August 6 a month away the first Republican Debate

How the RNC allowed this big of a clown car is beyond me, but damn it will be entertaining.  So who will be the Republican Candidate who takes Mr. Trump apart?..........and you cannot write in Bozo.....he is driving the car.

In days past, early 1970s comes to mind, the Democrats had a large group of dogs in the pack for President. Newspapers and news magazines were filled with "platforms" of the candidates. We actually had assignments in school to draw tables to place issues by candidates.

I remember when Barack Obama stepped on the stage in the 2008 election. Could not find a "platform" just words...hope and change.

Vague.

Vague wins.

Vague did not win.  Specific won.

Vague is a Republican thing, and that gets you a commercial to buy Gold.

There's one name missing from your list...Trump himself. I think he can do it all without any help.
