tomorrow, the preshow before the arizona and utah votes roll in. i'm bill o'reilly. please always remember the spin stops right here. definitely looking out for you. breaking tonight, we're exactly 12 hours away from the next polls opening in campaign 2016 as the candidates fight it out for their share of nearly 100 delegates. welcome to "the kelly file" virn everyone, aisle megyn kelly. remaining republican candidates have a hectic day tomorrow, today they were busy courting the same voters in the same place. the aipac conference. the preeminent annual gathering for supporters of israel. we'll have more in a moment including an interview with texas senator ted cruz a little later in the hour. but first, to two big contests about to begin. the largest prize, the winner take all state of arizona. 58 delegates at stake there. the latest polling shows it's

donald trump's race to lose. he has received the backing of several prominent state leaders, like sheriff joe arpaio and former arizona governor jan brewer. then there's utah. the math will be a little l more complicated there. 40 delegates are at play and if one candidate wins the caucuses by more than 50%, then utah is winner take all. if not, the delegates will be awarded on a proportional basis. right now, the latest poll shows senator ted cruz in the lead there, he's won support in utah from 2012 republican presidential nominee mitt romney. chris stirewalt is our fox news digital politics editor. he's here to tell us what to expect. >> good to see you. >> the conventional wisdom is arizona is going to go to trump, utah will go to ted cruz. what's your thinking on it? >> conventional wisdom ought to be very right. there are hardly two states that should stack up better for these two candidates as we head into the homestretch, by the way, who would have thought that we would get to continue to cover elections at this point in march

in 2016? >> you know what, i'll tell withdrew what, you raise a good point because i scheduled a vacation with my little ones in florida for spring break. i found out we have election coverage. i'm not going. so bret is going to have to do it by himself. >> i'll be there with him and the viewers will not be as happy that i will be there, but we're going to do the best we can. >> i got to go to disney, stirewalt. >> better you than me. i would cover 50 elections before i would do that. then we are cool. >> we digress. >> quite. the answer is this, if you look for a state that matches donald trump's voter profile, the demographic profile for donald trump, arizona is the one. obviously the big issue in arizona has been immigration. you have a state that has been rocked, roiled and hurt by illegal immigration and has shown there is a federal and state level incapacity for dealing even with legal immigration, on top of that you have a state that is not the top when it comes to education, not the top when it comes to

workforce, not the top in a lot of ways. it has economic fally struggled and struggled with immigration. this is trump country. flip over to utah, this is state that's doing really well. the youngest state demographically speaking. a state with low unemployment. this is a state that is economically sack siucceedsucce very well. a kind of state where donald trump doesn't do very well. you don't have the same overlay. the two states are next to each other. utah is also, by the way, the most churchgoing state in the union. it is the most conservative state in the union. that should be very good for ted cruz. >> let's say they split the results as expected tomorrow. where are we in the race? what does that change? >> well, we have to put one caveat on. if john kasich denies ted cruz an outright full majority win in utah, he can expect to have a lot of raspberries blown in his direction by the republican party because if the function of john kasich being in this race is to deny ted cruz the

opportunity to fight donald trump to the end, there will be very little patience and the patience for kasich is getting smaller and smaller and smaller but if kasich denies -- if he is in there for 5%, 6 % in utah and denies cruz the chance to defeat trump outright and win all those delegates and keep this rolling on, if that's john kasich's role in the race he'll be dr. stinkburger in the minds of many republicans. >> not the trump supporters. >> of course, for trump supporters they want kasich to divide that vote, have that result in utah be split so it's not a split decision tomorrow but instead that trump gets closer and closer to the -- one thing i will say, this is important to point out, when we look at the polling in utah and this includes the latest one that we saw out today, yes, ted cruz is ahead but you know what else the poll showed, that the state becomes a swing state in the general election because donald trump is that unpopular in utah. so the map is being redrawn. >> i'm just kind of stuck on you saying that they're going to blowspberries at

