    In New Hampshire, the night after the Iowa caucuses, it was hard not to feel the "Marco-mentum." Florida Sen. Marco Rubio stood on a stage in Exeter surrounded by more than 700 rowdy supporters who filled the picturesque town hall to the brink. Rubio delivered the same stump speech he's been sticking to for months.

    Donald Trump's campaign manager is saying that Donald trump is not afraid of losing the caucus because there is never a fair debate and he will still run and answer all the questions people throw at him.

    I think that Trump is pulling out of the debate, not because he's intimidated, but I think it may be a way of seeing how many supporters he has. At the end of the article, it says that there is expected to be substantially less viewers. I'm thinking that this is Trump's way of seeing how many suporters he has now, and see how hard he has to work in the future to get more suporters.

    David Bowie was an icon, not only to people but to the genre of pop itself. "Bowie died two days after the release of 'Blackstar', his 29th album, which had been timed to coincide with his birthday. The singer had kept a low profile in recent years after reportedly suffering a heart attack in the 2000s, and it had not been widely known that he was struggling with cancer."

    This makes me so sad hearing that one of the famous musicians passes away from cancer. He was such a good singer and actor! You would think that doctors would have found a cure for cancer by now because now my great aunt is going though it. RIP David Bowie!!

    The ethical issues and problems that a mass roundup of illegal immigrants would create chaos in America. I agree with Trump and the other candidates that it is a problem, but the solution is not to launch a nation wide man hunt and deport people to random places in Mexico.

    They tried this a long time ago and it was considered a shameful chapter in american history because they were mean to people when they did it didn't even try to make it a little easy on them.

    I think that a big change is coming in the United States. If Trump becomes president, there will no longer be peace in the place we call home. There will be so many people refusing to do what he says he wants to do. I personally feel that he doesn't have the right to say whether or not they are here. If it didn't work before, it won't work now. And him just trying it will cause conflict everywhere.

    That word is Trump. An eponymous term derived from the name of a billionaire businessman, it's a five-letter verb that has evolved from its dictionary definition into a word with an entirely new meaning: Trump (verb): To ridicule or demean another person as a way of expressing one's superiority; to express the opinion that I'm better than you, I'm smarter than you, I'm richer than you and I'M MORE AMERICAN THAN YOU.

    Andrew P. Kelly is a resident scholar and the director of the Center on Higher Education Reform at the American Enterprise Institute. "Free public college" is a great political talking point, but it is flawed policy. First, free college isn't free, it simply shifts costs from students to taxpayers and caps tuition at zero.

    I think that this situation was handled terribly by Trump and shows that he is not the man that should be the President of the United States. It shows that he is not someone who knows how to handle a situation correctly and properly.

    I feel that if Obama really had all these emotions and is wanting these "shooting sprees" in America to stop, there needs to be something done about it. I understand that we have the right to bare arms, and not everyone will follow the laws made to make things more safe, but implimenting things in schools like metal detectors, or by having it required that parents kept guns locked up would help more with this situation.
  • bandgirl2016 on 11 Jan 16
     
    I agree with you but its like if he feels or thinks about these shooting you would think that he would want it to and that he needs to do something about it instead of not doing anything.
