    I know I have poopoo'd some of the so-called conspiracy theories over my lifetime. Or maybe what some call "scare tactics". A "we the people" in fear would be easy to overcome. That's why I appreciate that inner strength that some have, and I am able to gain some of that from folks that have much more than I do. I was so upset this a.m. but feel a bit better now, a lot better, because I remember my faith, and not to rely only on what is seen in this world. I know some think I'm a weirdo. But if my faith keeps me from panicking over what is coming to pass that I DO see with my own eyes (not what "may" come) then I will continue to lean on that faith.

    I get offtrack easy on these discussions, my mind is going 1000 different directions sometimes, but what I want to say is that it is good to look at ALL the possibilities (although frightening as some are). I think there is much more "possible" than many think. I don't "know" anything for sure. I have to go by what I see/hear, but yet there is an inner voice with me too. Maybe gut-instinct, intuition, faith, but for me, there has to be that "help" I'll call it.

    Denise, I don't think you're wacky and if you know anyone who does, I will come down a little bit hard with my ball pine hammer smack dab on his big toe. My comments here on this forum or elsewhere is to merely join the conversation and be a friendly sort of guy. So my compliments to the chief for your feed back. Cheers.

    I totally agree, Ms Hunt, more or less.

    Thanks Bill, I've always enjoyed discussing things of any sort, with folks that know how to express their opinions/beliefs, without "slicing and dicing" another persons;)

    I think Trump is saying the right things for most people but I have not heard him address big industries that are behind a lot of problems with humanity. Big pharma, oil industry, chemical industries like Monsanto, nuclear power, big medical, and all the other monopolise. If he sides with them then he will have no problem getting to be president.

    Just read CNN's Annoucement that Ted Cruz and John Kasich are teaming up to defeat Trump. This is a really strange Election year...and it will be interesting to see how it ends.

    So far, well over 50% in all five states and, so far, Ted Cruz only came in second in Pennsylvania, so it looks like the GOP establishment is telling Cruz where he can go.

    Trump trumped again in all 5 States! And now the News can't say it's just the "red necks. etc." pulling for him. Meanwhile John Boehner calls Cruz "Lucifer in the Flesh!" ...and did I mention that Boehner and Trump play Golf together, etc. I don't like Boehner at all so now I'm thinking Boehner and Trump....What! :eek:

    He has 1002 delagates as of tonight. Hope he gets the 1237 before the convention or the powers that be may try to take nomination away.

    Indiana will be important but there's a lot of money against him in Indiana. If he can manage to take Indiana, the nomination is probably his.

    I think Trump has a very good chance of winning the nomination now....but I still don't trust "the powers that be" to let him have it. To do so would be risking the tearing down of everything they have had control of for way to long. If they can't stop Trump one way...I'm concerned they will have him assassinated. I am finding out that those who are in control behind the scenes will stop at nothing to stay in control.

    I don't have any idea how Trump would be as our President Gary. I just know I don't want another Politician or Puppet in that position....and I definitely do not want the Clintons back in the White House!

    Obama is a puppet. he was built in Harry Reid's basement. he was elected solely on the color of his skin. with Clinton. the first woman. can you feature Bill Clinton back in the WH ?? I think Trump is tired of seeing our country destroyed. I agree. like any new prez he'll learn what works and doesn't. hiring the right people is the key. Im tired of hearing part of the world laugh at us. and silent part is arming up and waiting to move in. im not voting for Cruz or that other spineless idiot. if it doesn't work out for trump im staying home election day.
