Who would you vote for, if you had to choose?
 
Hilary.. not that it is a good choice. It is the best choice of 3 bad candidates.

Carson is a lying piece of crap. His views belong in the 1500s, not the 21st Century.

Trump is a charlatan.. con man. 4 bankruptcies and he is still rich.. he is a leech.
 
Hillary, cause another 8 years of glory await the USA with her being POTUS.
 
I'd rather hammer my foot flat than vote for anyone on that list.
 
Just maybe...Trump. I kinda hate to even speculate like that, and I'm not sure I could actually bring myself to push the button when the time came.

I was Hillary supporter in 08. Since then though, I've developed a bad attitude towards her.

It would be so absurd if Trump was our Pres that I might just do it to see what happens. I don't think he's an actual "Republican" by today's definitions, so he doesn't seem likely to push for wacky social reform like personhood or marriage amendments. But, he might just have the business sense to get us back to financial solvency.

Certainly wouldn't consider Carson, or any of the others.
 
My vote would actually go to Cruz but, since these were the only choices........
 
I'd actually like the opportunity to vote for a [mentally stable] woman. But I can't vote for Hillary.
 
What an awful question. How cruel of you. Where is the forum monitor?

Hard argue that we are not a nation in decline when those are our choices for leadership. Both parties should be embarrassed that these people represent the best they have got.

Now, who would I vote for? Hmm this is like some bogus F, marry, kill scenario from the Howard Stern Show. You would have to kill Carson, F Trump and marry Hillary. Four years of Hillary would just be a continuation of what we now have--divisive, corrupt, partisan bickering and gridlock. Trump would be entertaining as hell but a disaster on virtually every front. Hillary would be status quo but you would have to turn down the volume every time she speaks. Maybe I just wont vote, then bitch about whoever gets in.

There is a pretty good answer buried in this cynicism. Kudos.

I have voted in every Presidential election for which I was eligible. If Lucifer were running against Hillary Clinton, I'd at least give him a look-see. I detest Clinton that greatly. It's not because she's a Democrat; it's because she lacks character. She's despicable and no role model for women.

But I would never cast a vote for Donald Trump. Are you kidding? I don't think I'll be sitting out the upcoming election and am waiting for attention paid to him to wane. I still want to hear what Kasich and Rubio have to say. Fiorina and Cruz too.

I dislike Hillary, but I just don't get this level of venom towards her.
 
This is not my question to answer, so I didn't. But I would say that if those are the choices, I'd predict that the 2016 Presidential election would see the lowest turn out in modern times. Of course, I'm also still predicting that Jeb Bush will be the Republican nominee and the next US President, so you can take my comments any way you choose.

I don't see how Bush gets there. The whole reason why people like Trump and Carson exist is because no one wants to be spoon fed another helping of Bush. Hes not popular and hes not a good debater and hes not a good campaigner. Im surprised he even gets to 5% in the polls.

If I were Bush, I wouldn't brag that he's beating every other candidate in money and organization, while simultaneously sucking the bottom of the barrel in polls. That's like an 8 foot basketball player who can't dunk.

I'd simply say you're being played by the media who want the least capable candidate on the Republican side to go up against Hillary Clinton, their candidate. It's why they're constantly pumping Trump who hasn't a chance against Clinton in the general election and why they are trying to take down Carson now, although he's doing a pretty good job of taking himself down, and why they are pushing the "Bush is dead" mantra in the hope that they can make that happen.

Bush is the only candidate on the Republican side who has consistently, from the beginning, polled ahead of Clinton in head to head races, regardless of where his poll numbers are in the primaries. Trump has pretty much never polled ahead of Clinton. Carson lately, and Rubio more recently, have started to poll well against Clinton, which is why the media have gone after them with personal attacks while never attacking Trump.

People who vote in the primaries and in elections and serious Republicans will come to their senses before it's all done.

I wish she would just go away so we can possibly get some decent democrat candidates to chose from. I have not found a republican candidate I can get behind yet. I chose Trump only because I think he might be able to put together the people to financially put this country solidly back on its feet. That is his specialty. Making the tough decisions to make business financially sound again. As far as bankruptcy goes this country is already at the door. Once the interest on your debt is one of your largest bills the gig is up. Too be honest if it came down to these three I probably wouldn't waste my time voting. It is like choosing between Hitler and Stalin why bother.
 
Hillary.
She is the closest to my views.

However, I do believe that Trump only switched to Republican due to a black man being in office and that he would gradually swing Left and be less scary if he were elected.
Trump is a crap person but would be the best choice of the Republicans as President.

Carson is a complete joke and a closet lunatic.
 
I dislike all 3, but Hillary is the worst. Given the choices I'd have to go with Carson.
