One other big issue here, we have a lot of young people who sit on the fence on a issue like this and they think about their belief in God.

Excuse me, John. I just hate to point this out but Kim Davis is a Democrat.

If Kasich is the main establishment competition...Trump has little to be concerned about from that quarter.