john kasich. isn't the raspberry, you kiss your baby's belly and make that sound? >> everybody knows that's -- >> i couldn't get past it. i don't want to see that. my eyes. >> a raspberry is something different. bye, chris. >> bye. >> i don't want to be thinking about john kasich while i'm doing that to my baby. also today, in the shadow of capitol hill, a number of current and former republican lawmakers met with gop front-runner donald trump to discuss policy and political strategy. my next guest was there. california congressman duncan hunter is a trump supporter and member of the house armed services committee. congressman, good to see you. what was the purpose of this meeting? >> hey, megyn, number one, he says hi and sends his best wishes. he wanted to make sure i passed that on. >> it's not true. >> it's not true. i'm just joking. here's what it was. he was in town for the first time meeting with people that supported him and never met him so that's kind of what this was. he didn't, you know, delve into

any deep policy matters. it was substantive but it wasn't crazy substantive. and we just talked. we heard from him. he talked politics. a few of us talke policy. and that was it. >> did he listen? because some of the critiques on trump from even some of his top supporters is he needs to study. you know, if he would read policy papers and so on, when he goes out there at these debates or general election debate if he gets that far and so on, he could impress on substance and not just style. >> he has time for that, and, you know, there was policy stuff and he did listen because trump is not a dumb guy. he would not be where he is if he was dumb, so he is smart and he knows what he does not know and knows that some people have the answers to that. there's guys like me that have -- i did three tours. i've been doing foreign policy stuff and military stuff for seven years in congress. i have advice for him. so he understands it. he didn't do tours overseas,

right? he's not going to act like he has. but he'll still take that and kind of put that into his own show. meaning he's going to internalize what we tell him and take that on the road. if you listen to his aipac speech, it was like listening to mitt romney. i mean, i was listening to it on the radio and it sounded like it was not the mr. trump from the last six months, it was a new mr. trump giving a great speech -- >> wasn't he using a teleprompter on that? >> i don't know but he did very well. >> i'm just saying, this is what a lot of his supporters have been saying for months if he could be more disciplined the teleprompter can help you out, organize your thoughts. i use it all the time. not during interviews but scripts that get us from interview to interview. if can sort of help you stay disciplined and on message. >> right. we could all learn more about everything, frankly. i don't think he has had -- i don't think he has had to at this point. and i think he's very focused on simply winning.

and i think, once you win or at least get much closer than we are now, like you guys just talked about, you're still covering the election politics now. so, you know, he has time for this. he's a very smart guy. he will pick it up very quickly. and he has surrounded himself with smart people. >> great to see you, sir. >> thank you. joining me with his stake, stewart stevens, former mitt romney campaign strategist and founding partner at strategic partners and media. thank you for being here. so what do you make, are we now seeing, you know, a more disciplined, on message donald trump as of today? >> well, listen, i think those of us that have been critical of donald trump for not listening and not surrounding himself with people who know more than him have to say it's a good thing when he does, so if he's with smart people like the congressman acongress m congressman and others and listening, that's a good thing and should be con garage lated for it. you know, this -- what's amazing is that we are making a thing about a presidential candidate

meeting with people who know policy. and he's a front-runner and, you know, it's sort of late in the race for this to be happening. you know, two other things happened today. one of sort of tactics and one of substance. he said today that the united states should really probably get out of nato. really sort of an extraordinary thing for any presidential candidate to say, it just sort of announce it without any sort of rollout or any sort of building a case for it. but at this time when you have a ground war in europe, when you have countries like sweden is rearming, when you have this resurgent russia, i mean, republicans have a chance to really have a competitive advantage pointing out the problems with hillary clinton's world view. this is a person that famously wanted to reset relations with

russia. and yet if we have a candidate who's out there saying, just sort of in an off-hand way, you know, probably this nato thing we should maybe get out of nato. it's just not the way to convince people that you're serious about leading not only the country but the world. >> what's the second thing? >> second thing is when elizabeth warren went out and banged up trump and he came back and called her an indian. >> she came out with a tweet storm against him calling him a loser. >> i would bet -- right. i would bet inside elizabeth warren's office they had some office pool that he'd to that. you can't just be baited like that that easily when you're a presidential candidate, it just takes you off message. and, i mean, he's calling her american indian as if there's something wrong with being an american indian and goes to this history of whether or not she claimed ethnicity to get into harvard. but it's just this sort of, you know, kind of frat boy taunt which is fine if you're all this sort of -- you know, inner guys sort of loved it and thought it

