, including both Carly Fiorina and Ted Cruz, are."
Really? That's great. I haven't followed it that closely. This is one of the most important issues.

Several of the Presidential candidates on the Republican side, including both Carly Fiorina and Ted Cruz, are. And when asked in debates, none of the Republican candidates are asking for more executive power.

The other thing to be noted is that the Press only criticizes one side of the aisle on Executive Actions. They railed on Bush II for them yet have praised Obama on his, even though of the two only Obama has used it as blatantly for extra-Executive actions.

"If you can not only execute the laws but make them as well as President Obama has for 7 years, there is nothing to stop Hillary if she were elected."
This applies to everyone. There's nothing to stop [insert hypothetical future president here]. No one is running on decreasing executive branch power.

If you can not only execute the laws but make them as well as President Obama has for 7 years, there is nothing to stop Hillary if she were elected. The Republicans certainly haven't shown any inkling to do so.

The Justice Department is so politicized that they have immunity from there own corruption.

"Trumps challenge is to get the nomination. If he does I think he'll win the election easily."

And our journey to the dark side will be complete.

Bernie can't possibly win a general election. Trumps challenge is to get the nomination. If he does I think he'll win the election easily. Republicans will close ranks and support the nominee to get back the White House. Blue dog and centrist Democrats will vote in large enough numbers to give Trump the win. Democrats are not excited about Hillary or Bernie and I expect a low voter turn out on their side. Right now Biden is a wild card.

I hope you're wrong about Hillary Clinton. I do not think Trump or Sanders can win the general election or take steps to fix the problems.

I don't see any president fixing it because part of the problem is excessive power of the presidency. It's hard for someone to have the extraordinary commitment and ability to win but then not use the powers the last president took. Most of the candidates except Ron Paul in '08 don't even promise to do that. Maybe Rand Paul did too. Rand Paul sees the need to limit gov't in general. I don't remember if he said he would limit the presidency.

Hillary and Bernie are absolute disasters in my opinion. Donald is far from perfect but he may stop the bleeding and get the economy going again. W may have been bad but O has been worse. The amount of work that needs done to return the US to freedom and liberty will take multiple Presidential terms.

"Donald had to get along with everyone to get things done "
He does a good job, though, of coming off as an iconoclast.

Donald had to get along with everyone to get things done so he had to keep his true conviction to himself. Sanders success in my opinion is more a factor of Hillarys weakness. The FBI investigation and all of Bills problems have some Democrats nervous.

Yes, as if the law didn't apply to them.

This is interesting.
"I often resist challenging a customer when I think it will do no good and could cause me to lose business."
Are you saying Trump is more likely to lie than Sanders? That sounds right to me.
"I think he was there to make it look like Hillary had to fight "
Do you think some Democrats almost arranged for Sanders' partial success for this reason?

LOL also.

One wonders if it will all go that way anyway. A Pinochet style reset button for the United States.

Ah, memories, back in the mid-90's I had a running five day editorial published in the Elko Daily Free Press. It was a lengthy muse on jurisdictions and how the first Clinton should have been in Leavenworth. God, that was twenty years ago.

There is no way in hell we can afford another Clinton, and one that cackles while getting away with it all. Last night was sickening.

Lol.

The military would eat her alive. She treats them like garbage. You can be sure that if she was put in front of a military tribunal they would throw the book at her, lock her in Leavensworth, and throw away the key.

In this respect, it is great to see them sweat.

I was thinking that since they blow across jusrisdictions all the time, let's feed her to the military. But.....

That would be nice, but I think that's reserved for military personnel - not civilians. All we can do now is see how much political pressure gets put on the Justice Department to recommend a Grand Jury Indictment, then see if the Grand Jury gets bought off before recommending prosecution.

Oh I agree. But its a secondary problem - the original is that they're doing things they know are wrong in the first place.

"He's our Donal Trump". Sometimes you make me gag.
