An interesting, but biased poll by Detoilet News:

http://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2016/05/31/poll-clinton-sanders-lead-trump-michigan-match-ups/85223072/

Clinton leading Trump in Michigan by just 4 points.

Interestingly, Ron Johnson of the Libertarian party is polling 11.5% of the vote. Interestingly, they didn't considered Jill Stein of the Green Party. Perhaps they were afraid that she will eat in to the vote share of Hitlery.



Gary Johnson?

I was wrong: Trump WILL be the next president

Quote from: Jake Novak
A few months ago, I wrote that Donald Trump would win the GOP presidential nomination – but that would be the end of the line for him. I was sure that Trump just couldn't shore up enough of the already too small Republican base to win in November, thus nearly guaranteeing not only a loss but a big loss to Hillary Clinton in the general election.

Well, I was wrong.

n the 80-odd days since I wrote that piece, I've been seeing more and more evidence of why my predictions for Trump's demise were wrong — and that his chances of winning in the general election look pretty decent.

The biggest reason is something very familiar to CNBC's audience: management. In this case, it's the kind of disruptive management that refuses to accept all the conventional wisdom and truly disrupts the status quo.

Trump, a supposed political neophyte, seems to understand the Republican base better than party leaders. Trump may have failed to win over all the conservative elites represented by people like Bill Kristol and the National Review editorial board. But what I and others forgot was that on Election Day, there's not enough of that conservative elite base to fill a phone booth. Securing their support is no way to win a general election.

And, as Mitt Romney found out the hard way in 2012, even being a more moderate mainstream conservative with experience winning and running a liberal state like Massachusetts isn't good enough to win the White House anymore. And it's also impossible to hold down the conservative support and expand the potential Republican voting base at the same time.

What Trump and his advisers clearly realized a long time ago was that it would have to really disrupt the hardened "red/blue" divide to win. America's demographics, news media, and educational establishments have all successfully destroyed the traditional Republican message for at least a generation....

However, most of the history of the United States includes numerous times that the U.S. brought in migrant workers from Mexico to fill all kinds of jobs.

Cool



Actually, there's a deeper issue here. The tariff-mongers like to claim that the United States rose to greatness in the late 19th century because of protectionism, but that same period did set the all-time speed record for the "Cheap Labour Express." More than one railway magnate bragged about importing Chinese "coolies" to help build a railroad at a pay rate of five cents per hour: a silver half-dollar per day. Yes, the virtually unrestricted immigration of the time did depress wages: that's why the first faction to lobby for immigration restrictions was the American Federation of Labour.

Trouble is, that same era of the "Golden Door." Many of the immigration-reform folks had ancestors who came over during that time, or have friends whose ancestors came in 'round that time. Folks like that, especially successful folks, are emotionally inclined to back some kind of amnesty because they're inclined to compare the illegals to their ancestors. That's one of the reasons why the knocks against Trump's immigration proposal (and Trump himself) resonate in certain circles. 



What circles? The new cotton plantation owner's club? Because their ancestors were treated worse than dirt, facebook like businesses feel entitled to exploit new lives, for their own benefit and for the memory of their ceo ancestors, new lives ready to abuse the social system created and put in place for poor American citizens already suffering..? Like the "Cheap Labour Express" did back then maybe?

Another opinion poll which finds Trump in a good position.

http://www.bostonherald.com/news/local_coverage/herald_bulldog/2016/05/franklin_pierce_herald_poll_shows_tight_nh_race_trouble

Trump and Clinton are essentially tied in New Hampshire, a state which was won in 2012 by Obama (52% vs 46%). NH is not a deep-blue state, but still this means real trouble for Hitlery.

And in another poll, Hitlery leads Trump by just 4% in New Jersey. In 2012, this state was won by Obama with an 18% margin.

Sounds a little conceited.  I've worked with several Mexican software engineers at a company who had fairly rigorous hiring practices and who were at least on par skills wise.  They both happened to look quite 'white', but two is a small sample size.  Both were from Mexico City.  Not sure where they got their graduate degrees (many people from all over the world do that here.)

This is the sort of Mexicans who should be allowed to enter the United States. Instead the government prefers the gangsters of Los Zetas, Mexican Mafia and MS-13. Actually it is extremely difficult for a foreign software engineer to migrate to the United States. The authorities mostly profer the low-skilled ones, who can be a drain to the treasury.

I won't argue the ratios because I don't know and it is difficult to get reliable information.  I suspect that you are correct and in recent years there have been strategic operations to 'import' people who are NOT the 'best and brightest' and the reasons are political.

I remain steadfast in my belief that a great many immigrants from Mexico are here and that they are 'better than average' as I define it.  Again, my definition rests significantly on their work ethic an organizational capabilities which allow them to run successful small businesses.

I'll will use the Hispanic turnout vote for trump to validate or invalidate my feelings about this.  I am not at all surprised to see Hispanics voting for trump in part because of my view on what kind of people a certain fraction of them are.

I will also say that one of the political motivations for this recent 'crisis' is classic divide-n-conquer.  I'm not playing this game and when I see people pumping it I immediately am suspicious.  No matter which side they are coming from.

This is the leitmotiv. Trump sucks but he's in any case better than the other one.
I have no more doubts he's going to be the next US Chief.
