We're now into mid July and the US Presidential Election is still four months away. Hillary has been spending heavily on TV ads attacking Trump. On the other hand, Trump hasn't spent much of anything relying on news coverage, Twitter, and speaking opportunities to spread the word.
Over the coming months, after the Republican Convention, we're sure to see Trump ratchet up spending. This is the first promo video I've seen from him and it is pretty good.

Hi Menantol, we will know in November who the people prefer. We can then hope for the best outcome. I'm glad that I am living in Australia instead of America, for sure!!! I suspect Scottish Lassie that what you mean by saying that 'you are glad that you are living in Australia rather than America' is meaning something other than what I take it to mean. Australia is a wonderful country and it surely isn't America. But did you mean that as a societal comparison or, that you have better candidates for high office. Hi Menantol, the political party that I voted for is back in power, so I'm happy. At the moment it seems to be chaotic in America not just on the political scene but in respect to the killing of cops and members of the public. It seems the whole country is in upheaval mode. We don't have anything like that here in Australia.

Scottish Lassie, this is not an environment to start a school, but you are demonstrating that your understanding of the United States is one of the 2-dimensional comic book with no depth. If you are actually interested I suggest that you get a copy of the Federalist Papers and read those papers written by James Madison. Here you will find that the case is made (by James Madison) that homogenous political bodies are only viable in small Republics and the United States certainly not a small Republic. In large Republics it is the contention between factions that maintain a form of continuity. Without this a single political concept would take over all and that would be the end of the country. That these factions can take many forms and can be more than contentious and even extend into the aggressive is true. Even so, this becomes the strength of the country.

Hi Menantol, you are no doubt correct in your assumption of my knowledge and interest. My only interest in America is what is shown in the news. I have no profound interest except if it has to do with danger.Certainly not the past as you seem to be caught up in. I wouldn't waste my time.
As far as I am concerned, the past is past and it can stay there. My problems are as trivial as just coping with the Internet and the understanding of my phone. I'm hoping to create a new thread if I can find out how to do it? which will show my real interest.

I suspect that there is some degree of ‘tongue in cheek’ with your posting, but beyond that I have found it interesting how people make comments, even judgements about things without an interest in finding out all of the factors involved.
Reading postings about situations in the United States that desire for lack of knowledge is quite evident. Most often it seems to come from people outside of the United States. The past defines our present. Without knowledge of the past we would continue to make the same mistakes. Without knowledge of the past we will not understand others (and ourselves) and why things are done and what is good or bad.
To a significant extent the United States is guided by the Constitution of the United States and in that context how and why that Constitution was constructed in a specific way. That is why I pointed to the words of James Madison because they directly address the societal (apparent) unrest in the United States. Simply getting things from the news-media provides only a façade of knowledge.

Thanks DAS (formerly BushAdmirer) . When America starts listing the names and posting the faces of the victims of immigrant killers we will win back control of our border and stop letting these problems and criminals in. The leftists only highlight alleged crimes when they feel they can make the citizens of Western civilisation look bad.
Remember forever 12 year old Cally Jo Larson. Tortured and raped + murdered by a savage illegal immigrant monster.
Remember forever Dru Sjojin 22 years old forever tortured and murdered by a savage. The predator should have only been allowed to look at Trump's wall from the south side, if we had politicans that were on our side.
Remember the savage senseless sadistic murder of Josh Wilkerson, 18 years old forever. cnsnews.com/news/article/melanie-hunter/mother-teen-murdered-illegal-immigrant-tells-congress-do-something-it
I couldn't care less if people wish to mock me for remembering these murder victims and wishing to build memerorials along a future Trump's wall to remember these innocent victims of migrants legal and illegal. video.foxnews.com/v/4336793779001/ice-suspect-in-deadly-shooting-had-been-deported-five-times/?#sp=show-clips

