On July 1, CNN released a poll for the race for the Republican presidential nomination, showing that three candidates are tied for tenth place at 3%. If polls continue in this vein, it will be very difficult for Fox, the sponsor of the August 6 Republican presidential debate, to decide who is in their chief debate (although Fox has already said it will have another debate for those not in the top ten but who are at 1%). See this story. Fox says the top ten candidates will be in the chief debate.
How about pick the names out of a SCOTUS dumpster ???
If it was on the Comedy Channel I might watch! Otherwise, who really cares?
Any debate that will feature Donald Trump and Ben Carson but not Lindsay Graham and John Kasich seems to have used the wrong criteria for inclusion.
Why not just let them all in? Really, viewers can handle it.
Casual,
Isn’t Fox Channel the Comedy Channel?
Brad… good point!
The Democrats are hoping for both Donald Trump and Chris Christie in the debate, or even on the ticket.
If Gov. Christie gets the nomination, the Democrats already have an attack ad planned. It will go something like this:”Nobody got stuck in traffic on the Chappaquiddick Bridge!”
What a circus it is going to be!
They’ll have elephants and popcorn and it is going to be good fun when that little itty-bitty car pulls up on stage at the Fox debate and ten comical clowns spill out.
And the gymnastic gyrations by candidates to avoid providing solid answers to debate questions will be Cirque de Soleil-esque!!!
Donald Trump is the GOP’s George Wallace. He may not win the nomination, but the millions that one assumes he will spend in the primaries definitely will have an influence – assuming he does not pull out early – on who will be the nominee.
Gene Berkman, I’m not so sure if Donald Trump is the GOP nominee that he would be a pushover in the General Election.
Trump speaks his mind, and would challenge Clinton on matters that a typical timid Republican like a Walker or a Bush would not dare bring up.
If he gets Clinton rattled, it could cause the voters to view her differently.
The 9th USA Parliament has been uniting candidates from all parties (and independents) for 20 consecutive years and it works fine.
Pure proportional representation (PR), ranked choice voting in multi-winner districts of two or more, the Sainte-Lague parliament seat distribution system, hagenbach-Bischoff method is THE inclusive, unifying voting system that helps our team identify and attract team players.
The establishment media can’t accept unity as they believe good reporting involves division psychology. Established political parties are also for division; that they are the only way and everyone else is bad.
But pure proportional representation is able to make working with large numbers of people a breeze.
We at the USA Parliament have been promoting unity for twenty consecutive years. Our voting allows continual self-improvements and evolution with every ranked choice vote that gets factored into the whole.
Our team is for the 100% and nobody has it as good as our team at the 9th USA Parliament. Our 15 candidates for President are the people who are interested in working with the whole, to find solutions and for being part of the government.
We will continue to grow every day by attracting and including more and more team players.
We welcome teamwork and we are able to work with all people, having never removed a single person from the team since founding in 1995 even though there is a mechanism for removing those using threats of force and violence.
Nobody has it better than out team. We’re a political entity like none you’ve ever known.
