Democratic voters are more convinced than they have been in months that Hillary Clinton will represent their party in next year’s presidential election.
In a heated exchange during last week's Republican presidential primary debate, Senator Rand Paul criticized fellow Senator Marco Rubio for his calls to substantially increase defense spending when the United States already spends more on its military than the next 10 countries combined. Turns out just half of U.S. voters are aware of how much this country spends compared to the rest of the world, and a plurality wants the figure to increase.
Riots in black neighborhoods. Rebellions on campus. The news these past few months and particularly in the past week has been full of stories that remind us, as William Faulkner wrote a little more than half a century after the Civil War, "the past is never dead. It's not even past." We're seeing something that looks eerily like the recurrence of events that led, half a century ago, to the destruction of much of our cities and much of our campuses.
Front-runner Hillary Clinton didn’t move an inch among Democratic voters following Saturday night’s debate even though there were two fewer candidates on stage. She also clearly has a problem with younger voters.

Someone once said that the First World War was the most stupid thing that European nations ever did. Countries on both sides of that war ended up worse off than before, whether they were on the winning side or the losing side.
Twenty-eight percent (28%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey for the week ending November 12.
Voters remain less confident in their safety here at home than they have ever been, and that’s before the horrific weekend massacres by radical Islamic terrorists in Paris.
Hillary Clinton is still in line to win the Democratic Party's nomination to be the next commander in chief, but few Americans in the military have a good impression of her.
The Democratic presidential hopefuls face off again this weekend, but their debate isn’t likely to impact the race anymore than the latest Republican one did.
Is Donald Trump starting to look less like a sure thing in the race for the Republican presidential nomination?
Every day brings new headlines, ignored by the Washington press corps, of U.S. workers losing their livelihoods to cheap H1-B visa replacements.
Just this week, Computerworld reported: "Fury and fear in Ohio as IT jobs go to India."
Tuesday night's Fox Business/Wall Street Journal debate in Milwaukee provided clues as to why Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz have been climbing, not by wide margins but perceptibly, into the top-polling positions of the candidates behind the two poll leaders, Donald Trump and Ben Carson.
The outsiders are still leading the pack in Rasmussen Reports’ latest look at the Republican presidential primary race following Tuesday night’s debate.
Active duty military and veterans tend to favor increased U.S. combat involvement against the radical Islamic group ISIS and aren't as concerned as the American public in general about the willingness of political leaders to put soldiers' lives on the line.
Global warming advocates are calling for the prosecution of groups who disagree with them, and New York State has taken it a step further by investigating Exxon Mobil for refusing to play ball with the popular scientific theory.
Based on the election calendar, white evangelical Christians are going to receive ample attention early in the 2016 Republican primary. Using exit poll data from the 2012 and 2008 GOP primaries, as well as data from the Census Bureau and the Public Religion Research Institute’s American Values Atlas to help estimate numbers for states with no exit polls, we found that about two-thirds (64%) of the total delegates in states with contests on or before March 8 will come from states with electorates that may be at least 50% white evangelical.
Most Americans still think college sports programs are too powerful and a bad influence on institutions of higher learning.
Local crime remains a problem for most Americans who also feel that local cops aren't aggressive enough in dealing with it.
Sometimes I like Donald Trump. He makes me laugh when he mocks reporters' stupid questions.