was great, hey, you know, mr. trump, that's terrific. it's not just the way you broaden a base. and what's interesting is, you know, tonight we're talking about two states, arizona and utah, and the primary, moitt romney, he didn't have trouble carrying both of these states. they are very digfferent. he carried both with big majorities in the primary. >> wasn't he the only one effectively in the race by that point? >> no, no. the last presidential debate was in arizona, and there were four, five candidates still in that race, including speaker gingrich. it was very much still a race then. but look, ultimately, you know, politics is about addition, not subtraction. it's something, when i came up with haley barbour, it's something he used to say, it's about adding more people, not taking away people. and for republicans to have any chance at all here, we have to take what mitt romney got and we

have to add to that and there's different ways to do that, but basically we can't lose any of the voters that we have and have any sort of fighting chance at all. that's the business that the nominee needs to get about. >> stuart, great to see you. >> good to see you. in moments, senator ted cruz will join "the kelly file" to talk tomorrow's primary, his speech tonight on israel and new reports on a v.p. pick. plus, between crazy delegate math and tough contests ahead, it looks increasingly like anything could happen at the republican convention. rnc chairman reince priebus is here to break down what he expects on the road ahead. >> nobody is going to have enough delegates. we are going to go to a convention. it's going to be open. i'm very comfortable with heading to that convention with momentum and more delegates and we'll let the people there make a choice.

my leading republican opponent has promised that he as president would be neutral between israel and the palestinians. well let me be very, very clear. as president, i will not be neutral. [ applause ] both hillary clinton and donald trump have said they would maintain this iranian deal. my view is very different. on the first day in office, i

will rip this catastrophic iranian nuclear deal to shreds. [ applause ] >> that was senator ted cruz less than two hours ago giving an impassioned speech at the american israeli public affairs committee conditions. the texas senator said last week he would use the speech to america's largest pro-israel organization to draw distinctions between himself and gop front-runner donald trump. joining me now, ted cruz. >> good to be with you, megyn. >> donald trump said he'd be neutral in trying to negotiate a deal between the israelis and palestinians and you don't believe neutrality is appropriate. >> i think it's more than not being appropriate. anyone that can tell the difference between our friends and allies, anyone that cannot distinguish between the state of israel which is fighting to defend itself citizens from

terrorism and islamic terrorists who are murdering women and children who are murdering israelis and murdering americans, if you can't tell the difference between those, that raises real questions about your fitness ain judgment to be commander in chief. >> he's talking about a peace deal between israel and the palestini palestinians, not necessarily ham hamas. if we really want to achieve peace, how can you do it, this is what his defenders would say, how can you do it going in there already having chosen a side? >> for one thing, the palestinian authority is in what they call a unity government with hamas. hamas is part of the palestinian authority and hamas is a terrorist organization that celebrates the murder of innocent civilians. you know, just a few days ago, taylor force, an american, a texas, an eagle scout, west point graduate, an army veteran, was murdered by a palestinian terrorist and the palestinian authority celebrated, cheered. they incite this violence and

pay compensation to the families of the terrorists who commit these crimes. and what donald's comments about neutrality reflect is he buys into the typical media narrative and the view of barack obama and hillary clinton that there is somehow a moral equivalency between israel and the terrorists. the barrier to peace is not israel. israel wants peace. the barrier to peace is the palestinian authority that refuses to acknowledge israel's right to exist as a jewish state and that continues to support terrorism, and if we're going to see peace, i would love to see peace in the middle east. the only way to do it is not with a president treating the terrorists as if they're standing on the same level as the idf forces fighting to keep people safe, but rather to have america stand unapologetically with israel and america can help broker a deal, but our allegiance between our allies and enemies should not be confused and donald trump has demonstrated no understanding of that. you know, i would note also, megyn, another major foreign policy area that donald's

knowledge is badly deficient is the iranian nuclear deal. both donald trump and hillary clinton have said they would maintain this nuclear deal. now donald has said he would renegotiate it. he would come in and negotiate a better deal. listen, anyone who says that doesn't understand the ayatollah khomeini who pledges death to america. there's not a better deal with khomeini, the only thing khomeini understands is strength instead of weakness and appeasement. and donald trump has not demonstrated that he understands -- >> okay. >> -- the nature of islamic terrorists. >> let me ask you a question about 2016 because a report broke today that you and your campaign were or are considering a unity ticket with marco rubio and actually did some polling on it, looked into it. that so far rubio hasn't been interested in that but that would definitely be news to a lot of republicans and would be good news to certainly rubio supporters. is it true? >> listen, i read that and kind of shook my head in wonderment.

