    Polls only mean something when they give the results you want.

    The meaning of Ben Carson’s stunning rise

    It’s very meaningful that the surgeon Ben Carson appears to be taking the lead in the polling for the GOP nomination — but not in the ways you might expect.

    First, it means Donald Trump has stalled out. Given Trump’s standing atop the polls for four months now, if his candidacy had any momentum whatsoever he should have risen from the mid-20s to the mid-30s.

    The voters who should have started to break his way over the past two months seem instead to be moving to Carson. You can see this in the Real Clear Politics poll average. It shows Carson has risen to 24 percent from 10 percent on Aug. 30. Trump was at 23.5 percent and is now at 25.

    Though Trump bounced up a bit in September, the fact that he’s where he was two months ago indicates he has secured the support of the people he has and isn’t gaining any more.

    Powdered Wig Society Released just hours ago, the latest Reuters/Ipsos GOP presidential poll shows Donald Trump surging to 31%, Ben Carson second at 18% - Powdered Wig Society
    [​IMG]
    Donald Trump is the Republican candidate most trusted to manage the economy, deal with foreign leaders and serve as commander in chief, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll of Republicans conducted after the party’s third debate.

    And more Republicans would trust him with the nation’s nuclear weapons than most of the rest of their party’s presidential primary field.

    In terms of overall support, Trump was favored by 31 percent of Republicans polled by Reuters/Ipsos in an online survey conducted Oct. 28 to Nov. 2 that had a credibility interval of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson placed second with 18 percent. Senator Marco Rubio of Florida and former Governor Jeb Bush tied for third place with 10 percent each.

    For anyone still confused about why Trump is holding strong onto a double-digit lead in most presidential primary polls, look no farther than at how much Republican voters trust him. The growing trust shows Trump’s campaign message – that his experience in business means voters should pick him to negotiate trade deals or take on Russia’s Vladimir Putin – is resonating.

    On the question of whether voters trust the candidates to manage the economy, 59 percent said “yes” to Trump.

    None of the other Republican candidates came even close. Carson was second, with 36 percent saying they trust him to manage the economy. Rubio was third with 27 percent, followed by retired business executive Carly Fiorina at 25 percent.

    It’s not just on the economy where Trump shines. Asked whether they trusted the various Republican candidates to be commander in chief, Trump and Carson were tied, at 40 percent each.

    On the question of whom they trusted to deal with foreign leaders, Trump again took top marks, with 41 percent saying they would trust the New York real estate mogul. Carson was a close second at 39 percent. Rubio, who has made foreign policy a central part of his campaign and stressed his experience on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, was third at 31 percent.

    Asked about handling the nation’s nuclear weapons – another insight into voters’ views on foreign policy – 34 percent of Republicans said they would trust Trump. He trailed only Carson, with 39 percent saying they would trust Carson to have his finger on the proverbial button. Only 27 percent said they would trust Rubio.

    When it comes to the Oct. 28 debate, of those Republicans polled, a plurality, or 22 percent, thought Trump won.

    The poll appeared to show Trump and Carson garnering the most benefit from the debates.

    Of the Republicans polled, 31 percent said the debate changed their opinion about Carson and made it more positive. The same was said by 29 percent about Trump, but 22 percent said they had a more negative attitude of him afterward.

    The debate may have done the most damage to Bush. Twenty-nine percent said after the debate they had a more negative view of Bush.

    Not really.. I didn't say the poll was wrong. I said the poll is out dated, which it clearly is.

    I just posted one that was just released with Trump almost having a 20 point lead.

    Two Massive Florida Post-Debate Polls Show Trump Ahead, Rubio Held Back by Jeb
    Note: Despite the UK domain, I am happily ensconced in Cherry Hill, NJ]
    [Comments on this article welcome on Facebook here]

    Two Massive Florida Post-Debate Polls show Donald Trump ahead of all comers, Rubio Held Back by Jeb:
    • Florida Decides: Trump 37%, Carson 17%, Rubio 16%, Cruz 10%, Jeb 7%; the rest ≤3%.
    • Viewpoint Florida: Trump 27%, Rubio 16%, Carson 15%, with Cruz & Bush at 12%
    • The News is Really Bad in the Sunshine state as Jeb is holding back Marco, but the converse is not true.
    Florida Decides poll:
    Trump is dominating in the Florida Decides presidential poll sponsored by Bay News 9/News 13, both among his fellow Republican candidates and likely Democratic challengers in a head-to-head general election.

