Donald Trump and Politics?
Just heard on the news yesterday he might take the Republican nomination to run for Governor. What do you think? I think he's more of a Libertarian..but we all know he has to be either a Democrat or a Republican to win anything; that's for you hev

This is his stance on many issues:
http://www.issues2000.org/Donald_Trump.htm

Key points I noticed with Trump:
Pro-choice but ban partial birth
One-time 14.25% tax on wealth to erase national debt
Surprisingly opposes flat tax because it could benefit the rich
Let people invest their own retirement funds
Use force to stop North Korea nuke development

I bet if he would make an interesting and fun Governor. Who knows, he might even run for President in the future.

Re: Donald Trump and Politics?
Trump lets someone from his administration go...

you're fired!
--- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope ---

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
