Trump can say what ever he wants but the Senate does everything and he just signs the bills. Donald will find out it is much harder to work in the goverment than as an entreprenuer. I've heard rumors of Chris Christie being his VP Why not......he has been kissing Trump's butt since he dropped out.....LOL
I hope it is not Christie! Yes he has been kissing his ace. Christie is smart, he cut the chase in the primaries and went straight to kissing to get to the VP position.

     Location: Somewhere between S@% stirrer and Saint | OregonBR - 2016-05-04 11:11 AM  The Donald has been getting a lot of votes. I think he'll win the presidency IF there are no shenanigans with the votes. I don't get people throwing their sucker in the dirt and not voting at all. This is the process. It's not perfect but it's what we have. I personally don't like the delegate system. It undermines the popular vote of the people. I don't listen to polls. They are SO wrong many times it's amazing.
Never heard this before but I love it. |

It appears your understanding of the electoral process is limited.
you would really be up a creek if we did not have this process in place.
It has been perverted over time, but still affords a great deal of protection for the masses.

Yes I imagine it is limited. I'm still a lot more informed than most voters. But you can explain how the delegates voting against the people and being bribed into voting against the people's desires is a good thing. That would help me a lot.

        Location: SE KS | GrahamKayleigh - 2016-05-04 9:48 AM Got this from my preacher.... I am NOT a Trump supporter, I voted for Cruz. However this November I will vote Trump, because I can not vote Hillary! Now I realize there are many of you who will say " you can't violate your convictions and vote Trump because he is not a Christian." I would like to take this moment to say God can work through the ungodly just as He can the Godly. For example, when God used Joseph to influence the Pharaoh and saved Israel from a massive famine. Also, when God used Daniel to show Nebuchadnezzar who the One true God is. So all that being said, I will pray for the salvation of Donald Trump, and I will pray that Godly men will surround him, should he become President to steer this country back to God.
may I use your quote on FB persay - this is very good. The lord does work thru unbelievers or ungodly people.....
Joseph is a great example. Did a bible study on him last night and his intregrity and how Mr. pontifar and Pharoah saw his goodness, and the lord bless Egpyt because of Joseph. Jospeh still had some trials though - Mrs. P - bad woman.

| Trump and Mitt don't mix.
Here's my take. Condoleeza Rice is the insider that has respect and will gain minority votes. Marco Rubio is also respected as insider and still can spark an interest with minority. Kelly Ayotte is a woman. Seems like that's enough these days. Rudi Guilliani is my personal choice but he's not an insider in D.C. A wierd combo but could be interesting is John McCain. There's a congresswoman here that is kicking tail in Arizona named Martha McSally. An ex fighter pilot. OMG she is amazing. Scott and Carol would love this woman. |

I like Rubio as VP. Cruz as S. Court Justice. Then they can compare hands in the Oval office. True they wouldn't mix. Mitt has to much class for Donald |

Here's my take. Condoleeza Rice is the insider that has respect and will gain minority votes. Marco Rubio is also respected as insider and still can spark an interest with minority. Kelly Ayotte is a woman. Seems like that's enough these days. Rudi Guilliani is my personal choice but he's not an insider in D.C. A wierd combo but could be interesting is John McCain. There's a congresswoman here that is kicking tail in Arizona named Martha McSally. An ex fighter pilot. OMG she is amazing. Scott and Carol would love this woman. Â
I would really like Condoleeza Rice or Rudi Guilliani. I don't know Kelly Ayotte or Martha McSally . I'll have to look into them if either are selected. None of the rest interest me at all. |

I hope he finds a place for Condi---not sure it will be VP, she HATES campaigning and has voiced her opinion on it. I would like Rubio----youth, and Florida. Susana Martinez is a name that keeps popping up--Governor of NM. Don't know a lot about her though. Newt Gingrich----hope he finds a place for him also but doubt it will be VP. Scott Walker---another possibility. More than VP----who he would nominate for Supreme Court Justice is HUGE. |

The first two things that come to mind are the 2nd Amendment and Social Security. He's on the wrong side of both. Plus he's a jerk. |

Common Sense and then some
         Location: So. California | Trump hasn't spent much money, because he hasn't needed to. The media, social media, etc, has kept him in the headlines, and you just can't buy that level of coverage.
Now, both Clinton and Tump have high unfavorable ratings. The general election will be about voting AGAINST the candidate, not necessarily about voting for a candidate. And since the electorial delegates will be making the final choice, I see Trump as having the edge. He is a deal maker after all....
As for a VP candidate, I just don't see him picking the traditional way. Nothing about his campaign has been normal or along traditional lines, he'll think outside the box and pick someone that has strong foreign affairs experience, maybe strong military background. This person will energize the conservative base and that he can trust to have his back. His choice will also garner much needed GOP $$$...
Kasich may be an outside option. Paul Ryan would be an excellent choice. Or someone that can pull in the western states...
Carson and Christy will have cabinet positions.

Yes! This! Thank you for bringing up Biblical examples of how God used ungodly men for His purposes!
As much as I don't WANT to vote for Trump....every no vote, write in, or vote for a third party is a vote for Hilary, unfortunately. :( |
