    "When I’m president I’m a different person. I can do anything. I can be the most politically correct person you have ever seen," Trump said at a rally in Pella, Iowa, on Saturday.
    That is hilarious....after all the BS he is spewing about how political correctness is ruining the USA?

    What a colossal douchebag!!

    “I’m doing it from the heart—and the brain,” Mr. Trump said. “A lot of it resonates.”
    “A lot of times I sound negative, but ultimately I’m positive,” he said. “ ‘Make America Great Again’ is a very positive campaign.”

    Make America Great Again is a euphemistic way of saying that America sucks.
    Not very positive.

    why don't you quote the one from today when he said he will be the most politically correct president when he needs to be?
    "You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry."  - Lincoln

    "Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."

    People romanticize the 1950s, post war.. a time when women didn't work and blacks were segregated. Yeah, 'Merica was so great back then.

    My guess is Trump supporters would like to go back to that time period. Sounds like their idea of a "great" society.

    When they scream about wanting their country back, they really want their war criminal heroes of Halluburtonghazzi back because their double standards say so.

    it's interesting that I read in Maclean's last night that, and it may have been mentioned already, that the majority of Trump's supporters are typically less educated than his detractors.

    Yes the poll I saw said that around 67% of his supporters do not have college degrees. And as I said before having a college degree doesn't necessarily mean you are smarter than someone who doesn't but that statistic is very telling as a whole.

    I'm sure it's been hashed over here multiple times, but you are talking about older whites with a HS only education, in general, who are hurting in this new economy. Trump is really, really smart. He knows where the meat is. People that feel left behind. So they are blaming immigrants (illegal and legal... that's why you are hearing about H1-B visas for the first time as a political issue) and free trade.
    Second, I've also seen some interesting psychological polling about people who are attracted to an authoritarian. It exists on both sides of the aisle but far more prevalent on the right. I don't love the questions posed here because as a parent, I could see both sides. But take a look http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/01/donald-trump-2016-authoritarian-213533

    yes, of course it has nothing to do with smarts. it didn't say IQ scores, it stated education. but I think too many people might believe one is indicative of the other.

    Obummer? What are we trolling on the Drudge links now? Shall we use the name "Hiltlary" next and call us Libtards? I think you are in the wrong place if you are going down that path. But here's something for you to chew on.. this is from Cornell post 2012 election. Although the bachelor degree crowd went to Romney 51-47, the post bachelor education went far heavier to Obama. How do you explain that? Do people get dumber as they pursue their doctorates, MBAs, etc?

    I anxiously await your thoughtful, well articulated reply.

    Despite have a few college degrees, I agree that a college education does not make me smarter than someone without one. Or more financially successful. I have a nephew who by his mid twenties became more wealthy than I'll ever be and he never graduated from high school. So what we should be talking about here is common sense. I don't see people supporting Trump as having much common sense. He will wreck havoc on your world (not to mention the planet). Think he is there for the common man and woman? Think again.

    Liberty University president Jerry Falwell Jr., the son of the late televangelist, endorsed Donald Trump on Tuesday, giving the Republican front-runner the blessing of one of the evangelical community’s biggest names just days before the Iowa caucuses.

    In a statement, Falwell called Trump “a successful executive and entrepreneur, a wonderful father and a man who I believe can lead our country to greatness again.”
