Bleed the system first. Take the radiator cap off. Start the car. Jack the front-end of the car up. Let it run for twenty minutes like that. Top off coolant/water as needed. Lower the car to ground level. Let it run for five minutes like that. Top off coolant/water as needed. Try that and post back

I have tried all the bleeding coolant trick and i have gotten nuthin. What is the thing w/ the ground wires about why would that make it over heat ?? do u guys think the rad is bad or something like that or could the radiator cap not be holding pressure b/c the Temp gauge says its fine when it runs its just bubblin inside the reserve bottle i just dont get it

Not a bleeding trick. That's the proper way to bleed a cooling system If the overflow is bubbling go ahead and replace the water pump

Take the radiator cap off(with the car cold of course) and start the car and see if coolant shoots out.Cross your fingers it isnt the hg.