it's amazing the things reporters will write. i have had not any conversations with marco about that. my team hasn't had any conversations with his team about that. i think the world of marco rubio. i think he's very, very talented. he's a wonderful communicator. he really can tell his story and weave the tapestry, tell the american dream. rubio supporters are coming to support our campaign. we enthese yastically welcome them and i would enthusiastically welcome marco's support. he'd add a great deal to our term and i hope he supports us. >> would you rule out the unity ticket in particular? >> i absolutely want his support. i want the support of john kasich. we are seeing -- >> you're dodging. you're dodging. come on. tell me the truth. what's the deal? would you consider a unity ticket? >> the truth is i've had no conversations with him about that. i think any republican would naturally have marco on their short list and you would look

seriously to him as a vice presidential choice. i vice president had that conversation with him but i would certainly welcome his support. >> got it. >> i think he would add an enormous amount to the team. >> need a quick prediction on what's going to happen tomorrow in utah and arizona before i let you go. >> you know, i think tomorrow is going to be a very, very good day. in utah i'm exceedingly optimistic. we have the support, mitt romney announced that he's going to be voting for me tomorrow in utah. he encouraged people in utah and across the country to vote for ted. he said ted is the only one who can beat donald trump. mitt went on to say a vote for john kasich is a vote for donald trump. it's just a spoiler vote. we also got the support of senator mike lee and also governor gary herbert, governor in utah. i think we're going to do very well in utah. arizona i'm encouraged, but arizona is very competitive. donald trump has a lead in the early vote, a pretty significant lead. we're surging and ahead on election day so what happens on arizona is going to come down to turnout. if there's a big, big turnout tomorrow then the election day

vote could overcome donald's lead in early vote but it really depends on conservatives coming together and, you know, we've got a lot of strong conservatives in arizona supporting us including congressman matt sam and trent franks. i'm very encouraged that the strong conservatives are unifying -- >> got it. >> -- and we're seeing the whole range of the republican party coming together behind our campaign because we're the only campaign that has beaten donald trump over and over and over again nine times and we're the only campaign that can and will beat donald and critically go on to beat hillary clinton and win the general election. >> senator ted cruz, always great speaking with you. thanks for being here. >> thank you, megyn. don't forget to come to tedcruz.org and support us. >> i know you don't mean me. >> no, no, i would love your support, megyn. if you maxed out -- >> i'm busy. >> -- we could make news. you're a big fancy tv person. you could afford to max out. >> never made a political donation in my life. not looking to start. great to see you, though. >> great to see you, megyn. when a frank luntz focus group was recently asked to

from the world headquarters of fox news, it's "the kelly file" with megyn kelly. >> welcome back to "the telly file." less than 12 hours until arizona and utah. today donald trump for the first time revealed his foreign policy team. mr. trump listing the names of five people who are counseling him. some of them may be known to you including a fox news midwe-east expert. joining me, stooeeven miller, senior adviser to the trump campaign. and fox news contributor and former speechwriter for president george w. bush. good to see you both. >> good so see you, megyn. >> your thoughts on what we heard from trump today at aipac and the foreign policy team he's

now announcing? >> we heard today the scripted donald trump and the unscripted donald trump. aipac, we heard the scripted donald trump. it was pretty good. the first time he's ever delivered a prepared speech and did a good job and hit all the grace notes though there were things in there that were surprising. said both he'd scrap the iran deal and enforce it which is incoherent. we heard the unscripted donald trump at the "washington post." >> he had a meeting with the editorial board. it was stream of consciousness donald trump in the open meeting and it was a debacle. he said our military bases in asia, they don't serve any purpose for us whatsoever. he said that nato was in alliance for an earlier time and we spent hundreds of billions of dollars on nato which is fact l factually incorrect. and that we can't afford it anymore. he basically said we can't afford to lead the world anymore. at aipac he says we're going to lead a global coalition to dismantle iran's terror network, but at lts "washington post" he

