    I'm not worried about that. President Obama has been dividing this country and increasing tension between races for quite some time now and there have been no attempts towards taking him out. I have confidence in the ability of the secret service to do their job.

    Don't get it twisted. Obama's "divisiveness" stems from, one could argue, his arrogance, because it's true, it's just very difficult to communicate with people that flat-out reject facts. And that's the Republican party right now.

    On the contrary, Trump's divisiveness is condemning countries and religions. That's different than Obama just ignoring Congress for their foolishness.

    I was referring to Obama's pandering to black activist groups in the face of white on black violence and complete silence when faced with similar black on white violence. The man is a racist and has driven a wedge in between blacks and non-blacks in this country.

    Here we go. This is the pivot point, as the wingnuts begin to embrace Trump because they don't have an alternative.

    Go ahead, do it. I honestly don't give a **** if this idiot becomes president.

    I mean, maybe it'll all be okay; or maybe it'll be just funny enough to justify ending life as we know it. Like said either way I don't GAF.

    Obama was so wrong to ignore those black on white crime protests that captured national attention.

    Not being a white supremacist doesn't make one racist. And FYI, Obama has laid down some brutally honest lectures at black organizational meetings. Those don't tend to make the news, especially since it doesn't fit the Fox narrative you have clearly swallowed. The Republican Party drew the line in the sand before the man was even sworn in.

    Isn't that what politicians do ALL OF THE TIME?!?! They promise sweet nothings to the folks for votes and then go out of their way for the lobbyists. But it doesn't stop them from selling their version of the truth and brand to their constituents. I mean **** Hilary does this **** all of the time. All I hear from her, is I did this and I did that. Most of it half truths and versions that make her look good. That's her brand right?!?! Obama, Bush, all of them sell bull**** and don't ever quit. Sounds like The Donald fits right in the political game.

    I dislike Trump but this KKK "news" is such a farse it's embarrassing. If you fall for that propaganda hit piece you're an idiot. They did the same thing to Ron and Rand Paul and Fox News did the same to Obama. The media is powerful but it's controlled by even more powerful folks. If you believe that crap then you are also under their control.

    This is just all so embarrassing for conservatives, but it's very worrisome for all Americans. At what point do you acknowledge the danger and potential devastation if your party's leading candidate, Donald Trump, finds a way into the White House? The SINISTER ideology that this man wants to set into motion is terrifying. Since when has anyone considered a man with clear psychological issues as a viable leader for America? Have people forgotten the amount of power The donald would have as POTUS? I don't comprehend how anyone could voluntarily vote for someone who would make America the laughing stock of the WORLD. The mere mention of his name spawns reminders of how intolerant the man is of different religions and cultural practices. We might as well be honest and recognize that his name will always be a reminder of the strong existence of racism that still haunts our country. Do we really want that kind of "person" as the voice of America?

    Even though I don't agree with their principles, I'd greatly accept a defeat in the general election if it meant that Rubio, Cruz, a lying Ben Carson or, heck, the most reasonable republican candidate, Kasich, were elected over Donald Trump. ANYONE would be a better choice for both Dems and Repubs, but more importantly, our families and loved ones.

    We can do better. I just hope it's not too late for some people to let go of their stubbornness, attraction to the fringe and moral deficits of Trump and their various frustrations towards the current state of society.

    Nobody is thrilled with how things are, but voting for Trump would create problems for everyone, regardless of where you categorize your political beliefs.

    Remember what I said yesterday, super Tuesday is tomorrow, the media and establishment will do anything to destroy Trump's character. The attack is full mode! Don't fall for the dirty tricks.

    exactly, why do people like to be controlled? Think for yourself for a change. I think deep down inside people want to believe the media's lies.

    I have to agree. It seems like we're experiencing the death throes of the Trump opposition.
