You can thank texas and the right wing racist nuts that hate everyone who resembles a hispanic person here. Even though Trump himself employs lots of illegals Laughing

Trump is leading the poll because he doesn't need to split the racist vote, because he's clearly the most racist candidate out there.

On the other hand, all the other candidates have competition on most of their wedge issues, there's more than one libertarian running, there's more than one moderate etc. etc. - once a few of the low hanging fruit drop, Trump will be left in the dust. Don't worry.

When Bush (the idiot son of Sr.) tried this anti-hispanic thing... the hispanic population went on strike and didn't work for 2 days. EVERYTHING grinded to a halt in Los Angeles: No construction, no restaurants, no trash collection, supermarkets were understaffed, etc. The basic needs of the city were basically halted.

They should do it again and remind these morons the importance of their presence.

They are hard working and family-oriented to a very large extent.

To be fair, if they continue the trend of voting Democrat the Republicans will have to acknowledge them sooner rather than later or face an extended period of increasing political irrelevance.

Bullshit, look at how many of the candidates refused to condemn Trump's statements about the hispanics and defend them. The candidates might not be racist, but they almost all realize that they need to pander to that audience if they want to win.

Trump is in a really interesting position. By being able to threaten to run as a 3rd party he would basically break the republican presidency chance, it's hard to see them winning even if Trump gets as little as 5% of the vote running independently.

Trump's popularity is more about Americans absolutely hating politicians and the Washington establishment....  so Trump gets those people and there are a lot of them.  He's not a politician regardless of how idiotic he is.

AND Obama is going after yet another massive project:  Global Climate.  Dude is making it into my top 5 US presidents of all time if he gets this done.

There are again, people in texas who will deny climate change and the like. Apparently global warming doesn't exist here and planned parenthood will be eternally illegal Laughing

According to the 2010 Census the average household size in Texas was 2.75 people, which is notably higher than the national average of 2.58.

Believe me, once a few candidates drop out, the majority of votes will congeal around the likes of Jeb Bush, not Trump.

As an outsider, the only candidate I have liked reading about is Bernie Sanders. But i've been told he has no chance.


Think Hillary will win it in the end

Biden might be a not-too-shitty choice as well. Doubt he'd win, but I think he'd be aaaa very reasonable president.

Literally impossible given the constitutional amendment passed (as a direct result of FDR, actually).

Read that Carly Fiorina did well in the GOP debate on fox.

googled her speech and could only watch it for 2 minutes before closing the tab

"I will fully back my good friend Netanyahu" followed by "I will do my best to cripple Iran's economy" followed by shitting on Obama and Hillary


I suddenly don't dislike David Cameron so much.

She looks like Ms. Underwood, has my vote.

All kidding aside I heard her CEO track record is terrible, doubt she would beat Clinton.

Watching the GOPDebate featuring Trump.

As a European, I am shocked at how extreme the views are of all these candidates.

And the amount of support there is for them.


How can anyone take these candidates seriously. They are all a parody of each other

Because people are prejudiced and in america as long as you are a WASP, it doesn't matter what you do, just make sure to hate on islam, support military aggression, and shit on obama no matter what.

You're in disbelief RG but come down to Dallas or Amarillo and you'll see what I mean.

People here actually believe to their hearts that the likes of Cruz and Trump preach the truth.

I was working for HP during her tenure there and the environment there was ridiculous. My business unit wasn't effected by the firings, but had a lot of friends in those areas that were. Lots of flip-flopping. People who thought they were safe were the ones that went first and the ones who should've gone stayed much longer than they should've. It was chaos. Meg Whitman was no better though.

Regarding the debates, it's clear that Fox News was the real winner here, as the Huff Post points out.

I must say, I don't agree with Megyn Kelly on a lot of stuff, but I enjoyed watching her hammer Trump on his comments about women. Fantastic segment.

Also really enjoyed Chris Christie's jabs with Rand Paul. Jeb Bush utterly failed with his "voice of reason" schtick. This wasn't the night for that and he made himself look rather weak with his calls for civility.

I personally won't support any of these candidates as my ideology is very different from theirs, but this was great entertainment.
