if a candidate wants to set policy and decide national security for all, we need to know how they can be compromised--all of them. Transparency is essential.

... nor can I trust ANY candidate who insults my intelligence by "releasing" a mere "summary". I cannot trust ANY candidate who comes up with excuses or blames it on his/her accountant, or that they're "lost" or some other pseudo-technicality.

When a candidate refuses to do such a simple thing, I don't wonder if they are hiding something... I KNOW FOR A FACT that they are trying to hide something. And when ANY candidate (from ANY PARTY) refuses, or delays, or makes excuses... it tells me that he/she is NOT the person he/she is presenting him/herself as.

And that's all I have to say about that.... for now.

New Jersey and Mass. will be adopting ballot access laws. These laws will be challenged by trump in court and I would really hate to see any Democrat join trump in attacking these laws.

I look forward to New Jersey adopting one of these laws Chris Christie vetoed a prior law. Mass may have a ballot access law on the ballot for 2018 that will be fun to watch
