Yeah, Obama was a little known state senator a couple of years and a US Senator
a couple. He dipped his toe in the political waters. Never accomplished
anything as a Senator either.Yes, he got elected making speeches saying what
everyone wanted to hear without specifics. Didn't fool me though. I think there
were a couple of things in his favor. First, he was as Joe Biden put it, a
clean cut articulate black guy that didn't sound black. He was the perfect guy
to clear the conscience of white guilt. "I voted for the first black
President, that proves I'm not a racist!" Second, He was the perfect guy to
clear our conscience with the Arab middle-east after Iraq, a guy named Barrack
Hussein Obama. "They'll see that we really aren't Islamophobes!"
Obama proclaimed that he was the One that we've all been waiting for. Then he
went on his apology tour. Sure was a lot of guilt being accounted for.Would
Trump fool everyone? Hell, I don't know. He's not my guy but I understand why
people are supporting him.

You're forgetting that Obama was a Senator. Probably not long enough
though to have really good experience. He got elected making speeches that had
what people want to hear. Trump is doing that too with his speeches. Gonna be
fooled again?

Feste, he's not my ideal candidate either! However, he has just as much
qualifications as Obama did , if not more. At least Trump has management,
executive and negotiating skills and built his own multi-billion dollar
*empire*. All Obama ever did was be a *community organizer*, whatever that is.
Whatever his academic achievements were are perceived as being based on
affirmative action based. How does an American student get a Fulbright
Scholarship? I've always heard those are reserved for foreign students.
Trump's zero political office experience is perceived by many as a plus. A
lot of people are tired of being promised one thing and then those promises
abandoned. A lot of people are tired of career politicians. Yeah, Trump is
perceived as a *fighter*. Throw a punch at him and he counters ten times
harder. Wasn't it Obama that said" if they bring a knife to a fight, we bring a
gun"?
However, Trump is a negotiator, I've never known Obama to negotiate anything.
It's always my way or they high way.
If Trump is nominated, I think he's got a pretty good shot.He's attracting a
coalition that Republicans have dreamed of but rarely get. There are a lot of
independents that are attracted to him.

I still regard the Trump candidacy as an absurdity. Trump has no
qualifications to be US president. He has zero experience of political office.
He is unsuited by temperament to the office and would be a dangerous person to
be in that position of power. I do not believe he has a chance of being
elected.

Mike, thanks so much for your insights, very helpful.
I think the Tea Party totally screwed up the Republican Party and I also
think Trump, for that situation, is just what the doctor ordered.
Why does the RP hate Cruz? Just because he questions them? Or something more
specific?

It really is a dilemma isn't it. Trump is not a true conservative
but a populist. Trump is attracting people from all over the place. Many
undecideds, which is what Republicans have been after for years. Yet, they
don't trust the guy with his *New York* values which are ultra liberal. He is
to the left of most establishment Republicans but to the right of any
Democrat, which is why I think moderate(liberal) Republicans are starting to
find him a bit more acceptable. Ether him or Cruz, and that blows the mind of
establishment Republicans. Cruz just won't play ball with his *superiors*
and that really pisses them off! As long as the race is between the two, the
Republican establishment will eventually line up behind Trump whether they
like him or not because they hate Cruz.
