Thomas Friedman of the NYT points out the three aces held by Donald Trump in the U.S. election campaign of 2016. He could move to the centre in a campaign against Hillary Clinton and voters could give him a pass saying he only meant to start a conversation on immigration with his comment on the wall, that his comments on Muslims read carefully only means he would tighten controls on some countries, that he was acting in the way he said in his book "The Art of the Deal." A terrorist attack could change the atmosphere in the election and benefit Trump. And he could set a barrage of ads against Hillary bringing anti-Hillary Republicans back to his side after the divisions in a Republican convention. On the opposite side of this is Trump's penchant for making wild statements that could lead to a break with his support base, especially women who are shifting away according to some recent polls in mid March. Another vulnerability says Friedman is the rough way in which minorities are treated at Trump rallies, which could backfire with a serious incident resulting in hugely negative media coverage.

David Axelrod on the theory of point and counterpoint in presidential elections, where qualities opposite of the incumbent get the upper hand- Bush and Obama, Obama and Trump or Cruz
01/25/2016
Democratic party strategist Axelrod writes about Trump (and Cruz), both having a disdain of conventional politicians and calling it like it is. Axelrod says he should have known. He writes about his theory from a memo in 2006 for president Obama's prospects- of point and counter point in presidential politics where a newcomer with opposite qualities than the incumbent can gain popularity, especially when the electorate is growing weary of the outgoing president and conditions change. The lame duck year for the outgoing president only reinforces his ineffectiveness.

Suffering From Trumphobia? Get Over It
Wall Street Journal 03/10/2016
New York Times 03/08/2016
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
