The Obama Factor, can POTUS do a Reagan - Election 2016

BBC News: Reports on what President Obama brings to the 2016 Election, " It requires going back all the way to 1988 to find the last time an incumbent president was an unalloyed good in a presidential election. Ronald Reagan, despite the Iran-Contra scandal several years earlier, was still very popular and an active presence on the campaign trail. He gave George HW Bush a decided boost during the Republican convention, positioning his vice-president as the heir to his political legacy. "

Lets Get Real:

In the latest daily tracking poll from Gallup,  President Obama has an approval rate of 51%, the Clinton Campaign should use Obama on the trail, it can be argued that the Al Gore Campaign of 2000 did not use Bill Clinton well to get out the vote in the South.  The Oval Office should go after Trump and his racist remarks.   The question is that enough to get HRC in to the Oval Office, it might be, but one has to point out that HRC is no Obama, she is a weak candidate, thus she needs the Sanders supporters to support her now that she is the official nominee of the Democratic Party.   Thus one should expect that HRC will start to draw away from Trump in the polls, if they are still neck and neck later on it could be trouble for HRC and the Democrats. 

Donald Trump is a Racist - US Latest

Telegraph: Reports  that Paul Ryan, " the speaker of the House, yesterday issued a stinging rebuke of Donald Trump's statements about a judge of Mexican descent, calling them "the textbook definition of a racist comment". "

Lets Get Real:

That is the problem when your a billionaire every tells you that your great, thus it must be come as a shock to Trump to have the Republican elite call him out about his comments about a US Judge born and bread in the US.    One does wonder why he is near the poll standing of HRC, that is simple, neither candidate is perfect, both have high negatives, and the US voter has to choose between them, thank goodness this voter does not have the vote, it would be the 1st election for this voter not to vote.   At least the EU vote has not become the mess of the US Presidential election, clear in or out.   The answer if you wondering is OUT.

Blair Supporters and Tony Blair - The Iraq Report

Guardian:  Reports " The Blairite thing to do is to divorce from Blair and, instead of harking back to the past, establish something fresh for the future. And, preferably, tell Blair to cease and desist. "

Lets Get Real:

The above is the latest thinking on Tony Blair and the Iraq War and it is wrong.  The Labour Party if it wants to win the next general election has to learn to LOVE Blair again, he won three elections, had many domestic reforms that have not been overturned, such as the Scottish Parliament and the Welsh Assembly, among many others, the Party has to return to the Centre of of UK politics, the election of Jeremy Corbyn has shown that the Labour Party does not get the one simple fact, a election is won in the centre not in the extremes.  This blog supported the Iraq War and still does, it is the successors to Blair and Bush 43 who were weak and thus allowed for the raise of Daesh, an going fight that is not the fault of Blair. 

Hillary Clinton the Democratic Nominee - US Latest

BBC News: Reports " The Associated Press says Mrs Clinton has already reached the 2,383 delegates needed, taking into account pledges of support from so-called superdelegates. "

Lets Get Real:

Thus the Democratic race is over, HRC is the nominee, this blog would not invite either Clinton or Trump to a dinner party, one is a racist and the other needs a truth serum, out of population of over three hundred million it is odd that both Dems and Republicans have chosen candidates with the most negatives in the polls.   At least this blog is supporting HRC because it could never support Trump, let this blog be clear it is knows that Clinton is a very bad candidate, has problem with the truth, and uses English like her husband to hide the truth.  Thus fun few months for this blog, even if bore for everyone else. 

Republican Super Pact ATTACKS the Clintons - Update 2016

Trump on Gingrich - US Latest

Guardian - US Politics Live: Reports in its 3.19pm post the following  " Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump told Fox News this morning it was “inappropriate” for former House speaker Newt Gingrich to criticize his racialized attacks on a federal judge in the multi-state fraud suit against Trump University. Trump’s remarks perhaps put a damper on rumors that the one-time Georgia congressman is being vetted as a potential running mate. "

Lets Get Real:

In his remarks the former House Speaker was spot on, one can almost argue that Trump needs him more that Gingrich needs the Trump Campaign.   The former Speaker has two good point, he can be an attack dog and and was a former House Speaker, if the Republicans keep the House it would be good for  President Trump to have Gingrich has his VP, he knows the Halls of power, the Donald is showing why he is not fit to be President.    Someone in the Trump Campaign needs to be take the Donald in hand and tell him some few home truths, being critical of an American born Judge is not the greatest political move, shows all the weakness as stated by HRC. 

The Clinton Scandals - Bill and Hillary Clinton

Telegraph: Reports " Hillary Clinton 'gave Bill a black eye' in White House, book claims "

Lets Get Real:

Let's be honest here, if Hillary gave President Clinton a black eye he had it coming for all his alleged affairs through out their marriage, it shows HRC as a real person, she gets peeved with the old hound dog, what wife would not, this allegation has nothing to do with her bid for the Presidency in 2016, old news, someone trying to sell a tell all book.   The issues that concern the US voter are the economy and the disaster that is the Obama foreign policy.