say s we can't afford to lead anymore. those are incompatible things. donald trump unscripted is ve different and much different than donald trump reading a speech. >> what about what he said in terms of nato is. >> great to be here tonight. mark, i hope you feel better thousanow that you've gotten all that off your chest. it's funny, mark is complaining, or talks about the scripted remarks tonight. i heard mark practicing his speech in the greenroom and it's identical to what he said to you. i guess mark likes -- >> let's keep it higher brow than that, stephven. >> that's the best you can do, steven? >> i can do better. here's one for you. you're talking about nato. i have a question for you, mark. there's a guarantee in nato, if russia incurs on ukraine's borders, would you send american troops to fight and die in

ukrai ukraine? i suspect the answer to that is no. >> before we let mark -- he's not yet running for president. maybe someday. can you just respond to mark's claims about what trump said on nato and he says he's factually inaccurate in his claims about what we spend. >> i was getting through that. the reality is nato is an organization made many decades ago that is incongruent with our current foreign policy challenges with respect to iran and dismantling iran's terror networks, not with costly nation building mark has supported throughout his career that has drained our blood and treasure and made us less safe. so this is a major choice in this election so what i'm saying tonight to voters as a representative of the trump campaign is, if you want more foreign wars, if you want to lose your soldiersblood, and more treasure fighting and dying overseas in one country after another country after another country, then you can

follow the path that other candidates have laid out and that mark supports. but we're talking about defending -- >> i got it. >> -- the core interest of the united states. >> let him respond. it sounds like, you know, sounds a lot like rand paul. we've heard this same sort of line which was very popular with some voters, mark. >> yeah. i think that's unfair, megyn, because actually donald trump makes rand paul look like a neocon. we just saw in steven's answer to you the incompetence when it comes to foreign policy of the trump operation because ukraine is not a member of nato is there is no article 5 -- >> i was -- >> apparently -- >> i know that. i was asking you -- i was asking you -- >> hold on. >> -- about the effort. i was asking you about the longstanding effort to get ukraine, to get georgia, to get other eastern -- >> steven, stand down. >> there is an effort to expand -- >> steven, i'm going to have to get rid of you if you don't stop talking. okay. thank you. my job is to maintain order. that's it. okay. i'm going to let mark speak then let you speak again, steven.

let him speak uninterrupted, please. go ahead, mark. >> what donald trump laid out today in the "washington post" interview was a foreign policy that basically comes to this. withdrawal from the world so we can focus on nation building here at home, pull back from allies in europe and asia and embrace people like vladimir putin and we basically let europe lead and we lead from behind. that is the obama foreign policy. steven, here's a question for you. let's play a little game called who said it, donald trump or barack obama. here's a quote. "over the last decade we've spent a trillion dollars in war at a time of rising debt and hard economic times. it's time to fix on nation building here at home." >> well, we all know president obama's talked about nation building here at home. the problem is he hasn't done that because he's left our border wide open. he sent all of our manufacturing jobs overseas and he's hollowed out the middle class. an agenda you support also, mark. the point i was making with nato is there's an effort to get eastern bloc countries to join nato as part of the effort to try to push back putin that

would put the united states in a position to offer war guarantees to countries we're not going to fight and die for. this has been a major debate and you know that. >> okay. >> with respect to his speech today at apec -- >> we got to go. >> this is important. he laid out a plan to sanction iran, dismantle their terror networks, protect our vital economic interests and that combined with bringing back our manufacturing jobs, protecting our border, and protecting american workers will revitalize our middle class and a stark contrast to the globalism of mark and his donors. >> no more. i don't know how this got so mean. >> donor friends. >> we don't like mean on "the kelly file." be friendly. >> i thought it was fun and great. i enjoyed it a lot. >> i don't think you guys like each other. great to see you up nonetheless one of the big stories this weekend was the latest outburst of violence at a trump rally. again a trump supporter caught on camera attacking a protester. watch this.

