18. I would not be surprised about a good plan
Mon Apr 20, 2015, 02:13 AM
Apr 2015

from their side:
1) Make sure there is more than enough money
to discourage anyone else to run

2) Make sure that a "necessary" primary will only
encourage people, who are aiming at the 2nd spot

3)Make certain that even a lunch meal and everything
else is covered by the MSM

4) Preempt any popular other person by claiming
their support and using their issues.

I am sure there is more, but is that not a great start?
