Why is this Anti-Gun, “Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing” Candidate still Running for President?

Tim Macy, Chairman of Gun Owners of America, wrote an open letter to Second Amendment supporters exposing Republican presidential candidate John Kasich’s real anti-gun agenda.
Labeling Kasich the “wolf in sheep’s clothing” still in the presidential race, Macy points to Kasich’s close relationship with Leftist, Communist, billionaire George Soros. In fact, the Soros Fund Management is one of John Kasich’s top financial contributors.
“This can hardly be a surprise,” Macy writes. His full letter can be read here. An abbreviated version is below.
Kasich and Soros share two important traits: (1) their desire to mess up the Republican selection process for devious motives, and (2) their absolute hatred for the Second Amendment.
Kasichs antipathy towards gun rights is no secret to anyone whos watched his career.
He famously joined a gaggle of fellow-RINOs and cast the deciding vote to impose a ban on semi-auto firearms. For this, he received a personal letter of thanks from a gun-hating Bill Clinton.
Kasich voted for background checks in 1993, a system where roughly 95% of denials are false positives. Loretta Lynchs Justice Department has, since November, shifted FBI employees to insure that, if youre illegally blocked by NICS from purchasing a firearm, you can never get your record corrected.
In 1999, Kasich voted to retain restrictive gun ban in Washington, D.C. Not only that, Kasich joined the effort to pass 90% of Clintons anti-gun agenda as a form of gun control lite.
Elements of the Kasich/Clinton agenda included:
(1) Provisions making it virtually impossible to legally teach kids how to use firearms;
(2) A gun show ban (masquerading as a gun show Instant Check); and
(3) Mandates to require you to lock up your guns.
Had Clinton been successful in passing his post-Columbine anti-gun agenda, it would have provided a legislative platform, which easily could have eviscerated the Second Amendment over the last decade-and-a-half.
But Kasich’s efforts to outlaw guns — drip-by-drip — continues to this day.
Kasich continues to be a chief advocate of actual or de facto amnesty, claiming that enforcing our immigration laws would be inhumane.
Of course, if Kasich gets his way, the legalization of 11 million illegals will have the same effect on the American electorate that the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli amnesty had on California. The country as a whole would become deep anti-gun blue.
And, of course, Kasich was one of the first RINOs to legitimize the anti-gun ObamaCare program by bringing its massive Medicaid segment into his state.
Now, all it will take is for Obama to implement a computer search of Kasich’s Medicaid beneficiaries for PTSD, Alzheimers, and other mental defectives, and the gun rights of tens of thousands of law-abiding Ohioans could be jeopardized.
And all of this was done by Kasichs particularly nasty form of politics which he is now trying to morph, incredibly, into his Mr. Nice act.
These actions, of course, reflect the hatred for guns by Kasichs patron, George Soros.
You may remember that when Soros launched his campaign of exposes designed to destroy the conservative movement piece-by-piece, his first target was Gun Owners of America — which Soros viewed as even more dangerous than the Koch brothers.
But perhaps as bad as Kasichs anti-gun record is his determination to destroy the GOP selection process for personal gain.
Surely, even the vainglorious Kasich understands that, the longer he stays is the race, the longer the divided field makes it easier for an establishment candidate to hijack the process at the convention.
By becoming the REAL chaos candidate, Kasich helps destroy the Republican Party by throwing the nomination to someone who is despised by the grassroots. In so doing, Kasich does the bidding of his master, George Soros.

He enjoys an A rating from the NRA as he has changed his stance on the 2nd amendment. Pray tell, how does this differ from another front running candidates equally changing position on several conservative values?

People send you money, in sacks. You can keep it, as long as you are running for something.
Also, you can pay your self money to do things for your candidacy.
So, you get a few million (MILLION) a week, to shuck and jive, and talk smack.
Many people would kill for far less.
Good to be a candidate.

so apparently some rubio delegates in alaska went to trump due to rubio leaving too early. Perhaps this is one of the reasons kasich hasnt left yet... That and the Romney/Bush Super PAC is using Kasich as a vehicle to deliver negative ads on Trump to get Trumps overall numbers down and make it seem he cant win in the general election.

Kasich being backed by Soros is also a dead give away as to his (Kasich’s) true agenda.

Some of those Alaska delegates went to Cruz, as well.

Right now, he is in for the same reason Cruz is still in - to stop Trump. Kasich knows and likes that it will help the GOPe and Cruz doesn’t seem to care that it will help them while he helps give the WH to Hillary.

He sounded pretty squishy on the AWB less than a year ago:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2LMWQ0W0is
It sounds to me like he only opposes it now because he doesn’t think it will work, not because he has any problem with the idea of it. That’s not a candidate I want to vote for any time soon.

Kasich is getting that creepiness aura lately, as he spends more time on the national stage. He's bragging that his plan all along has been to steal the nomination. FWIW, as Governor of OH he did NOTHING to discourage violent protestors from disrupting the four OH Trump rallies after Chicago's melee. My sneaking suspicion as that he was thinking that disruptions would've advanced his personal agenda.
FWIW, I was CYBERSCREAMING since before the primaries began that Kasich is a dangerous, focused campaigner. I got shouted down by Cruzers who thought it was okay for him to be in there because he was thought to be irrelevant.
Our concern should be that Romney and Kasich's antics before the OH primary might have handed OH to hillary.

Cruz is in this race because he is the only Conservative in this race.
Trump supported a previous attempt to ban semi automatic weapons, himself.
It is TRUMP who is a RINO here, just as Kasich is.
For assault weapon ban, waiting period, & background check I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With todays Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record. (Source: The America We Deserve, by Donald Trump, p.102 , Jul 2, 2000)

Cruz is not in the race to “stop Trump”. Cruz was the first to announce if you will remember. If anything it is the other way around.
