Donald Trump, win or lose, is serving a purpose …

Linda Cann Pearson @LindaCPearson (2240) • United States 18 Apr 16

No matter if we love or hate Donald Trump, if nothing else, he is serving a real purpose in this very long, very ugly, presidential nominating process. Trump is, with all his bluster and buffoonery, shedding light on just how...

Donald Trump and family get an A+ at CNN Town Hall

Linda Cann Pearson @LindaCPearson (2240) • United States 13 Apr 16

My opinion only – I think Trump, his wife Melania and his extremely impressive kids appeared as very classy, intelligent, supportive, loving and yes, presidential, last night on CNN’s town hall hosted by Anderson Cooper. If...

Justusforus @desertdawg (312) • United States 7 Apr 16

I think this years primary elections in the United States are bringing out the good, the bad and the truly ugly. In this country, I think most have been told we have one of the most free and best election processes in the...

Do You Think It Would Be Fair to Trump and His Supporters to Have a Brokered Convention

Paul Kuehn @pauliek (287) • Udon Thani, Thailand 6 Mar 16

A lot of the Republican establishment figures have suggested having a brokered convention and drafting an establishment choice if Trump comes close but can't get the required delegates for nomination. Would this really be fair to...

For the Hillary supporters: How do you think she could still get the nomination

jonesy123 @jonesy123 (3948) • United States 2 Jun 08

Hillary's delegate count is not enough to win. Now I heard she is trying to swing the Superdelegates her way, even those who have already endorsed Obama. Essentially a last ditch effort. For all of you still rooting for...

The Delegate Math Behind A Hillary Clinton Victory

jormins @jormins (1223) • United States 26 Apr 08

I know the media is pushing that this race is very, very alive. While Senator Clinton has some momentum, the last numbers I've seen show her down even after Pennsylvania by 156 pledged delegates. Her "huge" victories in Ohio,...

Should there be a re-vote in Florida and Michigan?

dizzblnd @dizzblnd (3073) • United States 18 Mar 08

Neither of the Democratic candidates campaigned here in Florida or in Michigan. Both were on the ballots, both received votes. Now they are whining about the delegate count. I am registered Independent, but I lean Republican. I...

Texan Voters

lancingboy @lancingboy (1385) • United States 26 Feb 08

This is really confusing to me, but apparently, each Texan can vote during the election twice. They can vote for the primary election and again for the caucus to select the delegates. At least, this is what I understand from the...

How Do Delegates Work?

lancingboy @lancingboy (1385) • United States 5 Feb 08

You know, after all these years, I still don't understand how delegates and electing people for president work. On the news, I heard about how certain states have certain delegates. Do these determine who will be president? What...

Congratulations Clinton, McCain, Obama and Romney!

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 9 Jan 08

Looks like the people of New Hampshire have spoken! Hillary Clinton got the Democrats' vote, and for the Republicans it was McCain. There's a lot of talk about upsets and surprise outcomes, but it turned out pretty much the way...
