The candidate will not be picked until the Republican convention in July. The only way anyone can beat him to the nomination is to beat him in the primaries and beat him in the polls. I am sure many VP possibilities have been tossed around.
Generally the party has a lot to do with advising the candidate on whom to choose. McCain apparently didn't listen to advise and chose Sarah Palin anyway and this cost him a lot of votes. If Trumps gets the nomination there is little chance he will listen to advice either.
We might have an idea who he would like in the spring. It doesn't really matter. A Trump candidacy is scary on it's own.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
