Instead of everyone having to sit through almost 5 minutes of the video on the linked page .. I found the 'pertinent' (and shorter) part of the conversation on youtube to post.
Political parties, not voters, choose their presidential nominees, a Republican convention rules member told CNBC, a day after GOP front-runner Donald Trump rolled up more big primary victories.
"The media has created the perception that the voters choose the nomination. That's the conflict here," Curly Haugland, an unbound GOP delegate from North Dakota, told CNBC's "Squawk Box" on Wednesday. He even questioned why primaries and caucuses are held.

If neither Cruz nor Trump make the 1237 delegates needed, but both are close, and the GOP throws in a third candidate whether they had been in the race or not, I refuse to vote for them.
Either they pick one of the two top people's choice, or I go third party.

but the voters chose who they vote for on election day in November and if the GOP forces one of their own upon us, then they will surely lose countless voters for life.
