Today is do or die day for Marco Rubio, John Kasich and Bernie Sanders, who are fighting to keep their White House hopes alive.
Many are voting strategically this time in hopes of altering the outcome of the presidential race by voting for someone other than their favorite candidate in the primaries. Does this sound confusing? Check back in a few hours and lets try this again.
Most states have awarded delegates on a proportional basis so far. But that changes in an effort to help a front-runner and hinder those falling behind.
The Second Amendment to the US Constitution concerns the right to bear arms, and has always been a hot-button issue, especially during election season.

As my friend and neighbor likes to say, we'll get plenty of sleep when we die. So if you do not get enough sleep, get ready to lose an hour early Sunday when daylight-saving time arrives. At 2 AM (except in parts of Arizona)

In NYC, a combination of the mild winter weather, along with an early March warm-up has resulted in an early-starting season for sufferers like myself and my wife. These conditions allows trees to pollinate earlier than usual.
The GOP candidates went all out to appear presidential in their 12th GOP debate speaking in firm but level tones.
The debate once again lacked specifics from all the candidates. This contest before Tuesday's polling at least did not degenerate into the mudslinging of past debates, when the candidates insulted and talked over one another.
Meanwhile, another former foe of The Donald, retired surgeon Ben Carson is endorsing Trump for president. This development may strengthen the front-runner’s support among blacks, conservatives and evangelicals.
