I have come full circle, and feel today like I did when Ronald Reagan ran for president against Carter. I wanted him president when he ran against Ford. Trump, brings that same degree of no nonsense clarity to the debate. and this is why I'm voting for him, and speaking out whenever I can in his behalf.

Do you think Trump actually wrote those books?

Whether or not he “wrote” it or had a co-author, the ideas in the book are all his.

I agree.

When the candidates were ramping up originally I looked at everyone running, with the following the things I wanted to see from someone:

1) Bring back American jobs.
2) Secure America’s borders.

Thus far, Trump is saying those things loudly, and he’s the only one who I trust at this point in time.

Trump. I actually support Palin even more, but Trump is stronger as a campaigner, and seems to possibly be a better candidate.

Thanks for posting this.

Remember when you want healthcare services that you have to say “acute pain” or you will likely have to wait a long time.

Probably had those writings down along the way for books he’s always writing, so yes!
Did you know he says he’s smart by the way?

This is actually helpful. Thank you for putting it together. I appreciate it.

I’m still not there - but you know what - I could get there.

There is really only one line of argument for sporting Donald Trump for president.

It is not that we hate the GOPe so much that we would vote for the devil if he put a curse on Mitch McConnell, it is that Trump offers some hope on immigration and if out-of-control immigration is not brought under control conservatism is dead in America. If conservatism dies, the Republic dies.

Trump's claim to the presidency is limited to immigration and his promise respecting shutting it down.

But when we look carefully at what he promises concerning immigration, we are left scratching our heads. He will support all illegals only to readmit those he likes. How many will he like? He does not tell us. He acts as though he alone can make these determinations about who to readmit but he must deal with Congress. Just because Obama, the First Black President and a leftist, could govern on many issues, especially immigration, with his pen and his phone does not mean that a White Republican President will be able to do the same.

In exchange for his stance on immigration (admittedly the best of any candidate but still not crystal clear), we have to accept all of the rest of Donald Trump. Is Donald Trump's convoluted stance on immigration worth taking Donald Trump?

If Donald Trump will give me immigration at a time when no one else will, I will shut up and salute Donald Trump yet I know I am not getting a Messiah, I would not even be getting a conservative.

Maybe an unrepentant terrorist wrote it for him.

Unlike O’Reilly and Glenn Beck, who use ghost writers, like Ann Coulter, he wrote them himself. The last book has over 200 footnotes. His book the Art of the Deal is used in business schools.

Yes, he wrote these books, and I wish he can articulate the message in the debate tonight.

I dunno—Trump seems to be going a bit wobbly, of late.

Perhaps his “advisers” are getting to him.

I have been for Cruz, since the beginning, based on his record, and his intelligent speeches.

But no one has a natural right to be President. If Cruz cannot out-communicate and beat Trump, there’s no reason to believe he could communicate well enough in the White House to prevail over the Left.

If conservatism dies, the Republic dies.

True....of course, THATS MY fear with Trump. Precisely.
