Brokered GOP Conventions Since its first convention in 1856, the Republican Party has had ten presidential elections in which no candidate coming into the convention had a majority of delegates. In 1860, Sen. William H. Seward entered the convention as the favorite, with 37%of the delegates. After three ballots, the convention settled on the 2nd place contender, who had only 22% of the delegates. That 2nd Place Contender...PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Lincoln wouldn't be eligible to participate in the brokered convention in 2016 unless he had over 50% of the delegates in 8 states(Ron Paul Rule).

Persons with this disorder may come across as conceited, boastful, or pretentious. They often monopolize conversations. They belittle or look down on people they perceive as inferior. They have trouble handling any comments perceived as criticism. They are thin-skinned due to secret feelings of insecurity, shame, vulnerability, and humiliation.

Sounds like the formula for most of the major party candidates for President. The difference is, except for Trump, they try to mask those traits as much as possible... and maybe that's the appeal of Trump to his supporters...that he doesn't try to put a filter on.

Yes... Nationalism:
Quoted Text
While self-determination is a nationalist principle, it also recognizes the basic equality of all nations, large or small, and therefore transcends a narrow nationalism that claims superiority for itself.
It was exactly this latter type of nationalism, however, that arose in Nazi Germany, preaching the superiority of the so-called Aryan race and the need for the extermination of the Jews and the enslavement of Slavic peoples in their "living space" (see National Socialism). Italian fascism was in a similar manner based on extreme nationalist sentiments.