[ yelling ] >> trace gallagher live in our west coast newsroom with more on this. trace? >> megyn, the first seven minutes of the trump rally in tucson, three different sets of protesters were ejected. at first trump made light of it saying we love our protesters. when security kicked out the second group, trump ignored it. then came a third set, a woman wearing a ku klux klan hood and a man carrying a picture of tru trump's face covered by a confederate flag. trump said they were disgusting and told security to get them out. that's when air force staff sergeant tony pettway attacked. watch again. [ yelling ] >> while the crowd chanted "usa" airman pettway was arrested, the man who got repeatedly punched and kicked was led outside and told a local tv station he attended the bernie sanders rally the night before and

nobody got punched. listen to him. >> you got an angry mob then you got what happened last night with bernie and that's democracy right there. >> but donald trump later indicated the protesters came looking for trouble. watch. >> he happened to be african-american. the person who was a supporter. and it was a shame what happened, but you know what, he saw a member of the ku klux klan and you people don't write that. >> and in fairness, there were agitators taunting trump supporters with foul language, shutting down a highway, causing a huge traffic jam forcing some trump supporters to walk for miles to actually get to the rally. megyn? >> trace, thank you. as trace mentioned we're hearing complaints that these protesters are going to the rallies looking to start trouble, so where do you draw the legal line here? judge andrew napolitano.

"new york times" bestselling author. trump is suggesting the guy punched the protester because he got upset because he saw somebody in the kkk. >> that's what donald trump suggested but the law is if you want to wear a kkk outfit at any rally to protest your view of the speaker, and that's all you're doing is wearing it, perhaps walking around with it, you're not shouting the speaker down, you're not throwing punches, you're not throwing chairs, you're not preventing the speaker from using the room from which he rented it, that, itself, is protected speech as much protected as the speech that the speaker's giving. >> the woman we see wearing the kkk hat, she's not the one getting beaten down but she's right behind him. she's got a kkk hat on. that -- >> that is protected speech. >> that is protected speech. >> as is the guy -- >> he's not beating the woman with the hat. >> he's beating a guy that wore

an american flag, a half bandanna, half shirt. for what reason he's beating that guy, who knows, but that is protected speech as well. in fact, the supreme court opinion right on point that any twisted, tormented version of the flag is protected speech. >> so that's the legality of the shirt and the hat and all that. people are trying to pin this on trump because he has used language that would -- i mean, he's directly said, you know, punch him in the face and i'll pay your legal fees. >> right. in the old days they'd carry them out on a stretcher. >> said he was considering paying the legal fees of the guy who punched the protester right in the face last week or two weeks ago. so to what extent can this be attributed to donald trump legally? >> very little, if at all. you may argue he's created an atmosphere and there's going to be a political reaction to that. that's a political argument. but legally, if he says there he is, get him, and the crowd descends immediately -- >> that's a different story. >> that's a different story.

but if he says there he is, get him, and an hour later or half an hour later, even five minutes later or at another rally they pounce on a similarly situated person, trump's speech is protected. >> that's not good enough. we're all responsible for our own conduct. with respect to the people doing the punching, and hello, stop doing that -- >> they are responsible. >> they're going down. >> let me tell you who else is responsible. the police. the police should not kick somebody out because donald trump or bernie sanders or hillary clinton or ted cruz says to kick them out because, again, unless they are materially interfering with the speech -- >> if they're disrupting, materially disrupting -- >> then they can be kicked out. if they are just displaying some emblem, something as hateful as the kkk, something as twisted as a torn up flag, something as direct as a t-shirt, that's protected speech and the police have to protect the right of the speaker to speak, the right of the listeners to hear and the right of the protesters to protest. they have to find that fine line

that protects all of them. >> uh-huh. that's the thing, the disruption has to be very big, in a school even, a school can't throw out a student unless it can be shown it's a significant disruption to the class. in a presidential rally, the standard would be even more forgiving of the protester. judge, great to see you as always. >> good to be here, megyn. enjoy your vacation. >> thank you. going to the happiest place on earth. >> your kids will love it. >> that's right here? that's terrible news. >> you didn't hear that from me. >> that is bad news. also tonight, between some crazy delegate math, and some tough contests ahead, it looks like anything could happen at the republican convention this summer. and the rnc chair is here next to tell us what he expects on the road ahead. are they going to change the rules? stay tuned. ♪ can't afford to let heartburn get in the way? try nexium 24hr, now the #1 selling brand for frequent heartburn. get complete protection with the new leader in frequent heartburn. that's nexium level protection.

