The RNC is now asking presidential candidates to sign a loyalty pledge, which, according to GOP sources, reads, “I affirm that if I do not win the 2016 Republican nomination for president of the United States I will endorse the 2016 Republican presidential nominee regardless of who it is. I further pledge that I will not seek to run as an independent or write-in candidate nor will I seek or accept the nomination for president of any other party.”
The pledge is designed to force Trump to rule out a third-party run, but this is a pledge to support the nominee “regardless of who it is.”
Assuming Trump signs, the next question would be whether all 16 other GOP candidates will sign a document that commits them to supporting Trump if he wins the GOP nomination.
Jeb Bush would support Trump, the former Florida governor said on “Good Morning America” today.
But Rick Perry, for example, has called Trump a cancer on the conservative movement. So it remains to be seen whether he -- and the others -- will commit to supporting Trump.

It's not legally binding, of course. If he chooses to run 3rd party, however, it will make him look like he can't be trusted.
So I am totally hoping that's what happens

I hate this couple.
I hate that they are possibly endangering their child.
I hate that they think dolphins have some sort of heal conciseness, when in fact, dolphins are some of the most brutal animals on the face of the planet.
I hate they are the owners of a "healing center."
I hate them because they push absurd woo.
