I have been reading his policy, reading what other sources say about it and everything else a responsible voter does when choosing a candidate.

I have not heard Trump say anything about the Hispanics and Chinese ruining our country, are you sure you are listening to Trump or are you just reading headlines from liberal media. Let me warn you that just reading headlines and posting here causes a lot of posters embarrassment.

I can see that you are confused about what Trump has said but with my past experience, it is impossible to reach someone that refuses to do their homework.

Voting for Trump is the intelligent choice. I would love to see him running against Sanders which would allow the people to have two real choices of citizens that are patriotic and have the best interest of our country as their agenda.

I believe that you are over simplifying the whole process of choosing a candidate.
Good post AnywhereElse. By the way, you're a women.... aren't you supposed to be voting for Hillary not because of policy but vote for her because she's a women? LOL.

Trump has an America first philosophy.

Individual policies are tailored to the philosophical underpinnings.

It's "ILLEGAL" immigrants, people who came here without going through the "legal" process.

All you're doing is using PC bonics to try to make something that is wrong (and illegal) and presto, chango, trying to make it right. They are ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.

I would like a Sanders/Trump ticket as well. It reflects the change America so desperately wants. In our capitalist government it's the only way to invoke change. Otherwise we are silenced and stifled by lobbyists and special interests groups who pay millions for influence and we cannot compete. We can only make noise, stomp our feet, scream and yell for change. It's obvious by this election cycle Americans are sick of business as usual. That leads me to believe the majority of citizens are suffering, otherwise they wouldn't demand change. This is a revolution, not an election process.

Being a women does not override being a human being who needs a job, healthcare, and a decent future. Being a women just makes it more important for me to change the future of America for my children. Having a women in office who brings nothing new to America is simply something I cannot afford at the moment. Especially when that women has sold her soul for the position.

Good post AnywhereElse! I agree.

Exactly, but Hillary doesn't think so and she is pandering to those women ... I've seen posts and interviews where women said they are voting for Hillary because they want to see a women president. Then again, I've talked to people who voted for Obama because as one said "I think he's cute" lol

News flash for you: Every U.S. Senator and Member of the House raises hundreds of thousands of dollars each week from big donors. Moreover, each political party raises money from large donors. This is the way the system works.

What you are trying to do is make it seem as if Mrs. Clinton is doing something completely contrary to the campaign finance system that exists. She isn't. When Trump starts getting support from the Republican Party, a lot of that money is going to be coming from Wall Street donors and oil companies.

The reality is that while the Democratic Party, including Mrs. Clinton and Mrs. Warren, were trying to pass Dodd/Frank, the GOP was doing Wall Street's bidding by opposing it tooth and nail.

I think it's time you got off your high horse and falsely accusing Mr.s Clinton of doing something unseemly.

Why not? The economy is far better than when he took over; more people have health insurance than in decades; we have regulations governing Wall Street that we didn't have before; we have sound climate change policies; etc, etc.

All the things the GOP tried to scare voters about Mr. Obama ended up being wrong. That's why Mr. Obama has a high approval rating.
