The only people I want less for President than Bernie Sanders are Trump, Cruz, or Rubio.

And give your orders to somebody foolish enough to be interested in following them.
Go for it and bet, there is a line about money and soon parted which I cannot seem to recall.

We will have our own version of Trump, none other than Jesse Ventura.

Of course he has an ego to match Trump's. “Jesse Ventura is a bright, shining new face who comes riding in on a white stallion to save the country,” he said.

Quote:
Former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura (I) said he would run for president, if the current race comes down to Donald Trump against Hillary Clinton, the Daily Beast reported.
Quote:
“I despise the two parties,” said Ventura. “I love what Trump’s doing to the Republicans. He’s got them in complete disarray. In fact, it looks like the WWE when you watch their debates.”
So this of course qualifies him for a Presidential candidate.

The GOP at the presidential level is like the Titanic right now. We would not be in this situation if Democrats would vote in off year elections. The continuation of GOP power at the state level is continuing its existence where it should be withering away.

There's a lot of behind-the-scenes talk in the GOP establishment about somehow drafting Romney in a contested convention.

Bernie had nothing to do with my brain fart. The fart was a grammatical disconnect, between my post and the connected post, that had no remedy.

Do you think Trump's voters care what some Stupid Limey Libtard thinks or says?
