And to be honest, none of the true RNC candidates impress me. Yes, many are true conservatives. Good pure ideals.
But would people vote for them??

We can't win with out a few Independents and Dems to vote for our candidate. Guess what folks...
McCain and Romney did not have much support. I did vote for them but it was not in support. It was against the Democratic candidate. If we put a true blue religious conservative candidate on the ballot___it's not going to garner the necessary support.

Idealism! Religion! not gonna carry the necessary votes.
Yes, more and more people are waking up to Hillary and Sanders and the LEFT. But America today is not truly a religious nation (sorry) and if we try to force another " limited national support" candidate on the ballot....it will be another loss.

I would almost vote libertarian, but I know that is truly throwing my vote away. Last 2 elections____many Republicans did not like the candidates forced on them, so they stayed home.

It may sound like giving up but we cannot survive another Leftist running our nation.

Is Trump a true Republican. Maybe not, but who can get nation wide support and not be a puppet for a lobby or corporation?
He is at least able to be free of the RNC control.
