What's wrong with qualifying a statement? It often has to be done to help those out who aren't that quick on the uptake. Was Trump offered an inducement to run or did he decide that on his own? I don't envy your predicament. You have to prove that no candidate entered the race of his/her own volition. Do you really think the Republican Party thought it was a good idea to have that many candidates? Also, considering the number, one woman and one black is under-representation. Given that there are only three declared Democratic candidates, one women and no blacks is hardly out of whack with statistical probability. Since we've had a black Democratic president for the last eight years, it's stretching credulity to suggest that the lack of a black candidate now is a sign of racism.Now you're qualifying your statement. A sure sign you lost the argument. In truth parties recruit candidates and different factions offer inducements, sometimes to declare and sometimes to stay out.
