There’s Only One Candidate People Actually Like – and It’s Not Trump or Clinton
The only one of the declared presidential candidates that Americans have positive feelings for overall isn’t a frontrunner and has never held public office before. According to a poll released Thursday by Public Policy Polling, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson is the sole presidential candidate whose favorability rating is higher than his or her unfavorability rating.

Trump, Clinton still in lead in Georgia, but leads are shrinking, poll shows
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump hold shrinking leads in their respective primaries here in surveying done Tuesday evening by Opinion Savvy. And they do have new company. Among Republicans, real-estate developer Trump has a 9 point lead over second place, but that is now held by retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson who has a 14 point jump on former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush. None of the others have two-digit support. On the Democratic side of the aisle, Clinton has twice the support of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is in second, with Vice President Joe Biden in third.

Ben Carson is showing how nice guys winWhile Jeb Bush feuds with Donald Trump and others kowtow to him, only one candidate is seriously gaining on him. Ben Carson is now tied with Trump in one Iowa poll and is close in others. His rise suggests that it’s possible to catch the populist wave roiling Republican politics and yet not be an obnoxious braggart. Ben Carson is a superior outsider to Donald Trump. He is more gentlemanly and more conservative, with a more compelling life story. He is a man of faith who, despite his manifest accomplishments, has a quiet dignity and winsome modesty about him. Ben Carson is a throwback, whereas Donald Trump is a boldfaced name straight out of our swinish celebrity culture.
