    Be very careful of alliances, they are the transmission belts to war. The war state grows our government excessively and an excessive government encroaches on our freedom so foreign policy cannot really be separated from domestic policy.

    We have no rocks or reefs in the South China Sea yet we are in the middle of this quarrel between China and Vietnam, Taiwan, Malaysia, Brunei and the Philippines — why?

    If China is behaving improperly why not impose tariffs on Chinese goods and let U.S. companies and consumers pay the price of battling Beijing rather than U.S. soldiers, sailors and airmen.

    Why can't South Korea and Japan build up their forces to deal with North Korea and China? South Korea and Japan can build their own nuclear deterrents just as Britain and France did 50 years ago. Why must we deter and if need be, fight North Korea?

    Why is the defense of the Baltic republics and East Europe our responsibility rather than Germany’s, whose economy is far larger than that of Russia and they are 5,000 miles closer?

    During the Cold War we did nothing to protect Hungary, Czechoslovakia or Poland yet now the independence of Eastern Europe has become so vital an interest that we would now risk war with a nuclear-armed Russia?

    Article 5 of NATO says an attack upon any of 28 allied nations is to be regarded as an attack upon all. So Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan has a blank check to drag us into war with Russia?

    It is time to reappraise all of the war guarantees we have issued since the beginning of the Cold War to determine which still serve U.S. national interests and end the ones that do not.

    This is putting our country first, This is staying out of other people’s wars. This is patriotism.

    Only vote for him if he wins the primaries would have rather had a choice between Rubio or Paul. But this election cycle both on Democrat and Republican side shows why we need to either do away with the PARTY system or take a 3 party system. If Sanders isn't the nominee and Trump is snuffed out they should run on the independent ticket. This is the worst election cycle in my life time. They all suck. Clinton a liar, Sanders a socialist running on the wrong ticket, democrat and Trump also running on the wrong ticket. As I see him as a moderate and perhaps that is why people are supporting him. I am a moderate or more specifically a centrist.

    No one running represents my political views.

    We need to end the two party system. In fact I would support a no party system and candidates that just RUN for the Presidency. The Supreme Court previously has voted it unconstitutional to limit what each candidate can spend or the amount backers can independently spend to support a candidate. In order to change this would take an amendment to the constitution.

    More evident than ever is the fact that voters don't select their candidate through the primaries of either party but rather it it is the Delegates of the parties. Wrong...needs changed. I only recently learned that they can change the rules to get rid of candidates they, the party don't want regardless of what members of the party want. I.e. RON Paul in 2008.

    There should be three tickets if we don't do away with all tickets. The third should be independent, moderate, libertarian.

    So I will vote for Trump if he is the Republican candidate as he is the most moderate and the most libertarian as is sanders. Clinton is a liar, should be indicted and definitely doesn't support our individual civil rights.

    The idea is to make corporations more competitive by working with them.

    Nothing.
    The low info rightwing voter just needs simple slogans they can cling to, "drill baby drill" for example, the simpler the better.

    Please learn the meaning of 'fascist', you will look 100% less foolish.
    I will never understand how the cons always change the definition of words to suit their hate filled agendas and think it's alright to do so.

    I am not an American but as a man belong international population, I believe Trump is not a right person for presidency and he mostly is worthy to be in a boxing ring declaiming to opponents before competition. He also is a skillful imitator in a lecture and can mock his rivals masterly.
    I think he has become candidate for presidency to not be elected deliberately! In the other word, It sounds he is provoking voters to go in the Hilary Clinton's net! lol

    Because there isnt a better option.

    If there was another self funded billionaire, that was tough on immigration, puts Americans first, can improve the economy, make a dent in the national debt. then I would vote for him over Trump.

    But the only options I have is..

    Sanders, a socialist. and socialism has failed in every country ever..

    Clinton a complete failure as secretary of state, being investigated by the FBI soo maybe a harder job will work out for her??

    Cruz He was born in Canada! he cant even be president. the whole "birther" movement about Obama was because it was thought he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii.. so now I guess it doesn't even matter where your born? No thanks, I want a prez that actually sticks to the constitution..

    Trump meets all of my requirements, but he comes across as an ass. if he has a chance at winning he better start actually acting like a president. I love the non PC nature, but there is anti PC and just being a immature (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*).. he needs to figure it out quick.

    When has nationalism ever done anything positive?

    You think that but you have no evidence of it because it simply isn't close to the truth.

    Yep, land of the free and all that......

    Why do we have to do it?
    Yes bush the lesser created them but why should we spend more blood and treasure getting rid of something we will NEVER get rid of?

    Good pitch, you should be his PR guy, but sadly when Trump is asked about his own outsourcing he dodges the question. A wise man would tackle his own history of outsourcing as dodging the issue lessens his credibility.

    I agree, I'd much rather do it for a paycheck and the country than just for the country :D

    I agree again, and it is all because he hasn't hired me as his PR guy yet :D

    As a non-American, I feel that it's my responsibility to vote for Hillary Clintone. After all, registering non-citizens to vote is how the Democrats steal elections.
