You don't give me much opportunity to agree with you, but I had to here.

Having said that, let us talk about it when he gets past the republicans/conservatives? What do THEY think about him? Does that matters less than what democrats/progressives feel about him?

He appeals to the masses, not the sneaky creepy's. It is already out in the open, kinda like when Clinton got a second nod. He tried to hide it, but the majority felt like he was no different or above the rest.

No, he does not appeal to the Masses, not even those on the same level as Trump. Look, its one thing to assume that the Democrats will go after a Presidential hopeful or a Republican to go after Obama, but to assume that Democrats or Even Republicans for that matter could come up with any new material for Trump of all people is not only laughable but desperate.

No, I didn't forget, it was simply superfluous. I might also question how you measure success. Because Trumps isn't mine.

I love Ron Paul, but as we have seen, it is not about who is qualified anymore. It is a freek'n popularity contest.
If you look good and can speak to a crowd, saying what they want to hear, your in.


Trump is right.

As much as I would like to see Ron Paul as our President, he cannot get elected in this day and age.

First off, you have no clue what a Conservative thinking mind, is focused on at this moment in our history.

You are too emotionally attached to the Nanny state of things.

Momma is fixing to kick all the kids out of the house!

As it should be.

Trump is about the Trump brand and keeping his name in the headlines.

He has talked about running for president a number of different times. I doubt that this time will be any different.

He should be worrying about all that debt he is accruing on his property in Chicago and Vegas, but he will probably just file for bankruptcy again.

BUT YOU KNOW what a Democrat thinking mind, is focused on at this moment in our history? Yeah...ok...

Funny, you just accused me of knowing the thinking mind of a conservative, but then falsely CLAIMED the above. Amazing the two step hypocrisy in this one thread.

I have no idea what this is suppose to mean. Can you try proper grammer please?
As it should be.
Try again

Call him all the names you wish, sorry but don't see the Donald as a backstabber in any way, he is too up front always has been, with his ideals and his passions. Right now he seems to really be on a mission to want the U.S. to be as we once were, and you know what, he is worth a shot at it, we can give others a shot at it, why not someone who is so sucessful, he has not gotten there by being stupid in any way shape or form. I believe he wants us to be a thriving economy, isn't he worth a shot at it, as others have given those who have had very little expereince, and no business sense at all!

Private entrepreneurs running the country was a pre-requisite for corporate state according to Mussolini. Considering that, President Obama does look out of place.