Sweden desperately needs a leader like Donald Trump.
I have a good friend who is Swedish. He recently moved to Italy out of disgust with the Swedish government whom he thinks is ruining the country with their brainless immigration policies.
In 1975, the Swedish parliament unanimously decided to change the former homogeneous Sweden into a multicultural country. Forty years later the dramatic consequences of this experiment emerge: violent crime has increased by 300%.
If one looks at the number of rapes, however, the increase is even worse. In 1975, 421 rapes were reported to the police; in 2014, it was 6,620. That is an increase of 1,472%.
Sweden is now number two on the global list of rape countries. According to a survey from 2010, Sweden, with 53.2 rapes per 100,000 inhabitants, is surpassed only by tiny Lesotho in Southern Africa, with 91.6 rapes per 100,000 inhabitants.
Back in 1975, the year when politicians decided that Sweden was to become multicultural, the Swedish population stood at 8,208,442. By 2014 it had grown to 9,743,087 -- an increase of 18.7%. This growth is entirely due to immigration, as Swedish women on average give birth to 1.92 children compared to the 2.24 average of immigrant women. One should, however, keep in mind that in the statistics, second-generation immigrants are counted as Swedes.
Sweden's recent population growth is without parallel. Never before in the country's history has the number of inhabitants increased so fast. Sweden is now the fastest growing country in Europe.
Over the past 10-15 years, immigrants have mainly come from Muslim countries such as Iraq, Syria and Somalia.
On average, people from the Middle East have a vastly different view of women and sex than Scandinavians have. And despite the attempts by the Swedish establishment to convince the population that everyone setting foot on Swedish soil becomes exactly like those who have lived here for dozens of generations, facts point in an altogether different direction.
Research reports on crime in Sweden have become a rarity, but among the eighteen that were done during the 1990s and the 2000s, eleven dealt with rape. Two of these reports dealt with the connection between rape and immigration, and they both confirmed that there is a link.
A new trend reached Sweden with full force over the past few decades: gang rape -- virtually unknown before in Swedish criminal history. The number of gang rapes increased spectacularly between 1995 and 2006. Since then no studies of them have been undertaken.
One of the worst cases occurred in 2012, when a 30-year old woman was raped by eight men in a housing project for asylum seekers, in the small town of Mariannelund. The woman was an acquaintance of a man from Afghanistan who had lived in Sweden for a number of years. He invited her to go out with him. She obliged. The Afghan man took her to a refugee housing project and left her defenseless. During the night, she was raped repeatedly by the asylum seekers and when her "friend" returned, he raped her too. The following morning she managed to call the police. Sweden's public prosecutor has called the incident "the worst crime of rape in Swedish criminal history."
Seven of the men were sentenced to between 4.5 and 6.5 years in prison. Prison time is usually reduced by a third, so it won't be long before the men will be ready for new assaults -- presumably on infidel women.
In cases of gang rape, culprits and victims are most often young and in almost every case, the perpetrators are of immigrant background, mostly from Muslim countries. In an astounding number of cases, the Swedish courts have demonstrated sympathy for the rapists. Several times the courts have acquitted suspects who have claimed that the girl wanted sex with six, seven or eight men.
One striking incident occurred in 2013, in the Stockholm suburb of Tensta. A 15-year-old girl was locked up while six men of foreign extraction had sex with her. The lower court convicted the six men but the court of appeals acquitted them because no violence had occurred, and because the court determined that the girl "had not been in a defenseless position."
This month, all major Swedish media reported on a brutal gang rape on board the Finnish Ferry Amorella, running between Stockholm and Åbo in Finland. Big headlines told the readers that the perpetrators were Swedish:
▪ "Several Swedish Men Suspected of Rape on the Finland Ferry" (Dagens Nyheter). ▪ "Six Swedish Men Raped Woman in Cabin" (Aftonbladet). ▪ "Six Swedes Arrested for Rape on Ferry" (Expressen). ▪ "Eight Swedes Suspected of Rape on Ferry" (TT – the Swedish News Agency).
On closer inspection, it turned out that seven of the eight suspects were Somalis and one was Iraqi. None of them had Swedish citizenship, so they were not even Swedish in that sense. According to witnesses, the group of men had been scouring the ferry looking for sex. The police released four of them (but they are still suspects) whereas four (all Somalis) remain in custody.
The internet radio station Granskning Sverige called the mainstream newspapers Aftonbladet and Expressen to ask why they had described the perpetrators as "Swedish men" when they were actually Somalis. That is irrelevant, said the journalists. They were hugely offended when asked if they felt any responsibility to warn Swedish women to stay away from certain men. One journalist asked why that should be their responsibility.
"If the women knew, then perhaps they would have stayed away from these men and avoided being raped," said the reporter from Granskning Sverige. Whereupon the journalist slammed down the phone.

CNN's poll of likely voters gives Donald Trump a 2 point lead. edition.cnn.com/2016/09/06/_politics-zone-injection/trump-vs-clinton-presidential-polls-election-2016/ Poll: Nine weeks out, a near even raceSept. 6, 2016 Washington (CNN)Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton start the race to November 8 on essentially even ground, with Trump edging Clinton by a scant two points among likely voters, and the contest sparking sharp divisions along demographic lines in a new CNN/ORC Poll. Trump tops Clinton 45% to 43% in the new survey, with Libertarian Gary Johnson standing at 7% among likely voters in this poll and the Green Party's Jill Stein at just 2%. How Donald Trump could win The topsy-turvy campaign for the presidency has seen both Clinton and Trump holding a significant lead at some point in the last two months, though Clinton has topped Trump more often than not. Most recently, Clinton's convention propelled her to an 8-point lead among registered voters in an early-August CNN/ORC Poll. Clinton's lead has largely evaporated despite a challenging month for Trump, which saw an overhaul of his campaign staff, announcements of support for Clinton from several high-profile Republicans and criticism of his campaign strategy. But most voters say they still expect to see Clinton prevail in November, and 59% think she will be the one to get to 270 electoral votes vs. 34% who think Trump has the better shot at winning. Read: The complete CNN/ORC poll results Neither major third party candidate appears to be making the gains necessary to reach the 15% threshold set by the Commission on Presidential Debates, with just three weeks to go before the first debate on September 26. The new poll finds the two major party candidates provoke large gaps by gender, age, race, education and partisanship. Among those likely to turn out in the fall, both candidates have secured about the same share of their own partisans (92% of Democrats back Clinton, 90% of Republicans are behind Trump) but independents give Trump an edge, 49% say they'd vote for him while just 29% of independent voters back Clinton. Another 16% back Johnson, 6% Stein.

Remains to be seen, even if she does win, how long will her heath hold out?
I will it hold out in the run up to the election?
All eyes will be on her.
She can't really afford another episode like that.
And look at this - "frequently" it seems these events are frequent, but they edited it out!! That is dishonest of the broadcaster for starters.
What other footage have they edited out???
They are questions to be answered, can she cope in a chaotic environment?
Or will it trigger some sort of "short-circuit"?
Trump is about 6/4 at the moment.
However I would say Trump is praying she gets better as there is not person in the USA less electable than Hillary (apart from Trump obviously).
