Back in the day when I did a ride along program when we lived in MA I was told and saw it in action where you had to have something that loved your identity if an officer asked.

He promised to crater revenue by cutting personal and corporate taxes. Then he promised the biggest public works project since the Great Wall of China. Do the fucking math.

Thank goodness. Corporations don't pay taxes, the government just make them de facto tax collectors, which is a very inefficient system.

Looks like Ben is slowly gaining on The D. Don't think he is gaining much from Donald supporters, probably more people jumping off various other sinking ships. I would be happy with either. The more I hear Ben speak, the more I like him. Dude has been doing his homework and is one seriously intelligent mofo. I would like to see a Carson-Cruz ticket. Make the Donald sec. of state!!!

WASHINGTON — Republican voters view Donald Trump as their strongest general election candidate, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll that highlights the sharp contrast between the party’s voters and its top professionals regarding the billionaire businessman’s ultimate political strength.

Seven in 10 Republican and Republican-leaning registered voters say Trump could win in November 2016 if he is nominated, and that’s the most who say so of any candidate. By comparison, 6 in 10 say the same for retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who, like Trump, has tapped into the powerful wave of antiestablishment anger defining the early phases of the 2016 contest.

“It’s the lifelong establishment politicians on both sides that rub me the wrong way,” said registered Republican Joe Selig, a 60-year-old carpenter from Vallejo, California. “I think Trump is more electable. He’s strong. We need strength these days.”

Trump and Carson are considered among the least electable general election candidates by the Republican Party’s professionals, those who are in the business of helping candidates run campaigns and win elections.

Experienced political strategists note that winning a general election and winning the Republican nomination are often very different tasks. The GOP’s most conservative voters – a group that is older and whiter than the nation as a whole – wield extraordinary influence in picking the nominee. Independents, moderate voters and minorities are far more important in general elections that draw many more people to the polls.

While Trump and Carson are popular in primary election polls, both have used divisive rhetoric in recent months that alienated some minorities. Trump called Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals during his announcement speech; while Carson said he would not support a Muslim presidential candidate.

“Republicans think (Democrat) Hillary (Rodham Clinton) is weaker than she is. They are wrong,” said GOP operative Katie Packer, who was deputy campaign manager for 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney. “They think we don’t need to win more women or more Hispanics to win. They’re wrong.”

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who has embraced a welcoming tone with Hispanics, tops the field of experienced political leaders on the question of electability, running about even with Carson and slightly behind Trump.

Six in 10 Republicans say Bush could win the general election and 54 percent say the same about Florida Sen. Marco Rubio. There’s a drop-off among the rest of the GOP’s 2016 crowded class. None of the other candidates is viewed as electable in a general election by more than half of Republican voters.

Carson and Trump are the candidates most likely to receive positive ratings from Republican voters, with 65 percent saying they have a favorable opinion of Carson and 58 percent saying the same of Trump. Republicans are somewhat less excited about Bush, with 48 percent giving him a favorable rating.

“If he weren’t a Bush, I wouldn’t even know his name,” said Republican Leslie Millican, a 34-year-old housewife from Magnolia, Arkansas. “I like the other Bushes. Something about (Jeb Bush) – he ain’t grown on me yet.”

Trump and Bush have the highest negative ratings within their own party: 37 percent of Republican voters say they have an unfavorable opinion of Bush and 36 percent say the same of Trump.

Their negatives are even more pronounced among the broader electorate. The AP-GfK poll found Trump is viewed unfavorably by 57 percent of those surveyed, the highest negatives of any Republican candidate. Bush is next with unfavorable ratings from 48 percent of all respondents.

Overall, all but one GOP candidate is viewed more unfavorably than favorably by all those questioned. Carson is the exception, drawing about equally positive and negative views. He remains unknown by a significant portion of the electorate.

Among Republican voters, all the candidates except New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have a net positive rating. Carson tops the list, followed by Rubio, former technology executive Carly Fiorina and then Trump.

The poll also found a sharp difference between the political parties over experience.

By an overwhelming 77 percent to 22 percent margin, Republican registered voters and leaners say they prefer an outsider candidate who will change how things are done, rather than someone with experience in Washington who can get things done. They prefer someone with private sector leadership experience over experience holding elected office, 76 percent to 22 percent.

Trump, Carson and Fiorina are the only Republican candidates who have never held elective office. Clinton, the Democratic front-runner, is a former first lady, secretary of state and senator.

Perhaps that helps explain why Democrats prefer experience over outsider status, 67 percent to 32 percent, and experience in office over private sector experience 66 percent to 33 percent.

Republican strategist John Feehery says Trump is considered electable now only because he hasn’t yet been the subject of a multimillion dollar negative ad campaign, which will happen should he maintain his lead in the polls.

