Almost a year ago, four Colorado Republican Senators killed an initiative that would restore the presidential primary in 2016. Since 2003, Colorado has used a caucus process to nominate the presidential candidate. By cancelling the presidential primary, the state saved an estimated $2.2 million, but why would four Republicans choose to squash this initiative, sponsored by one of their own?
The initiative, introduced to restore the primary system, as reported by the Denver Post said, “Under the bill, Colorado would have held a presidential primary in March that ran parallel with the state’s complicated caucus system… when it came before the Senate Appropriations Committee, four Republicans voted to kill the bill with three Democrats supporting it.”
Sen. Kevin Grantham, who sponsored the bill, then voted against it. He is also a Cruz delegate.
The shenanigans in Colorado demonstrate the dirty business that is politics. Truth and Action report:
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!

Never any charges, which strongly suggests they are in Obama’s regime.
Isn’t that the truth!!!
Ya think? Lyin Ted is proud of the sneaky way he got those delegates. He’d never give them back in a show of honor or integrity.
F**k Cruz…. I will vote for Hilary if Cruz gets the Republican nod.
Cruz the Canadian go back to Canada we already have a none American president ( obama ) ! Thanks to the traitors in the democrat / republican parties ! You guys need to brush up on the Constitution ! And stop being so anti American !!
Seems to me, that it’s time for the second American Revolution. The law itself says that we have the right to rid ourselves of a tyrannical, oppressive government.
Here is your problem…he is in bed with the establishment that can change the rules as they want to….and by shutting down the peoples right to vote they can come in and bribe the delegates with gifts, etc to be bound to him…
Time for a Constitutional election by the people.
That’s wrong
We the People are fed up with The ESTABLISHMENT and Voting for TRUMP
