This election cycle, whether one has a horse in the race or not, is quite compelling. The fireworks provided by Trump and his bombastic campaigning and Cruz’ alleged delegate pilfering, not to mention Kasich’s refusal to see the handwriting on the wall, has made this season much like a train wreck, where one just can’t look away.
Perhaps, because of the Trump phenomenon, people are paying more attention than ever before regarding the election process and are being educated about what could happen should a brokered convention occur. However, should long standing primary and caucus rules, put in place at the state level, be changed because the tightness of the race is making that the candidates cry “unfair”?
The controversy in Colorado over Cruz’ victory stems from a vote to squash an initiative that would bring the state primary back, allowing Coloradans to vote. Instead the state still uses the caucus system to select the candidate.
Truth and Action quipped, “Strange things are afoot in the Colorado election process, with Cruz delegates, voting to crush an initiative that would have allowed Coloradans the ability to vote in a state primary. Why would the sponsor of the bill, Sen. Kevin Grantham, vote against it?
“The caucuses guarantee lackluster voter participation and the disproportionate influence of activists on both ends of the political spectrum who are not representative of the parties’ mainstream. Some romanticize the caucus system as the purest form of grass-roots democracy, but that’s only accurate if your idea of democracy involves excruciatingly low turnout — by design.”
Now Missouri is under the microscope regarding delegate selection and some Republicans are complaining about the process. Read about it on the next page.
GET OUT CRUZ; YOUR MOUTH IS AS BIG AS THE GRAND CANYON AND YOU NEED TO SHUT UP AND QUIT TRYING TO STEAL THE ELECTION DELEGATES. ITS CALLED VOTER FRAUD.
I recall the reason he declined the debate was that he had a longstanding commitment . Besides if he would have said one tiny something to Ms. Megan Kelly people like you would have been all over him.

He’s no coward, unless you consider yourself one.
Ken Shamblin trump is hardly a coward in fact he has proven himself to be a leader and courageous in pointing out the system is broken and there are not leaders he is correct I take it you are not a leader amongst your peers are you? The opposite of a leader is a coward
Ted Cruz does not share the fairness values of the American public — rather, he shares the twisted values of the RNC.
Deport that asshole
He makes an excellent example of a sleazy political opportunist to be reviled.
Lying Ted
Cruz won’t last till mid May.
