So what do you read that you feel is not corrupt?
Any sites in particular that you deem worthy? Or just certain posters on a sports board?
i suppose but it would be cool to have a None of the Above option just to see how many people would choose it.
Cosigned. One of my favorite things about the internet is being able to get away from the media's grip, but we'll see how long that lasts.

Riches-to-Riches Trump Spins Fake Horatio Alger Tale
Trump inherited a massive fortune and has underperformed both the economy as a whole and the real estate market.
Donald Trump on Monday told a Colorado audience that all his business success stemmed from “a small loan” from his father
his stewardship of the $200 million real estate empire he took control of four decades ago has failed to keep pace with either the general real estate market or the economy as a whole.
The loan had little to do with the main source of Trump’s wealth, which was the real estate and construction company his father had built over a number of decades.
Trump has actually underperformed both the stock market as well as the real estate market.
Had Trump taken his share of what would become his father’s inheritance and put it into an index fund matching the S&P 500 back in 1974, it would have been worth $3 billion today.
Had he put the $200 million that Fortune magazine determined he was worth in 1982 into that same index fund, he would be worth more than $8 billion today.
And had that $200 million gone into the broad real estate market, it would be worth more than $20 billion today.
Trump claims he is worth more than $10 billion, but independent analyses have put the figure at less than half that. Two banks that appraised his net worth a decade ago came up with values of $788 million and $1.2 billion.

Text TRUMP to 88022 right meow if you support Trump
ReLly they did a poll against him and president and the president was not doing any better then clinton
who is they who did against poll for Obama
Negative.
Both candidates are flawed but people still want an outsider badly. For some reason in the GOP side, Trump is fitting that bill.
Biden is a complete insider candidate with a lot less baggage than Clinton.
My guess is that he'd be leading Trump by no more than 5 points on average which is right around where Hillary is at the moment. Landslides dont happen anymore in this political climate we're in. The country is split right down the middle.
I find it hard to believe Biden would be up 10-15 points. That just doesn't play anymore.
right meow...

Donald Trump had chances to make American manufacturing greater—andhe went with China
A Newsweek investigation has found that in at least two of Trump’s last three construction projects, Trump opted to purchase his steel and aluminum from Chinese manufacturers rather than United States corporations based in states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin.When companies like Trump’s buy steel from China, they cost jobs in the U.S.—in states like Ohio and Pennsylvania, where Trump has been emphasizing his ugly brand of fake populism.
In other instances, he abandoned steel altogether, instead choosing the far-less-expensive option of buying concrete from various companies, including some linked to the Luchese and Genovese crime families.
Trump has never been accused of engaging in any wrongdoing for his business dealings with those companies, but it’s true that the Mafia has long controlled much of the concrete industry in New York.
Throughout his campaign, Trump has maintained that some controversial decisions for his companies amounted to nothing more than taking actions that were good for business, and were therefore reflections of his financial a en.
But, with the exception of one business that collapsed into multiple bankruptcies, Trump does not operate a public company; he has no fiduciary obligation to shareholders to obtain the highest returns he can.
His decisions to turn away from American producers were not driven by legal obligations to investors, but simply resulted in higher profits for himself and his family.

Trump denied use of NC civil rights museum
The International Civil Rights Center and Museum in Greensboro denied Donald Trump’s request to hold an event at the museum two weeks ago – and has faced retaliation from his supporters because of it, according to the museum’s CEO.
John Swaine said the Trump campaign was trying to plan the Republican nominee’s visit to the historic museum Sept. 20, the same day he campaigned in High Point and Kenansville. Swaine said that campaign staff asked to videotape Trump walking around the museum and requested that the museum shut down for five hours to accommodate his visit.
“We made it known to Mr. Trump’s campaign that we were not going to grant a request of suspending our operations so he could somehow try to legitimize his ideological positions,” Swaine told The News & Observer. “The landmark is very important – it’s not just a political backdrop.”
The museum is in the former F.W. Woolworth building, the site of the 1960 lunch counter sit-in protest against segregated eating establishments. The facility seeks to commemorate the historic sit-in and to promote equality today.
Swaine said museum staff who spoke to a representative from Trump’s team said he did not request a tour of the museum and seemed instead to want only a photo-op for the nominee.
Swaine said that months are spent training the museum’s tour guides, and that the museum does not allow “un-vetted” presenters to act as guides.
He said that since news of the museum’s decision broke last week, museum staff members have received threats via phone calls and social media.
“The callers were threatening to come over and burn down the building and to shoot up the building,” he said. “They’ve lessened in frequency this week, but they’re still coming in.”
Swaine said callers have used foul language and racial epithets, and he said museum employees are now recording the calls. But he also noted that he is appreciative of support that has come via social media and in calls from across the nation.
Kirk Bell, the communications director for Trump’s North Carolina campaign, wrote in an email that the campaign “is not commenting on this matter.”
He didnt understand the code?

I farted into my speakerphone. Lets see what comes out.
the stuff about Trump being a smart businessman with skills is overblown. number one factor in his success has been a big inheritance and a rich daddy. he'd never have gotten this far without Fred Trump.

How Did This Trump Supporter Learn That Clinton Has Dementia?: ‘I’ve Been Watching a Lot of Fox News’
http://www.mediaite.com/online/how-d...t-of-fox-news/
http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/...-white-voters/Four years ago, Romney beat President Obama among white voters by 17 percentage points, according to pre-election polls. That was the largest winning margin among white voters for any losing presidential candidate since at least 1948. Of course, even if Trump did just as well as Romney did, it would help him less, given that the 2016 electorate will probably be more diverse that 2012’s. And to win — even if the electorate remained as white as it was four years ago — Trump would need a margin of 22 percentage points or more among white voters.
But Trump isn’t even doing as well as Romney. Trump is winning white voters by just 13 percentage points, according to an average of the last five live-interviewer national surveys.1 He doesn’t reach the magic 22 percentage point margin in a single one of these polls.
In fact, Trump would be losing by a larger margin, but third-party candidates are getting support from younger and minority voters, so that Clinton is slightly underperforming Obama among these groups. But the magnitude of Clinton’s struggles with young and nonwhite voters isn’t anywhere big enough to cancel out Trump’s relatively poor showing among white voters.
