There is a very simple answer and it doesn’t involve anything other than the fact that online surveys/polls are self-selecting, ie, you have to go looking for them. Self-selecting polls are notoriously biased and unreliable. Self-selecting polls say a lot about the dedication of Trump’s supporters than they do about the popularity of Trump.

Remember all those online polls that Ron Paul won last time around?

” It’s like Andrew Jackson is coming to town and bringing the unwashed masses with him. “

Exactly. It’s deja vu all over again. And I like it.

Not really. There were a couple of IA polls, and a UT poll, and one older TX poll that had Trump down, but the thing about this election cycle us that despite 6-7 exception, Trump has led in EVERY state and national poll for 5 months.

It’s Trump coming to town and shutting down The Cheap Labor Express.

Much bigger.

They have invested billions keeping the laws unenforced and the borders open. They started the “fundamental transformation” of our country long before anyone had heard of Barry Soetoro.
They are literally stealing our country from us right in front of our eyes by flooding it with foreigners.

The political coverage of the Republican presidential primary is totally obsessed with Iowa and New Hampshire.

Iowa is weird because it is not a primary state but a caucus state. To win, a candidate has to be able to get his supporters to go to a local gathering place and gather with like-minded folks and the supporters of other candidates.

It's far different from an election, where you can run in at any time during the day and vote. Often the candidates who end up winning lose Iowa.

No one paid much attention to Iowa until 1976, when Jimmy Carter launched his successful presidential bid by winning Iowa while no one else was looking. Since then it has become a state whose importance to the news media far outweighs its actual importance in picking a winner.

In New Hampshire, people actually go vote like they do in most of the country.

There is a high school near a park that I go to that had it’s name changed after Bradley. The parents did not like it and it was changed back to the original name. Tom Bradley was a corrupt mayor.

I’m predicting that actual votes for Trump are at least 5% higher than poll numbers, perhaps even near 10%.

California stands a very good chance of going Republican for the first time since Reagan. LINK

‘’Obama has a demonic evil spirit inside him, it now occupies the oval office and will never willingly leave. Whoever the candidate is that is most likely to receive that same evil spirit will be its next occupant.’’

Let’s hope the demon is possessing Obama himself and not the space. I believe it possesses him, judging by what he says and does when not in the White Hut.

‘’Hillary’s entourage is already arriving out front, she wont be kept waiting.’’

Maybe she’ll return the silverware they stole when they left in 2001.

Does no one see what goes on at his rallies? Last week, some FReeper posted to me that Trump's rally participants are "bused-in union thugs". Oy!

Well, that’s fine. They want to propagandize all of this.

The problem they’re going to have is when 45% of NY democrats secretly vote for him. In every state

And after republicans rally around him after the nomination

What do they think? We can continue this invasion?

Wait til they’re like people in some Texas cities unable to get work for not speaking Spanish

I mean do they not see?

Ya know, I do realize that when I make comments like that, most people will just presume its hyperbole or over the top, ignore it as silly etc.,

But the truth is I honestly believe it. I never thought Bill and Hillary or Bush Sr. or any President or any historically important elected leader in the United States had something demonic hosted and operating directly inside them empowering them, until now.

We’ve moved far beyond the realm of good people having polite disagreements in ideology. This is now a time for choosing, we all saw the DNC convention reject God in Heaven, there is nothing new under the sun and this has all been done before,

For anyone reading this that may have spiritual discernment or who knows someone with that gift (which comes only from the Holy Spirit) ask them what they see when they look into the eyes of this evil Obama. He is demonic, and there is no way to defeat this power now except through believers praying and fasting, it cannot be defeated in the political arena, even so we still we have to try. I don’t believe we have enough of the population aware and awake to turnaround the downward trajectory, I believe the blessings are leaving us and that they have been so great that we’re still coasting along with the wind at our backs, we cant continue much longer,

“Maybe she’ll return the silverware they stole when they left in 2001.”

I visited the White House in 2008, and while standing just outside the Oval Office looking at the Norman Rockwell painting of the Statue of Liberty, I was told by one of the staff that the Clinton’s had tried to make off with it, saying it was “a gift” from Stephen Spielberg to them personally. The Treasury Dept forced them to return it,

How it can be that more than 40% of the population in this nation right now will vote to empower a saul alinsky disciple like Hillary Clinton so full of vitriol and arrogance, a wicked person lusting for power over them and their children to be acknowledged as their queen and forcing them to do the will of the all-powerful state, this is why I say she will be the next President unless enough believers rise up.

‘’But the truth is I honestly believe it.’’

I do, too. Definitely demonic. I believed that during his first campaign. When I see him I have the same reaction as I do when seeing a snake.

I don’t believe that God intends for America to survive and Obama is the impetus to take us out. Many theologians believe that the USA is not referred to in Revelation which means that it does not survive to the end.
