The Republican Debates and candidates

Having watched all the Republicans debates so far and listening to the candidates carefully expressed their views, there is one thing I can say that has occurred to me about some of the candidates.  First, Trump appears to me to be an egotistical, self-serving person who believes the world revolves around him and has as much respect for our constitution as written as Obama.  This should frighten everyone that has lived through the Obama years.  If you have just arrived from another planet you must understand that Obama does not like our constitution, believes he do whatever he wants and the weak opposition lets him get away with it.  In listening to Trump, I see someone who intends to do whatever he wants and surround himself with like-minded people.  When we should be rallying around those who respect our constitution, we seem to be under the spell of false rhetoric of making us great again.  Trump is only interested in making himself great.  Trump has raised issues most citizens are concerned about, but his bombastic rhetoric is not the way to go about solving these issues.

 I believe Cruz, Fiorina, Rubio and even Christie would do a better job.  Huckabee and Santorum would also, but as with 2012, they are not getting traction.  Bush is failing and just received an endorsement from Lindsay Graham, the kiss of death.   I also realize the mantra for 2016 is anyone but Hillary that would be the same failed policies of the Obama administration.  We know Hillary could not answer the question on the difference between a socialist and a democrat and claimed she is a progressive.  Well, a progressive is a mixture of a socialist, Marxist and Communist.  So, that is why she could not answer the question.  I just hope the choice is not between Hillary and Trump.  But, then again, Hillary could be under indictment by election time or if not prosecuted, due to DOJ turning a blind eye to justice, the truth will be out there anyway and under a republican administration would be prosecuted.  Here comes Biden.  I just hope Trump supporters awaken and ask how he is going to do what he claims.  It seems his answer is “You do not want to know what I will do”.  Not the correct answer.  Even the debate last night he had to alter what he said previously.  I congratulate Trump for raising issues and not being politically correct, but neither is Ted Cruz, which is why both are disliked by the republican establishment. 

This election should be very interesting and I hope the voters wake up and actually listen to what is being said, verify the facts and see where we are heading under the Obama failed policies both internationally and domestically.  The question is, “Are you better off today than seven years ago”.  If not, who offers the best plan to get the country moving up again.
