19. All three are dyslexic (Bush, Palin, Trump). Dyslexics are visual

and can paint a picture, read a crowd, don't get bored repeating the same message over and over, are good in dynamic situations like campaigns and counterpunch using visuals like in a real fight rather than prepared language (Jeb was thought to be a threat but was not nearly as good as GWB counterpunching, no surprise Jeb is not a dyslexic and was a disappointment). We are big picture people. GOP has been farming dyslexics because they appeal well like Rubio. But the dumb ones have been winning. Smart dyslexics like Ronald Reagan (communication), JFK, Churchill, Eleanor Roosevelt (FR'S eyes and ears who traveled the country), Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, George Washington and Napoleon seem to be hard to find these days. Yet they are keeping Rubio from voting often so he could run as a centrist Presidential candidate some day. Maybe, maybe, after Trump and the chasm between who the rabid right wing base thinks is a good candidate and what the moderate Republicans, traditionals and Independents thinks is a good Republican candidate, maybe they will get over trying to find a dyslexic above all else.Because like any other group of people some are smarter than others and because they keep narratives separate the evil noise machine can get not so smart dyslexics to believe almost anything.
