Is there possibility of Donald Trump clinching the post of the US President?

-



Donald Trump, an American business magnate announced his candidacy for the president United States of America in the 2016 elections on June, 2015. Prior to this time, there had been speculations that he might run for the seat of the president of the US.
Donald Trump is an American businessman aged 69. He is a wealthy and popular businessman, a TV personality and a politician. He is descended from a German immigrant, and has Scottish ancestry from the maternal side. He was born in New York. He was brought up in a wealthy home, and he even has a degree in Economics. He has investments in different sectors; a large chunk of his investments are in real estate. He is into entertainment, sports and a whole lot of other businesses.
Donald Trump has not really had it the easy way all the time; he has faced some challenges like every other human. There was a time in the 1980s and 1990s that he went bankrupt and had to sell some investments and properties. Nevertheless, he bounced back from his challenges and today, his net worth is more than 3 billion dollars.
Prior to the time he declared interest to run for the seat of the president, there had been speculations that Donald Trump would contest for the seat of the president. A poll had been conducted; Donald Trump was voted as one of the ten people Americans adore. Donald Trump’s popularity is an undeniable fact. However, since he declared his interest for the prized seat, he had come under criticism from all corners because of his stance on some delicate issues. These issues are about American’s immigration and foreign policy, people’s culture and religion. He had suggested that Muslims should be banned from entering the US, and he had made a suggestion about stricter measure being adopted to fight illegal immigration. Although his opinion has not made him lose out of the race for the presidential ticket of the Republican Party, all the same, the general opinion of his candidature is moving on to the bad side. His business associates and friends have criticized him, and some have even cut the link they had with him.
Even if the Republicans choose him over the other candidates in race for the presidential ticket, what will be his chance to win the US Presidential election? And what do most people think of him?
He might not likely win this race because the public opinion about his candidature is mostly negative. Though, the working class Americans and a bigger percentage of Republicans seem to be of the same view with him, most Americans and even non-Americans do not respect his views on these issues. He has often taken controversial stance on these issues which is somewhat not good for someone running for the world most powerful job.
He is rich and popular, but his unguarded statements will certainly ruin his bid, damage his reputation and make him waste his campaign money. His perseverance and entrepreneurial spirit is good for the country; it will move the country to another height. Nevertheless, a bad foreign policy of a nation can ruin a nation, because no nation can survive alone. This might impede the future growth of the great America. Vote Wisely!

Biography of Poet J. P. Clark is a Nigerian poet from the Ijaw tribe. He studied at the University of Ibadan; it is from Ibadan that he got to write a poem about Ibadan, and it is from here that he developed as a poet. Analysis of the Poem This is a poem about the city, Ibadan. This Ibadan is in South West, Nigeria. It is in the state of Oyo. It is an ancient city that had been in existence even before the coming of the British. As the city is old, the houses of the city are dirty and the roofs are rusted. This is also an unplanned city. The persona begins by describing Ibadan as running splash of rust: that is, Ibadan is filled with rust; rust here symbolizes old and ancient. The color of this rust is that of “gold” which the persona shows. The use of “scattered” shows disorderliness of houses in the city. Then, the seven hills are the seven hills that surround the city. “Like Broken China in the Sun” represents the disorderliness and the scattered plan of the city. ...

There is an argument about entrepreneurs and businessmen that has often elicited arguments among intellectuals, economists, politicians and even business men.
