I vote who offers the best results....

Voted for Hillary in 08 and Obama in 12. At the time thought they had to best program. Honestly Obama did bring us out of the recession. I just do want another 4 more years of the last eight years. Plus I have working knowledge how Clinton starting the recession and 1000's lost their homes to foreclosure. Many more were affected by the drop in real estate value. Now Hillary is talking to the big banks that worked with her husband. Hillary is covered in wall street and Big Bank money. Point Crooked Hillary is a good name for her.

As a Trumpeter - the reason why I am voting for Trump is the economy. Sure as many do cannot defend all his actions. He is a proven money manager. Compare that to the other candidates.

Do we want someone to put us deeper in debt, or to make America Great Again...


Trump 2016

I vote for the candidate I believe will best represent me. Regardless of whether that person is a Democrat or Republican.

How much time have you spent researching Trump's business record? What in your research indicated to you that Trump is a good businessman? Because I looked into it and it's pretty clear he is not a good businessman, but rather a fairly good actor playing the role of a "business man."

When I turn on CBS on a Sunday afternoon to watch a golf championship - and the announcer says welcome to Trump Doral in Miami.

Name one candidate who you think actually cares about putting Americans first then.

But he didn't, and I can't help but wonder why. I've come up with two possible scenarios.

1) He commissioned some private polling, and found that his messages appealed more to registered Rs than registered Ds.

2) He thought the R party rules would make it easier for him to get the nomination.

They're not exclusive, of course.
I can confirm that Donald Trump did private polling, because I personally received a survey phone call in 2014 when I was living in the suburbs of Buffalo, NY and Trump wanted to run for governor of NY. (Side note, after all his campaigning and fancy dinner parties across the state, in the end he refused to run unless unopposed.) I did not realize at the time, but I now recognize that this call was part of the presidential exploratory committees Trump has been forming every election cycle since the late 1980s. When Trump's exploratory committee called me in 2014, I was asked about my opinion of Trump, whether I thought he should run for governor or president, and my position on various issues.
