How refreshing is it to have a candidate answer questions that weren't hand picked, openly, honestly and without a teleprompter? He's more of a president than the one we have had for seven years. God bless The Donald!
Yeah, if melting down and throwing fits like a petulant child on national television, while frequently shouting "liar! liar!", all the while lying more himself than the rest of the field combined, and also promising grandiose schemes which have effectively zero chance of ever happening is your idea of him answering questions "openly and honestly."
But he said nothing about running a 3rd party campaign. I just listened to the speech where this was taken from.
He indeed said something about it. This falls under the same catagory as "they say......." He's saying it but doing it in a way that he can deny he said it. Many Trump supporters say they want him because they are tired of being lied to and manipulated by politicians, well his supporters have hooked their star on the biggest manipulator running. He is playing you folks like a fiddle.

Actually all of the candidates are playing the people like a fiddle, with the exception of maybe just maybe Ben Carson.
Trump just said today. "I signed a pledge, but it’s a double-edged pledge. As far as I’m concerned, they’re in default on their pledge," Trump said of the RNC. Please explain how thats NOT a threat to run 3rd party?
I am not a Trump fan, but let's do try to be fair here, even though Trump and the Trump patrol certainly would not be. The RNC very certainly did violate their pledge to Trump with their outrageously biased conduct in their handling of the last debate.

He complained that the RNC isn't treating him fairly as they agreed to do when he signed the pledge not to run 3rd party. The conversation was about how they packed the debate in Greenville with people who were biased against him. He was only making the point they agreed not to be biased. He made no threats to leave the GOP and run independent.
There was no mention of 3rd party, running as independent, anything. The media has taken it completely out of context like they usually do when it comes to Trump.

I would add John Kasich to your list. He seems to be a very reasonable man and has a lot of experience in politics.
By the way, I love the way some of Trump's supporters continue to blame the media when the only reason he's the front-runner is because of all the free publicity.

Answers questions that weren't hand picked?
I guess you may be right, he just takes his ball and runs home when he fears the little blonde reporter asking them, eh?
