Politics is a dirty business, played by politicians according to their own convoluted set of rules. That is why it is so hard for a non-politican to win office. The rules keep changing, and the powers that be make sure that the insiders win so that they can all keep scratching one another’s backs.
This election cycle has been a particularly odd one, and the front runner for the Republican party is outsider and non-politician Donald Trump. That is not to say that Trump has been above his own set of dirty tricks, he has masterfully played the press, his opposition, and the public. One does not become a wealthy developer in New York City without gaining skills in the rough and tumble of business and negotiating.
One of the main reasons that Trump has gained traction is that Mr. Average Citizen is sick and tired of the games and cronyism that Establishment Republicans have been playing for years, leaving the average citizen in the lurch and keeping Wall Street and their political friends in the money. So it seems that finally average Republicans will have a say in who runs the show. But wait, not so fast!

Lycrusia Jackson Leslie Estes An open letter to CO Senator Cory Gardner (R) from a disenfranchised Colorado voter:
Dear Senator Gardner,
You lied on Fox News’ ‘On the Record with Greta’ repeatedly, but the lie that stands out as perhaps the most egregious is when you said “these rules have been in effect in Colorado for 100 years since President Taft” in attempt to justify the way Colorado’s delegates were stolen from Trump.
FACT: At one time Colorado held a primary. This was changed to a straw poll caucus in 2002, supposedly due to “CO GOP budget restraints” where at least, as flawed as it was, all registered Republican’s still had the right to participate. Then it was changed to the delegates-only convention which occurred for the first time THIS year. It’s been this way for 100 YEARS?! We will remember your poor grasp of Colorado history when it comes time to reelect you should you attempt to remain in office.
Let it be known that five months ago I attempted to contact Steve House, CO Republican Party Chairman, to learn how I could participate in the caucuses. I mentioned that I changed my affiliation back to Republican because of Trump after 10 years as an Independent. Big mistake. I was never able to get a return call or the information I repeatedly requested. When I contacted the County Clerk in Adams CO where I resided, I was told they didn’t have a clue how the “new rules” worked and they gave me House’s phone number again. I informed them he was not returning my calls and asked for another contact. They said they had none.
This was a carefully crafted plan to keep CO Republican constituents in the dark to insure Trump would not win any CO delegates. Senator, I wonder what the RNC promised you in exchange for handing them an entire state? To heck with the voters, you have a career to build, right?
As a registered Republican I feel totally disenfranchised. I’m leaving the party and will likely never vote Republican again, except for Donald Trump should he get the nomination. If he doesn’t get it then I am writing in his name. But as for all other offices I will vote Independent or Libertarian. I’m done supporting establishment Cheshire-Cat-grinning representatives such as yourself.
Shame on you senator.

In 1960 Nikita Khrushchev spoke out against USA in front of group at UN saying ” We will bury USA and your children will become communist someday ” HUH? I remember that when I was 14 yrs old at this time. How do you think about that? Go figure. …… Think about Trump in 2016.
Nancy Magulias Trump/Carson are the ONLY choice because they are Not controlled, and why so many are against them! Worse is the Psychopathic, Narcissistic, TRAITOR, ….. https://youtu.be/AmwNrNaTcs4 …….. intending to use the Muslim CULT to destroy the USA, and obtain world$#%&!@* If you are aware of Soros and the Bilderberg Group supporting One World Order, then you realize only Trump & Carson ARE NOT owned and controlled by them. If the TRAITOR is not removed first however, we will never see another election! “The best way to take control of the people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time, to erode rights by a thousand tiny and almost imperceptible reductions. In this way, the people will not see those rights and freedoms being removed, until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed!” -Adolf$#%&!@* Mein Kampf.
Lycrusia Jackson Trump made billions by playing with the “big boys” most of his life! He has put forward the ideas and proposals to retake America! With the corruption in our Government, he has made the most common sense. With advisory help, maybe we can remove the TRAITORS! (Above Comment) https://youtu.be/mZYjgicQOJU
