[quote]Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump leads Democrat Hillary Clinton head-to-head, according to a new poll released Friday.
The poll by SurveyUSA finds that matched up directly, Trump garners 45 percent to Clinton’s 40 percent.
In other head-to-head matchups, Trump beats out Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) by 44 percent to 40 percent; Vice President Joe Biden by 44 percent to 42 percent; and former Vice President Al Gore by 44 percent to 41 percent.
Trump’s surge past Clinton marks a dramatic turnaround in the polls.
A CNN/ORC sampling of national voters in late June — just days after Trump entered the race — found that 59 percent supported Clinton to 34 percent picking Trump in a head-to-head race.
The same poll taken in July saw Clinton at 57 percent to Trump at 38 percent. And a version taken in August had Clinton with 52 percent support and Trump with 43 percent.
Trump has seen his campaign’s popularity surge through the summer while Clinton’s has struggled with voter concerns over her transparency and trustworthiness as secretary of State.
The poll also found that 30 percent of respondents believe Trump will eventually be the Republican nominee, leading the field.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush came in second, with 20 percent saying they expect him to win the nomination. Following Bush in order were retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.).
The poll surveyed 1,000 adults across the nation Sept. 2-3, and it had a margin of error of 3.3 percent.[/quote]

You see, Bob: a country is like an [i]enormous[/i] clock...

Wow, is the republican party really that weak right now? If it becomes Trump VS Bernie, than I think it'll be an easy win for Bernie.

Everyone always says this when something that appears to be bad has a chance of happening and it happens and they never do -- from both Republicans and Democrats
Bernie Sanders is possibly the only Presidential candidate that can go against Trump. If not, all hell is going to break loose.

I don't think he is running as independent

He will if he doesn't get the nomination, which he won't. His word means nothing

And everyone who says this must be someone of extreme importance and will likely leave a large void where there presence once was. So it's a big deal

pretty sure "Banned?" is an ordinary guy
also I bet important people would have something more tying them to America -- or even just stay because he can only at most be president for 8 years, without a chance in hell he'll get more than 4 if he's as bad as you all make him out to be. Moving to Canada -- the place that every hardcore left winger says they'll move to but never will -- would be a little overreaction, don't you think?
I'm pretty sure that this is just within their own party's voter base. If so, then this really doesn't mean jack shit, because the much more moderate independents would never go for a loon like Trump.
If Trump gets elected, I'll never leave this country because being American would be too embarrassing

it's already pretty embarrassing, good luck
Besides Italy, maybe, they kept voting for Berlusconi.
Muh automerge.

It's not, it's a random sample of national voters.

no you wont
Well, Trump is better than Hilary, that's for sure.
If Trump wins the election, then I fully support any US refugees who wish to come here.
Basically here's what happened with trump:
When Obama got elected, a bunch of racist guys called the tea party got all pissy about it and elected a bunch of evangelical nutjobs to congress in retaliation. These evangelists then decided to do [i]absolutely nothing[/i] for the last like, 5 years. As a result, people got pretty pissed off at the entire political system, regardless of the fact that it's been a republican house that has deliberately fucked progress in the US. So, when political cynicism gets really REALLY bad, and we lose all faith in the government and political system of the USA, the American people decide "fuck it, let's elect the worst possible candidate to president; the orange guy who says stupid racist shit from that TV show. That will show the government that we're really pissed off at them!"
As a result, the American political system becomes even more of a joke since apparently any idiot who says stupid shit can get elected, so why the fuck not elect a 10 foot tall dildo or a porn star or the ghost of fucking Richard Nixon. basically, Donald Trump is the death knell of democracy in America and only proves that most Americans are in fact fucking idiots.
We're not [I]great[/I], but we're better than Trump.
^ Fuck your automerge
also hows the CS market in other countries?
