I know there are other candidates but Trump is too narcissistic and I don't think he is a Republican or conservative. Bush is cursed by his name and Carson/Kasich aren't truly viable at least not in SC. So between Rubio and Cruz as alternatives to Trump who do you like? Others are welcome to discuss any potential POTUS candidates but I am particularly interested in discussing these two.
OT: Cruz or Rubio

I am a Rubio lean ATM.
Gowdy, Haley, and Scott endorsements sure do say a lot.
Would love to see a Rubio/Kasich Ticket!

Think Rubio would fair better as a unifier . But I think Kasich as a leader and communicator is a better choice as he has a record of same . Just IMHO
When it comes down to it, both of them vote the same way 90% of the time. The biggest difference is how they deliver their message. And people will become upset if either one of them becomes President, b/c they will have to make deals to get things done. Unless the Republican Party can win 60 seats in the Senate, and that's not going to happen. Our Forefathers built a system so deals would have to be done. You can act like an ideologue all you want, but when you become President, you have to learn to tuck your pride.
Think I am voting in primary for Bernie hoping it helps him beat Hillary. From there I will take whoever wins republican nomination. I feel like Hillary will totally finish ruining the country where Obama began
Ok, general consensus seems to be Cruz sucks. I know he and Rubio aren't that different. Cruz has a stellar background in everything except being sympathetic while Rubio has a decent background and is much more amiable. 2 Questions. Are you fearful of a Bernie president due to the socialist idealism that could very easily hurt this country economically or do you think the Republican congress would just create a stalemate? Second, how do you actually think a Trump presidency would go?
