Rasmussen Pollster: Still Looks Like 'Trump vs. Clinton' in November
Newsmax ^ | 2/10/2016 | Cathy Burke

All signs point to a general election matchup between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton — despite the stunning New Hampshire win for Democratic presidential contender Sen. Bernie Sanders and the deep pockets of establishment GOP campaigners, according to one pollster.

"Forget the day-after hoopla," Fran Coombs, the managing editor of Rasmussen Reports, writes Wednesday.

"It's still looking like Trump vs. Clinton this November."

Trump's firm hold on the GOP primary will be tough to topple as he continues to capitalize on voter anger with the establishment, Coombs writes.

"Considering that 87 percent of Republicans and 67 percent of all voters are angry at the current policies of the federal government, that seems to be shaping up as pretty good campaign strategy," she writes.

Yes, this is all being done to get Jeb Bush the candidacy.

Don’t forget the Liberian and Somali communities. The Government funded ‘charities’ have been importing foreign enclaves there for a while.

When Ted was born, his parents hadnt’t lived in Canada long enough for them to get Canadian citizenship.

Ted’s mom was born in the u.s. and would have married her first husband well —after— the law changed about women losing their citizenship if they married a foreigner (even if they didn’t leave the u.s.). That law was no longer in effect.

How could she have become a British subject if she never left the u.s. till after she divorced him?

Ted’s dad got Canadian citizenship after Ted was born.

I know where Eleanor Darragh was born. That doesn’t matter if she renounced her U.S. citizenship when she married a Brit.

Does marrying a foreigner, in this case a British person, while still in the u.s., cause a woman to renounce their citizenship?

That law was done away with long ago.

In the case of Eleanor, how do we know that she renounced her citizenship?

You keep saying she was living in the U.S. while married to Mr.Wilson; what proof do you have of that?

One of the U.K. papers interviewed him, and it sounded like she moved to England and had a baby girl there, then emigrated to Canada following their divorce.

One could not at the time start a business in Canada unless you were a citizen of Canada, and I suspect it is still the law there. It takes a while to acquire Canadian citizenship [3 years?] but she seems to have had it very quickly as she was on the voting rolls. When one is a British subject you can switch your allegiance to Canada very quickly.

Sen.Cruz could, of course, provide papers and clarify everything. But he will not do so because he is not a U.S. citizen and works for the same Globalists who are behind Obama. Neither man gives a damn about American sovereignty.

Ok lets look at where eleanor first got married:
What proof do you have that Eleanor married Mr. Wilson -outside- of the u.s.?

IIRC, marrying a foreigner outside the US does not make a woman lose her us citizenship. That law went out long before she married Mr Wilson.

Even if she moved to England and had a child there and then divorced Mr Wilson, how did she meet and marry ted’s dad in the US if she went right from England to Canada ?

One needs to be a resident of Canada for 4 or 5 years before being eligible for Canadian citizenship; she didn’t have that.

What you call a voting roll was a preliminary count of residents, not voters.
That would be sorted out in the next step, I.e. voter registration/citizenship check, which the first enumeration was -not-.

I haven’t looked into the canada business startup rules yet.

Yes, I have heard much about the Somali communities. Didn't know about the Liberian ones. Was in Spokane at the Dollar Store and five kids storm in and start running all around the store. Right after them, four ladies walk in like they own the place and spread out. They had African style dress and were speaking a language I'd never heard before.

These days the politicians are so shameless that they would spin holding the debates in federal prisons as “felon lives matter.”

“You see NV, NJ, CO, OR, MD, DE, CT all going to The Donald? You dream.”

I can see it happening.

When Bernie gets scammed out of the nomination, his voters will vote for Trump out of revenge and because they don’t totally dislike him. They hate hillary more.

I agree they'll all be close but if this wave turns into a tsunami, they are doable.

That it is. 270 first, then anything above that is gravy. 270! Fight!