expect? joining me now, chairman of the republican national committee, reince priebus. watch. the thing that seems to be concerning donald trump's fans, his voters and ted cruz's voters is the possibility of somebody who's not in this race right now swooping into the convention as underdog here to save the day and party leaders convincing delegates, forget ted cruz, forget donald trump, forget john kasich, vote for mitt romney, vote for paul ryan. is that a possibility? >> i would say this, as every kind of new element you insert into the hypothetical becomes more and more less likely. so, i mean, so whether we're going to have an open convention or not is sort where we're at. it's possible that ted cruz or donald trump can get to the majority of bound delegates before the convention, but now inserting all of these other wrinkles, each wrinkle comes with a lesser degree of certainty, so, you know, 100 years ago, 150 years ago, what

happened was people ran in individual states for delegate. they became the voting delegates at a convention. they came unbound. they voted for who they wanted to just like you would if you voted for the president of the club or nra, as long as you were a member and a voting member, you voted. well, somewhere along the line, people decided to why don't we expand the participation in this process and we'll have primaries and caucuses and conventions and those delegates now will come but we'll tie their hands on one vote and we'll say, on the first vote you have to follow what your state does, but then on the second and third vote thereafter, you can do what you want. that's really in a nutshell what we have at a convention. it's more complicated than that, but -- >> so the bottom line is if no candidate has 1,237 going into the convention and take a first vote and nobody's got the

majority, they go to the seco secosecond vote and it truly is a free for all at that point? technically another name could be submitted is. >> generally that's right, however, you have to consider that now these delegates that are going in bound to candidates, in many cases they're going to be forming relationships with those candidates and those candidates are going to be really smart and they're going to talk to those delegates and they're going to have information. not like suddenly on the second or third ballot everyone just suddenly kind of goes wild. i think over, if you get to a third, fourth, a fifth ballot, that's when things could get interesting. >> right. >> this is the way, actually if you go back in the history of our party, many, many conventions were open convention. abraham lincoln -- >> we've seen that. eight contested conventions and most of those the party who emerged as the nominee was not the party who went in with the most delegates, so that's why question to you.

i know the party, and you said, we will support the nominee, whoever that nominee is. let's take a step before that, let me ask you whether you believe the person who has the most delegates going into the convention, even if it's not a majority, must wind up the nominee? >> i would never say must but certainly i'd probably state the obvious that the closer you get to 1,237, i would think on the second or third ballot, if you're really, really close, it's obviously more likely. one thing i've said many times, i'm not going to help anyone get to 1,237. even if they're -- it doesn't matter. i'm not going to help you get delegates. i'm not going to hurt you and prevent you from getting delegates nor am i going to ascribe to the theory that the minority of delegates actually chooses the nominee for the majority. you have to have a majority of delegates. that's, you know, not that it's that comparable, but i won the chairmanship, megyn, on the seventh ballot.

>> wow. >> wasn't quite a -- >> hurt your feelings. >> but i never -- but i was never behind but no one came to me and said, well, third ballot, you got it, you're ahead. no, you have to hit the majority. the majority -- you know, democracy is a pretty special thing and we're going to follow it and it's going to be incumbent upon me to be overly transparent in everything that we do. >> i got to go. quick last question and answer. do you think we're going to be headed for a contested convention or do you think it will be resolved before we get to july is. >> it's possible. i know it's not a great answer for you but i'm not going to say absolutely. i can't obviously say no way. i think it's possible. it's mathematically possible that we'll be in for an open convention. >> you're going to have a lot on your hands, mr. chairman, if that happens and we'll all be there to cover it. thank you for giving us the time tonight. >> all right. when a frank luntz focus
