I would LOVE it if Donald Trump ran for President as an Independent.
My teabagger neighbors think the Donald is the one! And yes, they would vote for him over a repug.
Think about that for a moment. The teabaggers vote for the Donald as an Independent. The more moderate Repugs vote for Pawlenty or whom ever else. Their vote is split and Obama wins easily.
I know 'some say' that Donald will not run, but wow - what a great scenario this would be.
ultimately i think it is very clear that Trump is simply doing as much as he can to raise his profile and have the opportunity to say 'my television show Apprentice' as many times as possible.
He is a walking, talking marketing gimmick. He has no sincere ambition to be president.
He won't have to run as an independent, he'll be the GOP nominee. Latest polls have him over 25% GOP support, with a solid lead over the next most supported candidate (Huckabee).
