I think the Republicans have incredibly garbage candidates.

I just can't imagine Jeb Bush winning. Ted Cruz is too far to the right, he stands no chance. The only people in my view that could get the nomination, are Carly Fiorina, Ben Carson, Donald Trump, and Marco Rubio.


Carly is eh, annoying. If she gets the nomination, its because she is a woman, and for no other reason. I like Ben Carson, he has been growing on me a lot lately, but if he gets the nomination, it'll be because he is a nice black man, not because he really has the chops to be president.

Donald Trump is eh, he is kind of a weird fake Republican. I don't believe he is a Christian(or he is no more a Christian than Obama). He comes off a bit disingenuous on several issues, such as healthcare, guns, abortion, among other things.

To be honest, the only reason Trump is relevant, is because he wants to "build the wall", and because most conservatives literally despise Washington D.C., and they will take pretty much anything that isn't "the status quo", and "political correctness".


I think Marco Rubio will end up getting the nomination. BecauseI think an establishment candidate will ultimately get the nod, and Rubio seems to stand the best chance in a national election.


As for the Democrats, you have Hillary the liar, and Bilderberg power-couple alongside Bill Clinton, and all their corporate cronies. And then Bernie "The Socialist" Sanders. Just looking at the lineup, this country feels like it has gone absolutely insane. And it is going insane in nearly exactly opposite directions.


And I love every minute of it.

Computer predictions are only as good as the data and correlation used. IE They've "unskewed" it.

Want a better prediction? Use crowds of people and a way to score so its competitive. Try something like this:

2016 President - Winner | PredictWise

My guess is Dem in 2017, but its really way too early to say.

Default Keep dreamin

I have never seen the Republicans in such disarray. They gave us 8 years of Bush, then 8 years of obstruction, with the great President Obama doing exceptionally well regardless. I'd say the Republicans have absolutely NOTHING to offer, except the recipe for causing the country to once again nearly bleed to death. A ridiculous computer prediction means absolutely nothing...obviously.
