Why Not Me Emerges In Crowded GOP 2016 Race

The piece notes Kasich’s Ohio governorship, Rubio and Paul as rivals, Christie as possible mainstream challenger, and the royalist pattern in past GOP nominees. It also cites how social media and wealthy donors alter campaigning, and mentions Clinton’s slipping image as a factor.
