Miami Cubans rejects calls to run Trump out of town on Mexican pole.
Reasons: Obama sold us all to his Banker friends, Wall Street, The Spies. and the Military. And gave "Presidential Cufflinks" to his Monica (Jamie Dimon). That's plenty. It's payback time for the War Party of The Rich's two Goldman Rats levers to pull. ( vote Trump or anyone else).

Speaking of artwork, I don't understand modern art. In one of my prior companies, they used to display art work.One was marked at 15k and was grey with three black dots and quite a few were very similar with same price ranges.
I don't understand it. if I get a board paint it solid and splash a few dots, I get 15k per board. I just need to do 10-15 boards a year and I am set??

The Republican nominee will be Jeb Bush, Scott Walker or possibly Marco Rubio.
End of message.

Whenever I see Donald Trump, I think of Archie Bunker. One day, I thought I'd google the names "Donald Trump" and "Archie Bunker" and I was shocked to learn that I'm not the first to see the similarities. He might have ideas I agree with, but he just doesn't have the grace to be a statesman. He certainly doesn't have the experience to navigate the political system to get anywhere near to bringing any of his ideas to fruition. And he lacks the polish necessary to represent us to the world. Wouldn't you find his manner a little embarrassing? As an old chair-potato, Archie was funny. As a leader of a nation, perhaps not so much.
As lower-case leader, he's used to having the final word and everyone else just doing as he says. He'd go out of his mind when he learns that Members and other world leaders don't answer to him. He probably thinks he knows this already, which is sad. I think being President would actually be quite a downer for him and his mismatched, brusque, heavy-handed, final-word leadership skills (however charming it might have seemed on the Apprentice). And on a world stage? Fuggedaboutit!

Yes, but think about it: if he and France's Sarkozy win, he can brag about dating his wife.

That's part of Trump's appeal! People are tired of politicians who are acting like politicians.

Having manners, class, poise, and being articulate and intelligent kind of grates on a person after a while. I'm much more comfortable with someone the rest of the world will think is a joke, you know the guy who was the C student in college, Frat party moron. The kind of guy that could get this country in some really serious trouble. We need someone like GW again (not his brother - he's not enough of a "i feel it in my gut" cowboy).

Agreed. It enraged putin enough to annex a neighbor and khomeni to start a nuclear arms race...

An End to Free Trade
Perhaps no single proposal by Donald Trump is as striking and antiquated as his strategy to keep American jobs from being "taken away" by foreign countries, such as Mexico and China.
Trump doesn't consider international trade to be a win-win proposition as do most modern economists. Instead, Trump believes that trade wars have clear winners and losers, and that currencies and trade restrictions must be used to ensure victory.
At various times throughout his campaign, Trump has pledged to put in place a 20% tariff on all imported goods. He told an audience that he would have told the CEO of Ford Motor Co. that he would have the government impose a 35% tariff on all Ford products if a Ford motor plant was shut down in Detroit and moved to Mexico. He has said that he would even impose a Chinese-specific tariff to offset the effects of Chinese currency manipulation.
Five-Point Tax Plan
Along with his 20% tariff on imported goods, Trump also wants to impose an additional 20% tax on companies that hire foreign workers.
The fifth part of the five-point plan is a simplified tax code with the following brackets: 1% tax on the first $30,000 in income, 5% tax on all income between $30,000 and $100,000, 10% tax on all income between $100,000 and $1 million, and a 15% rate on all income above $1 million.
Foreign Policy
Trump projects a hardline stance on illegal immigration, turmoil in the Middle East, and negotiations with China, Russia and Iran.
President Trump would push to build a physical wall on the border with Mexico. He proposed sending Exxon Mobil to Iraq to "take back the oil" to starve ISIS. However, he refuses to say whether he'd commit more American troops overseas.
