It is predictably strange how our system is unfair and "Rigged" to Donald Trump, unless he wins as in New York. This convention is poised to be an excellent circus.

I disagree with the term "circus". It is how true democracy will pick the absolute BEST candidate, not necessarily the most popular one. I think it will be quite exciting!

I don't believe it will tear apart the GOP at all. Sure, "some" voters will be angry, but they'll get over it after they see what a great President we elect after all.

Look, the voters at large include a high percentage of "low information voters". The delegates on the other hand, are MUCH more well informed, and have and should have a right to use their own conscience to chose after the 1st round.

I agree 100% that "the system" is set up well to weed out all less than the best candidates.

I agree that should someone clinch enough delegates to win in 1st round of convention voting, SHOULD be the nominee. But I disagree that someone who has the most delegates after the Primaries, but falls short of getting a MAJORITY of all delegates "deserves" to be the nominee. Such a person only deserves to be included in the 2nd round of delegate voting.

If the delegates chose Trump are you still OK with the "the system". Or will you then have to decide that it must be broken?

The "System" IS going to choose Trump and thus will HillBill be the next POTUS. It is the GOP that is broken.

I honestly expect a 4 way race. I don't see Sanders and Trump simply going home if they lose their nomination fights.