    Here are some of the main highlights of the poll, conducted via telephone from Wednesday, October 28 through Sunday, November 1:

    • Trump tops Ben Carson and Marco Rubio 2:1 in a GOP primary
    • Former Gov. Jeb Bush runs 5th among the top 8 GOP candidates
    • Hillary Clinton dispatches Bernie Sanders 3:1 in a Democratic primary
    • Florida would go red if Trump or Carson face Clinton in general election
    [​IMG]

    This is a massive poll, which includes head–to–head matchups for the general election: If the primary election were today, who would you vote for?
    1. Republican Primary
    2. Democratic Primary
    If the general election were today, who would you vote for?
    1. Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump
    2. Hillary Clinton vs. Ben Carson
    3. Hillary Clinton vs. Jeb Bush
    4. Hillary Clinton vs. Marco Rubio
    5. Hillary Clinton vs. Carly Fiorina
    6. Bernie Sanders vs. Donald Trump
    7. Bernie Sanders vs. Ben Carson
    8. Bernie Sanders vs. Jeb Bush
    9. Bernie Sanders vs. Marco Rubio
    10. Bernie Sanders vs. Carly Fiorina
    When asked, GOP political analyst & former U.S. Rep. Lou Frey, what makes Trump a Florida favorite, overpowering both Rubio and former Gov. Jeb Bush in their home state, he replied, “I don’t understand how he’s gotten so many votes, actually, in Florida, but I think he’s earned them. He’s worked hard at it.”

    One thing that surprised analysts Frey (R) & former state Rep. Dick Batchelor(D) was the low number of undecided voters when it came to each party’s primary: 6 percent among likely Democratic voters and only 3 percent among Republicans polled.

    Just for fun, here’s the result between the old wrinkled Socialist and the Senator from Vermont:
    [​IMG]

    Poll methodology:
    The poll was conducted Wednesday 28 October — Sunday 1 November 2015 by SurveyUSA for Bay News 9 and News 13. 3,000 state of Florida adults were interviewed. Of the adults, 2,712 were registered to vote in the state of Florida. Of the registered voters, 2,400 were determined to be likely to vote in the Nov. 8, 2016 general election. Of the registered voters, SurveyUSA determined that 922 were likely to vote in the Republican primary, and 826 were likely to vote in the Democratic primary, both on March 15, 2016.

    This research was conducted using blended sample, mixed mode: respondents reachable on their home telephone (69% of registered voters) were interviewed on their home telephone in the recorded voice of a professional announcer. Respondents not reachable on a home telephone (31% of registered voters) were shown a questionnaire on their smartphone, tablet or other electronic device. Barack Obama carried Florida (the state was “blue”) in both 2008 and 2012.

    Viewpoint Florida poll:
    The post-debate Viewpoint Florida sample size was almost as big, with 2,047 likely Florida Republican primary voters with a margin of error of ±2.2%. The poll shows Trump takes 28 percent of white voters, 13 percent of Hispanic voters and 29 percent of other (Black and Asian) voters. We cannot stress how important this 29% figure is to the GOP, as just earlier today we published How Establishment Republicans Keep Losing the Black Vote: Immigration, Trade, and Criminal Justice, where we detail how Trump (and to a lesser degree Cruz & Carson) will attract Black voters due to their stands on these issues, while the Crony Capitalists in the GOP Establishment are anathema to this constituency

    Also in the Sunshine state, Rubio claims 28 percent of Hispanic voters, 15 percent of white voters and 16 percent of other voters. Carson gets 16 percent of white voters, 6 percent of Hispanics and 19 percent of other voters. More than a third of Hispanics — 36 percent — back Bush as do 10 percent of whites and 6 percent of other voters. Cruz takes 15 percent of Hispanics, 12 percent of whites and 7 percent of other voters. Fiorina pulls only 4 percent of whites and 1 percent of Hispanics but wins the support of 12 percent of other voters.

    But with Bush struggling as he cuts staff salaries and flopping in last week’s debate, the poll shows Rubio benefits greatly if the former governor pulls out of the race. In that scenario, Trump is still ahead with 27 percent followed by Rubio with 24 percent. Carson claims 15 percent and Cruz takes 12 percent while Fiorina gets 6 percent and 7 percent support other candidates.

    If Rubio gets out of the race, Bush does not get the same kind of boost. Trump leads the scenario with 28 percent followed by Carson and Cruz, tied with 19 percent apiece. Bush takes 17 percent in this scenario while 5 percent are for Fiorina and 6 percent support other candidates.