“Right now, he serves a valuable purpose as a front-runner, especially for the Democrats,” Feehery said. “They would love him to be our nominee.”

Any day now...

These brainless asstards are shit-whistling past the graveyard. Trump has flipped the script on the donor class and they have absolutely no idea how to respond. This dumbfuck thinks money is going to save Yeb Boosh? Keep dreaming. He doesn't have any.

They know something is happening here but they don't know what it is...

Ben vs Hillary would be quite the theater. These so called Black leaders would have to backpedal and spin out of things they said to help get Barry O elected.

Further some have alluded to "skeletons" in Ben's closet that have to do with infedility. Something Hillary tolerated in her own marriage. If it is true that he does have said past how will Hillary handle?

“My own personal theory is that Joseph built the pyramids to store grain,” Carson said.

“Now all the archaeologists think that they were made for the pharaohs’ graves. But, you know, it would have to be something awfully big if you stop and think about it. And I don’t think it’d just disappear over the course of time to store that much grain.”

Carson added: “And when you look at the way that the pyramids are made, with many chambers that are hermetically sealed, they’d have to be that way for various reasons.

“And various of scientists have said, ‘Well, you know there were alien beings that came down and they have special knowledge and that’s how, you know, it doesn’t require an alien being when God is with you.”

Carson told CBS News on Wednesday: “It’s still my belief, yes.”

I've read this stupid opinion multiple times

Anything made in China can be made anywhere else - there's cheap labor all over the world

The difference being those countries won't artificially keep their currency lower, and won't require our companies to build manufacturing plants there in order to sell into their markets

Here's a clue - China needs us (and access to our consumers) far more than we need them
Trump is not talking about moving manufacturing from China to India. He is talking about moving it back here. This will mean prices will have to rise somewhat, cutting into the profits of the wally-mart folks who have gotten rich along with their Chinese buddies. As for the currency manipulation thing, perhaps they do it, but, even if they didn't, the simple fact is that chinks will work for slave wages and to compete with them, we have to do a few things differently. We can't match them wage wise, but, we can get government to stop strangling businesses with over regulation and confiscatory tax rates.

I agree that China needs us way more than we need them. It is time we started acting that way.

Don't disagree with anything you say, I just don't believe that currency manipulation is as big a factor as he makes it. There really is a simple solution. We need to inform countries that we WILL have a trade balance with all partners. We will buy from them, so long as they buy from us. Wanna sell more shit to us? Buy more from us. It's pretty simple.

Washington (CNN) — Conservative blogger and radio host Erick Erickson said Wednesday he's had a number of conversations about laying the groundwork for a third-party candidate to oppose Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the general election.

Erickson, a leader of the #NeverTrump movement, told CNN that he plans more such conversations in the coming days, and that the consensus among anti-Trump conservatives is that voters who won't support Trump or Clinton need another option.

"Donald Trump cannot consolidate the Republican base and many Republicans cannot accept a Hillary Clinton donor as the Republican nominee," Erickson said. "If the delegates ratify this madness in Cleveland, many of us will look elsewhere for a credible candidate to oppose both Trump and Clinton."

He added: "We will begin now laying the groundwork for an exit strategy from Donald Trump's Republican Party."

Erickson said several names are being floated, but wouldn't say whom. Erickson added that he and other conservatives interested in a third-party candidate understand that they're facing a tight window to recruit a candidate and launch a campaign.

The conservative push to find a third-party candidate comes as party loyalists who'd sought delegate slots at the upcoming Republican National Convention in Cleveland back out, saying they can't support Trump.

In Indiana, Joshua Claybourn, an Evansville Republican, had already claimed a delegate spot for the RNC -- but told CNN he's backing out.

"I will neither vote for, nor in any other way support, Mr. Trump," he said in a statement. Claybourn pointed to Trump's opposition of free trade deals, the candidate's "skeptical" approach to free speech, and Trump's lack of "a mature temperament needed at home and abroad."

He said: "I believe a Trump presidency would bring less peace, more economic hardship, and a greater deterioration of freedom and respect. I cannot in good conscience attend a convention supporting him."

Nebraska Republican Sen. Ben Sasse, who has long opposed Trump, wrote a Facebook post calling for a third-party candidate.

"With Clinton and Trump, the fix is in. Heads, they win; tails, you lose," Sasse wrote. "Why are we confined to these two terrible options? This is America. If both choices stink, we reject them and go bigger. That's what we do."

He added that although he is a staunch conservative, he's "not interested in an ideological purity test, because even a genuine consensus candidate would almost certainly be more conservative than either of the two dishonest liberals now leading the two national parties."

Art Pope, an influential North Carolina donor, said he withdrew his name from the delegate slate for the upcoming state convention there, saying he no longer wants to go to Cleveland.

"At this point in time I do not plan to actively support Donald Trump," Pope told CNN. "That's why I'm not going to the Republican National Convention."
