Monmouth University Poll, conducted toward the end of August, have Donald Trump and Dr. Ben Carson in a tie at 23%.
Trump with his larger than life campaign, controversial, in your face attitude–a man who has vowed to never take money from the GOP establishment (or any one else, he is funding himself), wears well with the “fly over country” mid-west.
It seems, so does Ben Carson.
His mild mannered, no nonsense attitude. Respectful nature, without much fan fare, yet his message is solid, no question is answered with a “non-answer”—and he is an “outsider”.
Two men, opposites in their approach and stage presence, in a tie for what they share–they have never held office, are not card carrying members of the GOP good ole’ boys club.

It would be great if they can get together and rescue USA and make this Country the great country it was!!!!
Yes it will, you can fight it Tim, but it’s going to happen.
trump president , cruz vp.
Look guys our country is too far gone; we need someone like Trump….Trump and Cruz would be a good balance!
I see it this way, the Democrats know what it takes to remain/get in office. Instead of attacking one another they push a few good choices. They understand as long as someone in their party is in office they will be able to continue pushing their corrupt agendas. The Republicans need to stop fighting amongst themselves and support a few good choices. They also need to understand that if they do this, they will have a really good chance at being hired for really good positions once a Republican has been voted in.
