^ Believe me, no one will shed a tear for Donald Trump if he falls from his perch. I guess all that money actually DOES make a person go crazy.

The GoP should move to expel Trump from the Republican Party...kahit balde balde pa pera niya.

But the guy is like Teflon. I wish he gets the nomination so that Bernie Sanders become the next President.

There is no way Trump will win the GOP nomination. If he gets it, the party will split.

Worst case scenario would be Hillary as president.

She's a total neocon.

Might as well expect Iraq War 3.0 when she gets elected considering her track record of staunchly insisting on the Iraqi invasion, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria.

I want him to join the race but not to win. He will divide the democratic votes and handover a possible GOP win. However, I doubt Bloomberg will even consider being a candidate at this point. He should have made a decision already prior to the Iowa caucus.

hmmm... judging by the polls, this might turn out to be Cruz vs. Hillary.

but hey, why should anyone be surprised with establishment candidates getting nominated?

Trump and Sanders win first primary election.

I hope Trump becomes the GOP nominee so he'll get Berned!

NRA will not allow another democrat president. Whoever becomes the next one will install 4 new supreme court justices during the term. I don't like another liberal in Washington but I guess I will take whoever GOP picks. Imagine a Republican President, Supreme court, and Congress. That is scary.

I also want an indepent to sit in the White House, but there is no 3rd party candidate that is popular or winable.

^at least we don't have a two party system in the philippines...

I still recall just a couple of years ago people wanting that kind of voting system here...

if either Sanders or Trump wins, it's actually a good thing because it won't be an establishment candidate in the oval office.

neither of the two's policies are incompatible and pretty much go hand in hand

but honestly, I would have preferred a libertarian president, congress, and supreme court

but I don't mind a socialist president with a republican congress to keep his ridiculous economic policies in check as long as civil liberties are restored since Sanders is actually allied with Rand Paul et al.

If only the idiots Cruz, Trump and Carson didn't overshadow Rand Paul at the GOP...

Let's face it, the two-party system is showing major limitations... the same as the multi-party system here...

Where the specter of having an idiot like Trump or a contentious candidate like Hillary can influence people to vote for less-than-ideal candidates.

If Rand Paul actually endorses Sanders, that could be enough to swing undecided voters from whoever the Republicans finally decide on.

Hmmm... even without Rand or Ron Paul's endorsement, there's a number of libertarians voting for Sanders. Even the libertarian party's candidate Gary Johnson is already rooting for either Sanders or Trump.

Christie and Fiorina threw in the towel. I'm not surprised really. They should have done it a lot sooner.

I can't help but still admire the presidential election system in the US compared to ours in Pinas. The caucuses, primaries and debates really make the candidates go through the ringer.

In Pinas, there is practically no party system. Everything is personality based.

A Democrat will win in November. The GOP is too divided already to even challenge Trump, who'll not win in a general election.

Even if Bloomberg spends all his billions, won't win. No popular support, like what's happening with Jeb Bush.

Americans chose Obama in 08 and 12 and will choose Sanders this November.

Those who believe that Sanders is a socialist need to go back to their Pol Sci class.

He's a liberal democrat. A social democrat, at best

Bro. At best or at worst, depending on who's looking at it.....

You're right, depends on where you stand from the spectrum or hierarchy 😁

What's indisputable is that they have more exciting candidates than ours 😒

Bingo! Class war here we come, more free stuff for the slacker and tax the successful.