    The IPSOS poll is an online one. That's not scientific, accurate, etc. And that's why it's not in the realclearpolitics averages.

    Except the article I posted, which states clearly they are an online poll. Go figure...

    "Also notable: YouGov and Reuters/Ipsos, which rank an impressive third and fourth in the list, are conducted online."

    “Goode” news for Trump: endorsed by 2012 Constitution cand Virgil Goode

    [​IMG]
    In 2012 Goode did not support the Amnesty Rhinos or Romney, and opted to run on a pro-American policy.

    I am endorsing Donald Trump for President of the United States because he is the only candidate truly focused on reforming our immigration system.
    Our legal and illegal immigration policies threaten our national security, common culture, fiscal integrity, and the wages and employment for the working and middle class.

    Most Americans want to control immigration. However, Democrats support mass immigration for the votes, while the Republican Party refuses to fight back because it is beholden to business interests who support cheap labor. This “bipartisanship” leads to abominations like

    Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)
    ’s Gang of 8 bill, which would give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens and flood the country with tens of millions of foreign workers to undercut Americans.

    Donald Trump has the means and the courage to stand up against open borders mega-donors such as Paul Singer and Sheldon Adelson, who want the GOP to abandon its base for their own financial interests.

    Many other candidates give lip service to opposing illegal immigration and amnesty, but Donald Trump has the courageous plan to stop it. He will mandate E-Verify, build a wall on the Mexican border, and end sanctuary cities, welfare and birthright citizenship for illegals, which serve as magnets for illegal immigration. Also as important, Trump will reform our legal immigration policy to put American workers first.

    Immigration is not the only reason I support Donald Trump. He has shown courage and leadership in standing up to the GOP establishment on other important issues like Obamatrade. However, it is the most important issue facing our country. If we add tens of millions of low skilled and uneducated workers from countries with left wing cultures, it will become impossible for Conservatives to win a national election, and the Democrats will impose their agenda of big government, abortion, and gun control without meaningful opposition.

    Contrary to the claims of the political consultant class, Trump is the only candidate who can defeat Hillary Clinton. Millions of Republican voters stayed home in 2008 and 2012 because they felt the GOP represented the interests of Wall Street rather than those of working Americans. Donald Trump is the best candidate to connect with those voters who feel disaffected from both parties.

    Trump’s success so far speaks for itself. Most of the political, financial, and media establishment have demonized him, yet the American people see through this ruse and have flocked to support him. I am proud to join these millions of patriotic Americans in working to elect Donald Trump as our next president.

    VIDEO–LATINO KIDS BLAST DONALD TRUMP: ‘F*CK YOU, RACIST F*CK!’
    Amnesty activists opposed to Donald Trump and his immigration policies have gone beyond piñatas and have launched a new video featuring children yelling obscene profanities at the Republican frontrunner.
    The new video, hosted at deportracism.com, is linked to a campaign to keep Trump off NBC’s Saturday Night Live and features a young boy and girl shouting words like “motherfuckers,” “fuck,” and “dick,” as well as Spanish profanity. At one point, a boy raises a middle finger to the camera while he holds a sign reading, “Deport this.”

    The script switches back and forth between the two main narrators, and reads as follows:

    ¡Hola, Donald Trump! Screaming, “get out of my country!”, Republicans use offensive words. So here’s a few of our own: Fuck you, racist fuck! We’re Latino kids born in the USA! And we’ve got something to say. I’m Rosa. I’m Ricardo. My friends call me Rick. But you keep calling me “anchor baby”? Wow. Racist dick! When you say Mexican immigrants are rapists, murderers, and drug dealers, you know it’s racist code for words like “spics,” “wetbacks” and “beaners.” And you have attacked people for speaking “Mexican” in this nation. It’s Spanish, idiota! Maybe a little less hairspray and more education? Millions of working Latinos would be deported if you get your loco way, pendejo. If you’re in the White House, for America, there would be nothing but bad hair days. Yo, Trump! You may be high in the polls, thanks to pinches racist suckers, but your whole thing has to come from me. If you try to deport my abuelita, motherfuckers! You see, the Constitution makes me a citizen. And you hate that because I’m brown! And you say you’re a patriot? But you want to tear the Bill of Rights? How? I’m an American, born in the USA. This is my home. You can’t take my rights away. If you don’t like our Constitution and what it stands for, get the fuck out of mycountry. There’s the door!



    The video closes with a now-familiar scene of children beating a Donald Trump piñata, and a message from adult activists inviting viewers to become involved in the 2016 election and urging them to share the video with others.
