I don't take seriously any candidate who has no political experience. Fiorina has no chance. I don't know why she is even running. Same with Ben Carson. He was a neurosurgeon, for heaven's sake. What makes him think that that qualifies him to be president? He is also on record as saying that Obamacare is the worst thing to happen to America since slavery, which gives you an idea of how ill-qualified he is. As for Trump, he offers nothing at all. I think, perhaps, a number of these people don't expect to be the next President but they are there to make a statement, to bring out aspects of policies or to present something in a new or different way as a means to contribute personally to making America 'aware'. All 11 of those people last night couldn't possibly believe they are going to be 'the one' to sit in the White House in 2016. Ben Carson seems like a decent human and perhaps feels like he has something to contribute during the process of electing the next President or wants to stand as another black presidential candidate. I only just started following this and may not continue for long. It all depends upon how entertaining or even enlightening it is to watch it all unfold. I feel pretty distant/removed from the daily life unfolding south of my border but I should see if I am still a validly registered voter in the state of California. I would like to vote. But if I do I guess it means I better keep following the toing and froing of the political scene in the US. I think it's arrogant of people who have never held political office to think they can come from nowhere and do the job of president, which requires enormous political knowledge and skills that cannot be learned overnight. My bet is that as the months go by, Rubio and Bush will emerge as the leaders. Were I Hillary, I would be worried about Rubio, who is young and smart, and could make it a generational thing to undermine Hillary. Bush is nothing to get excited about but he has money and insider support, polls be damned. There is so much that can happen between now and November 8 2016. Hell, some of those candidates might be dead by then! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote : ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <noozguru@...> wrote : Fiorina is easy to beat. Just trot out some of the thousands who lost their jobs when she ran HP. She's going nowhere. She was given accolades by the reviewers of the debate, saying she was strong as was Rubio that night. I am not sure she is running for CEO of a company; Prez of the USA needs to be a lot more than that. Going over one's past accomplishments running a business is a relative waste of time and not completely relevant to the subject at hand. Watching Donald trumpet on about his purported business acumen was not only boorish but just more of his same old, same old braggadocious hot air.

If only it were that easy.<I listened to part of the *debate*. I thought it was kind of funny. *So and so said this about you. What are you going to say about them?*Kind of what I expected. It all kind of reminded me of Junior high school. However, I did like Carly Fiorina! I had heard very little about her prior but wanted to hear more. I liked her responses. I thought she was very sharp and together. And, she's from Austin! From: "awoelflebater@...
