CFCman:Truely,next week will be interesting to watch. I just hope he bows out peacefully and gracefully and accept defeat so that Hillary can focus on the bigger picture especially her current drive to get more Democrats in Congress. 2 Likes |

Trump has been allocated 89 delegates, Kasich 3, and Cruz 0 NY delegates. As it stands, in order to get to the magic number of 1,237: -Trump needs to win 52% of the remaining delegates -Sen Ted Cruz needs to win 91% of the remaining delegates; and -Governor Kasich would need to win 146%. It's safe to say both Cruz and Kasich are mathematically out of the race. Their only hope of becoming the Republican presidential nominee is by way of a contested convention in Cleveland, Ohio. 1 Like 1 Share |

What a race. |
Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by Nobody: 8:23pm On Apr 20, 2016 |
itstpia8:Counting super delegates, Hillary only needs 30% of the remaining pledged delegates to get to the magic number of 2,742 needed to clinch the nomination. Without super delegates, she needs like 57% of the remaining pledged delegates. |

I want them to match to the convention . Let the plays unfold. I really don't want them to leave at least not yet...give Trump some hard time. It is a shame for them to leave at this time anyway Esp Cruz. CFCman: |

armyofone: The convention will be bloody! If Cruz loses in Indiana, then Trump will get the required 1,237 del on the first ballot But Cruz will likely stay in the race till June 7 for the California primary |

Missy89:I don't see her accepting to be a relatively powerless VP. Liberals would need her as the champion of their values in Congress. Someone like Senator Amy Klobuchar, who will turn 56 on election day, could more likely be selected. She is from the Mid-west, which would give the ticket some regional balance. |

CFCman: What worries me is that some Bernie supporters wont vote for Hilary in November. About 40% according to some polls |
Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by Nobody: 8:10pm On Apr 21, 2016 |
Missy89:Those Bernie supporters will still end up voting HRC. If they sit out the election, HRC will win only because she has 10% less unfavorability rating than Trump. |

If Hillary does choose a female candidate as her running mate,she'll need a face that can unite all Democrats and help her with the dogged Bernie supporters.The nation will need a face that is promising,a champion of American democracy and values,someone who will cut across racial lines of white to black and hispanic voters. Above all,a female running mate that would be considered a suitable option for the office of President should Hillary be incapacitated to carry out her duties. I wish her the very best and I'd like to see a female-female ticket.A step to further champion women's voices across the globe. 1 Like |

ValerianSteel:Women like Rep.Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii) or Kamala Harris, California's attorney general, fit your description. But Kamala is running for Senate, and may not likely drop her ambition. Gabbard resigned as vice-chair of the DNC due to a perceived bias in favor Hillary by the DNC |

CFCman:https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics/2016/04/21/hillary-clinton-top-female-choices-ranked/ii7GWuUCUjhAdHYqqvVEPO/story.html Boston Globe has a list of 5 possible female picks. Elizabeth Warrn,Janet Napolitano,Jeanne Shaheen,Amy Klobuchar,Patty Murray. |
Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by Nobody: 1:42am On Apr 22, 2016 |
^^ There is talk of not choosing a Senator in order not to risk having Republicans retain their majority in the body. Thus, Hillary could be inclined to pick Janet Napolitano, who was a former governor of Arizona and has federal executive experience as Secretary of Homeland Security. Other possible safe picks, following this theory, could be Senator Klobuchar and Kamala Harris. Klobuchar's Minnesota senate seat could be filled by the Democratic governor of the state. Also, the California senate seat Kamala Harris is running for would definitely be won by a Democrat. |

A close Trump aid is basically saying that all what Trump is doing is an 'act'. He will pivot to the center after the primaries. Always knew something about Trump was phony. 2 Likes |

An accurate explanation of how Trump could be the GOP nominee. Donald Trump currently has at least 846 delegates, according to the NBC News tally, and he can still clear the magic number of 1,237 during the primary season. Doing so would prevent the open convention that Ted Cruz and the Stop Trump movement are banking on. Here’s what it would take: |

It's a long article on Hillary's Foreign Policy and her Military Stance. Will Hillary deliver America from the claws of Foreign Military entanglements or will she further them? http://nytimes.com/2016/04/24/magazine/how-hillary-clinton-became-a-hawk.html |

After much speculation, there are just two women reportedly on Hillary's short list for VP, according to close advisers and party insiders. They are Senators Elizabeth Warren (Massachusetts) and Amy Klobuchar (Minnesota) |
Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by ValerianSteel(m): 10:18am On Apr 24, 2016 |
CFCman:From what I read on the NYTimes,the only hitch to Amy Klobuchar is that she's not a popular face nationally. You know Senator Warren up till now hasn't endorsed Hillary.If there's anyone with the experience and intelligence to shut down the likes of Chris Christie in the VP debate,she's the one. |
