reggin_bolas said: Trump will win the presidency. This is given and determined by the social and political forces that gave rise to Obama's socialism. The people are simply fed up with the liberal agenda. Remember that Obama used to be moderate but turned left-wing. This has caused an imbalance that needs to be redressed. People don't want to live in a socialist utopia because it doesn't exist as Obama proved with his inept policies.

Obama is a moderate, it's just in America the right wing has gone looney tunes and is hyper sensitive to the word socialist. Canada, Europe, Japan, Australia by the US definition are all "socialist" countries then too. What these folkes don't get is the younger generation doesn't view "socialist" as a dirty word any longer.
Bernie Sanders is further to the left than Obama ever was, but he is gaining strong support and even openly states to be a democratic socialist ... times are a changing even in the US.
Sure people on the right are angry, but they're always angry, lol, 'conservative' means they are trying to conserve a past that doesn't exist any longer.
I wouldn't count my chickens on Trump before they hatch either, I could see him easily losing a general election. I think his comments on Latinos will come back to bite him in the ass in a general election as that demographic is going to be hyper-motivated to vote against him and are registering in huge numbers. If he loses a state like Florida because of that, it's basically over for him.
