So now The Donald wants drug tests... I thought this was politics not the Tour De France. It seems that his team are so keen to spin (I thought that was an Establishment tactic) that they will even have people silenced when they ask awkward Yes or No questions: 'Cut her mic' moment left me flabbergasted. At least Ben Carson did not try to touch her up! How can a country of 320 million people not manage to find two candidates capable of running the country?
I must admit that's been puzzling me for some time. Not sure what that tells us, or the rest of the World for that matter
Unfortunately without a massive personal fortune or mega-wealthy donors (who expect things in return) to back your campaign it is nigh on impossible for an "ordinary" American to consider running for President. At least in the UK every MP has a theoretical chance of being PM by becoming leader of their party and it is not wealth driven.

I wonder what decided dear ol Melania to forgive her billionaire husband for that offensive locker room banter as Mrs Merton doubtless would have asked if she was still with us.
I don't think any other English-speaking (?)** person has ever reminded me so much of another crazy character of days gone by, both having strange hair styles, one with a Charlie Chaplin moustache too. **e.g. "bigly"?? which I thought he had coined, BUT, it is actually a word used a lot by Google fans! The Concise Oxford has its meaning as "with great force" Well I'll be................ http://www.businessinsider.de/bigly-is-the-top-trending-search-term-on-google-2016-10?r=US&IR=T
It's a shame Charlie Chaplin was not still with us; he could add 'Dick Trumpf' to his portrayal of 'Adenoid Hynkel'. Strangely enough I heard an Italian or Italian American commentator/journalist on the wireless who compared 'The Donald' to 'Il Duce' and went on to compare Mussolini's rise to power with some of the crap which is spouted by the New York Jaffa!
Probably more accurate, BK. Remember a little round fat kid (complete with round face) at school, looked just like Il Duce, so of course his nickname was "Musso da Wop". Stuck with him till he left.
SH; children can be so cruel! Hope this was not in 'Primary' school; imagine being eleven or under and bearing a resemblance to Benito! Just thought about the book (Robert Harris) and TV series 'Selling Hitler' about the discovery of supposed diaries by Herr Schicklgruber; Alexei Sayle (top left in image) would make a marvellous 'Il Duce'!
No, he was too young to be able to act like that, just looked like Musso. He was not my 'chum', way younger than I.
OK, to draw the curtain on my interest in this whole saga, I've just now taken the 1.39 about Hillary (originally laid at 1.36), not for the small-change profit, but just to get myself out of this whole sorry mess. She may well drift further in the next week, but I really don't care any longer and my only real regret is devoting so much time and attention to this nonsense over the past 15 months. I'm afraid I can't do links, but if anyone cares to put 'Officer Tom Downey + Fappy the Dolphin' into a search box, you'll see what I mean. You can't bet on anything that's determined by the subjective views of crazy people, and I wouldn't let the people of Arizona vote, let alone breed.
I was just thinking about you rainer, now that Trump's odds have halved. Wondered if you might see this as an opportunity to get out. Can't say I blame you
