  1. "I don't care what his actual positions are. I don't care if he says the wrong thing. He says what's on his mind. He gives honest answers rather than prepared answers. This is more important than anything any candidate has done in years," Cuban wrote.

    You'd be surprised how much people want a genuine person and not a liar focused on sound bytes.

    I won't vote for Trump, but I certainly admire his candor. It's refreshing.

    Other people besides Putin and Mason have candor. And it's not a bad thing in all cases, your sarcasm notwithstanding.

  4. Candor can be a good thing, but it has to go hand in hand with content. Trump is content-free. And he's a birther. And Cuban admires him...wtf.

  5. Candor is not always greatest attribute in interpersonal relations, or international.

    You don't always have to speak every thought that comes to mind. unless of course your an egomaniac that doesn't care:confused::D

    Trump would be a disaster. Look how he must reply in kind to any semblance of criticism, real or perceived:eek:

    I could read this and actually think you might be talking about CIC. Of course, he lets his agencies and hacks deal with the criticism.

    Unchecked candor can be disastrous. But candor - properly used - is appreciated by the masses. It's not an all or nothing.

    I'm glad Trump is taking these people on.

    Yeb Bush sure as heck won't do it.

    Actually, it's quite the opposite. Candor is honesty and frankness - even when the message delivered is not what you want to hear (it often isn't).

    That's why people who speak candidly usually attract such rancor.
