I find it fitting that there are 440 pages of crap regarding the 2016 presidential election

There's really nothing interesting about this election. It's arguably the absolute worst candidate in U.S. history taking on arguably one of the least trustworthy and least deserving candidates in U.S. history.

The Los Angeles Times/USC Dornsife national tracking poll of the presidential campaign picked up a sharp uptick in African-American support for Republican nominee Donald J. Trump, which it now pegs at 14.6 percent.

When the “Daybreak” poll began July 10,Trump‘s support among black voters was 4.6 percent and he fluctuated between 5.4 percent Aug. 1 and 2.5 percent Aug. 11.

You can absolutely make an argument that one candidate or the other sucks for various reasons, but to argue that it isn't interesting is disingenuous.

It's not interesting. It's disgusting that in a country of over 300 million people, these two are the "best" we can choose from.

Four years ago, my wife and I realized that our son would able to vote for the first time in the 2016 Presidential election (he turns 18 in late October).

Today, we're disgusted that this is what he's faced with.

So, no. It's not at all interesting.

Polls are the only reliable measurement we have.

What makes you think they won't be reliable this election?

Polls are NOT reliable. That's the point. How can they be reliable when they show opposite things? (Clinton and Trump can't both win some of the close States, yet different polls show different leaders.) How many times during the primaries did polls taken just a few days before the voting differ greatly (10+%) from the results? I don't have the numbers, but it sure seemed like an awful lot. Never trusted polls, never will. Maybe work taught me how easy it is to manipulate numbers and have people believe them.

Pew Poll, Clinton up 4. LA Times has Clinton up 1. Polls are tightening. Trump is getting more and more scripted. Lots of cash on the sideline. Hillary's tiring out throwing everything she has at Trump. It's a Trump Rope-a-dope!!!
