Trump Widens Lead In Poll To 32%www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/08/22/reuters-trump-widens-lead-in-poll-to-32-after-hard-line-immigration-stance/Donald Trump: Simply Unstoppable. Exclusive: Barry Farber Declares, "He may carry all 50 states"right180.com/?p=7703
Admit it. Donald Trump is a volcano in a forest of Ronson lighters.
You’re not going to stop him. He may carry all 50 states.
The awareness of Trump’s invincibility is dawning slowly for several reasons. Nobody wants to be revealed as a fool if Trump flames out. Also, such a breathtaking prediction hates to be borne all alone. “Out on a limb” is a lonely place for a pundit to be. Then, too, a lot of heretofore wise observers are obeying the instinct to adopt a “business as usual” stance. We put subconscious pressure on ourselves so that yesterday’s “clown-by-consensus” isn’t too abruptly hailed as the winner this absurdly long before the first vote is cast. The dreamers in the GOP are still reassuring one another that Trump’s domination is a “summertime thing,” and that come fall the public anger will be gone and the people will ask themselves, “Is this the kind of person we want in the Oval Office?” Dream on, Dear Establishment. People are already asking that question, and the answer is not just “Yes”; it’s “Hell, Yes!”
Eight years ago Americans decided to take a chance on a “community organizer” without one single discernable accomplishment, not even authorship of his own book! (Thank you, Jack Cashill!) Obama was president of the Harvard Law Review – and never wrote a single editorial. And we elected and re-elected him.

You are of course aware of the number of times these people in the crowd have been revealed to be liberal plants, right? I was there. I didn't hear anything of the sort. In all likelihood, had anyone heard such a thing, they would not have responded well to it. It was a good, low-key, well-mannered crowd.

Nearly 32 percent of Republicans surveyed online said they backed Trump, up from 24 percent a week earlier, the opinion poll found.i have never seen an online poll that was statistically solid. i will wait to see something more professional before i comment.

I just heard on the news that some were shouting out "White Power!" at the rally. Well, isn't that special? It never happened. If you can't support this claim with a link, I suggest you delete it. The same could be said for your claim you were at the rally in Mobile Alabama and that the stadium was full. Yet we have pictures that show it was not. NEXT!

And here I thought Obama was a US Senator after being a state senator in Illinois. Paul is so educational.

It's not that Trump is my pick, but I have to say I certainly do like watching the way he irritates all the right people. I can say this- I'll never vote for Jeb, or Huckabee, or Santorum, or Kasich, or Christie- but if Trump gets the nomination, I will vote for him in the general election without a second thought.

I'd vote for Trump...
In a poll for worst comb-over or worst "reality show" host.
But for President? Nope. Me voting for Trump for president is about as likely as me having a threesome with Gisele Bundchen and Candice Swanepoel... WITH The Wife's blessing... and all the feminists on the various boards I'm on CONGRATULATING me for my "conquest"!
(for the record, the odds of that happening are so close to ZERO they may as well BE ZERO)

Please provide a link to all the riots Obama incited and streets he agitated. Based on your definition there has to be some.

Community organizer Two years after graduating, Obama was hired in Chicago as director of the Developing Communities Project, a church-based community organization originally comprising eight Catholic parishes in Roseland, West Pullman, and Riverdale on Chicago's South Side. He worked there as a community organizer from June 1985 to May 1988.[32][34] He helped set up a job training program, a college preparatory tutoring program, and a tenants' rights organization in Altgeld Gardens.[35] Obama also worked as a consultant and instructor for the Gamaliel Foundation, a community organizing institute. Wikipedia.org/Obama Obviously Obama was a commie agitator working with Catholic churches to incite riots. www.commieblaster.com/

I agree with this.
Of course. Slavery was only about 1/50th of the reasons for the civil War and displaying the Confederate flag now is only about southern pride. Any racial connotations implied is just the misguided thought processes of damn Yankees.

Any racial connotations implied is just the misguided thought processes of damn Yankees. The intelligent people know it's not "1/50th" (that's just your flawed {likely intentional} misunderstanding of a simple and elegant analogy). The intelligent people also know the "racial connotations" have nothing to do with "thought processes of damn Yankees" as well (revisionists aren't limited to people from the North).

Why are we talking about the confederate flag? Oh, right- because if we didn't, we'd have to talk about the issue at hand. Look, the reality is- love him, or hate him- Trump is the GOP nominee right now. I think it bodes very well for him in the general election that many Democrats are spewing the old "this is good news for Democrats" because you know everyone hates Donald Trump, and immigrants hate him, and black people hate him, and he'll never get the women vote, yada. yada. yada. It may be conventional wisdom, but every last one of the "electable" candidates have lost with the exception of Bush who won in two squeakers. The last "unelectable" candidate was Reagan, and he was re-elected in a 49 state landslide. We'll see what happens, but right now this is Trump's primary to lose-- we'll cross the general election bridge when we get to it.
