Once again I will say it between the Dems and Reps is this the best that America has?

SO who do we vote for?

Hillary: She is a walking scandal and her term would just be another 4 years of Obama leading us down a dangerous path.

Bernie: He would make a good president... of Sweden but this is the USA and we don't need to increase the welfare state which would happen under his socialist ideals.

Cruz: He is an odd fellow who is just a bit too preachy and whiny to be a President.

Trump: He is the opposite of Cruz but do we need a egomaniac loose cannon in the office?

Rubio: a tow the line Senator that thinks it would be OK to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. Just thinking that the American economy can absorb that many people is crazy.

JEB! We don't need another Bush.





I have next to zero confidence in any of these Bozos. This has to be the craziest election season ever.

Rubio does not believe "it would be OK to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens." That is what the smear artists in the Cruz and Trump campaigns would like you to believe though.

Rubio IS more pragmatic on the issue of immigration, which makes him unacceptable for those who use illegal immigration as a litmus test. The problem with those people is that they have no solution to the problem that addresses reality; i.e. you cannot deport 12 million people without destroying the economy, not to mention families and children.

Cape Cod Todd, if you live in Mass, as your name suggests, then it's already settled.
Go ahead and vote in the primary if you have a preference within either party, but
understand the Democrat will easily win Massachusetts so there is no reason for you
to vote in the Presidential election unless there are other choices on the ballot you
care enough about.

Don't vote.
It's a waste of time.
It really does not matter who "wins" anymore.

Then this would be a great election cycle to educate yourself about the vast number of third-party candidates who will be seeking election. None of them have a chance this time, or next time, or any time soon; but if enough people will stop staying home or voting for the least smelly pile of crap and start voting third party, the major parties will have to take notice.

What about Kasich? He likely will do well in NH and will get a major boost in other states as a result, especially as more Rs drop out such as Christie and Carson.

I don't think your choice matters, it's probably already decided by where you live. I'm in the same boat, I can only decide the local elections, not the Presidential election.

It's not JUST illegal immigration with Rubio. It's also the increase in H-1B visas he's pushing for cheap labor for big business killing jobs for white collar workers, as well. Look at his donors.

You mean like the kind that Trump hires? Trump would be one of those alleged donors if he weren't running. Of the approximately 800,000 of them issued in the US, Trump's company currently is employing 1,100 of them.
