CANDIDATES AND SOME FINDS

Since I wrote the previous Blogs about the election, I’ve learned a few more facts expressed by candidates directly or indirectly. Hillary has stated she wants 135 billion dollars for education. Jeb is still moving his head too often. (Isn’t anyone going to tell him?) One poll showed Ted Cruz is second place, but another one this morning says Jeb is. Both are far behind Trump, of course.

One commentator said on Sunday that Trump is a phenomenon, but it remains to be seen if he is a short-term phenomenon or a long-term one. But Rand Paul explained Trump pretty well in a news shot yesterday. The newsman called it an attack on Trump, but it was not on the same planet as Trump’s attack on anyone. Paul was exceedingly proper. He did not over emote and I agreed with everything he said. (That makes him correct, right?) I wonder what sort of upbringing those two lads had, Trump and Paul. It might be helpful if we could see something of their private lives now, not just afterwards see such of the one who wins.

For example, how many times has Trump been married? How many times for Fiorina? Anyone else? So far as I know, Reagan is the only president we have had who was legally divorced. It sort of seemed the nation made an exception for him, because he was so loved by the people.

JFK’s first marriage is still mainly a secret. Money talks, I suppose. But there are books you can read that tell about his early marriage to someone other than Jackie. So, what is happening now; are we going Hollywood? God forbid!
