    Soro's money is actually just a small part of her campaign contributions. I believe many woman are for Hillary Clinton just because she is a woman and they would like to see a woman as President, yet when they think about what they know about her...how can they be passionate about her. She lies, is untrustworthy, etc. and even if these woman would like to see a woman represent them....this is certainly not "the woman" to represent all women that anyone should elect to the Office of the President. We have slim pickings this Presidential Election. And no one who I can really say I'm passionate about.

    they do have low friends in high places for sure. I can't figure women voting for her since she has a front page sex offender called a husband.

    Well so far the men who have held Office haven't impressed women to much either...I suppose they are just ready to see if a woman can do any better....but Hillary is not the right woman to check this out on in my opinion.

    uh, yeah, kinda sorta, not really but yeah......He's backing Trump.

    He said in a small speech that while he and Trump have some definite differences in many policies, that he had willingly signed the agreement to back whoever was elected the GOP candidate and he was going to stick with his promise.
    Unlike Bush, Cruz, and a couple of others, Rubio has some remarkable traits that I believe give him an "A" for good
    character. Granted, Rubio did jump into the kiddie sandbox during a couple of the debates but he found, much to his chagrin, that people and in particular his family were getting disappointed with him for suddenly acting like a kindergartener. Until that point, I was actually flipping coins between Rubio and Trump.
    Trump never changes his attitude so I expect some flippant things to go on but Rubio tried to be someone else that he wasn't.
    I like the idea of "what you see is what you get' and when I see someone change at the drop of a hat all of the red flags start waving.

    To make it short, yeah, I am glad Rubio stuck with his agreement. It says a lot of good things about him.

    Well now we can't expect him to give up all his pride and seem to eager about jumping on the Trump train Bobby...after all Trump wasn't very nice to Rubio, and vice versa. So they can't come out acting like best friends now either. :)

    I'll hold my opinion on all those good things it says about Rubio...until I actually see those good things happen.

    I don't know what all is new on the thread but I will catch up after I send this.

    I am not understanding the jubilation over Trump (he has my vote so far, I voted in this primary we just had as well). People are celebrating Trump and seem so secure but when I look at the "numbers" in these primaries, I'm confused. For example, yesterday, Hillary in the Dem. party votes, and Trumps. She has more votes. Is that because there are more democrats, or just the amount of people voting for her? So if she is getting higher number of voters, how does that make anyone for Trump feel secure that he is going to win?? I'm just not smart about all this. And if Bernie does drop out, she will get all of his voters too? See attachments (also, the delegates numbers, she gets way more) just looks to me like there are way more left, than right?:

    There is no guaranty that is Bernie drops out that those votes will automatic go to Hillary.
    Bernie and Trump are both anti government they are closer than the pro government Hillary.
    Some analyst is saying that probably half will switch to Trump.

    In California, I'm sure there are far more Democrats than Republicans. Plus, since no one else is challenging Trump for the Republican slot at this time, most (or at least many) Republicans wouldn't have bothered voting in the primary.

    That's good news Martin, I didn't know about the pro-government, and anti government labels, hadn't heard that before, although I get that, totally. I knew that if Bernie won out over Hillary, and if Trump didn't beat him, I would feel a lot better with Bernie in there rather than Hillary. I really don't know if all the stuff on her lying, and under-handed/sneaky stuff is true, but I have totally negative vibes about her. I could never vote for her. If she was all there was to vote for, I would not vote, period:(

    I did think about people not voting since they figured "why bother". I wish people would not think that way. Those numbers are encouraging to candidates, very important. I can't imagine having what it takes to stand up there and open yourself up to a whole Nation. Trump is tough, but he does blurt things out. Funny, but one of the main things I for one, love about him. I keep reading how people really don't know who the heck Hillary really is, or what she stands for. I think she may be mental and believe her own lies??

    I belong to one of the groups on FB, and I tell you, I don't like all the "hate" stuff. Towards any candidate, sometimes it's funny, because I don't like Hillary or Obama, and the pics (made up photoshop stuff) cracks me up, but at the same time, it's not healthy. I'm a christian (although you can't tell by some of the things I say and do) so I know right from wrong. I guess all campaigns have led to "hate" stuff. That's our fallen world isn't it:(

    This is so true, I see it everyday Ken. By the same token, I have to wonder what is "made up" about Hillary, although I have listened to her actual speeches and she sounds just like the puppets that have gone before her. Trump is genuine, what you see is what you get, and believe me, I am watching his "actual" speeches, not looking at propaganda/photoshop and unreliable news sources.

    I don't know how it will all turn out @Babs Hunt but if nothing else, America has seemed to have woken up, thank you God.
