米大統領選、支持率で元医師カーソン氏首位 トランプ氏転落 | Reuters
ニューヨーク・タイムズとＣＢＳニュースが２１━２５日、共和党の予備選有権者、５７５人を対象に調査した。カーソン氏の支持率が２６％、トランプ氏は２２％の支持を集めた。
トランプ氏支持者の方が、固い決意を抱くことも分かった。トランプ氏支持者の５５％が、固く決心したと回答。カーソン氏支持者の８割は、最終的に同氏に投票するかを話すのは時期尚早と答えた。
カーソン、トランプ両氏は、他候補に大きく差をつけた。
３位はマルコ・ルビオ上院議員（支持率８％）、４位にジェブ・ブッシュ元フロリダ州知事と、米コンピューター大手、ヒューレット・パッカード（ＨＰ）(HPQ.N)の元最高経営責任者（ＣＥＯ）、カーリー・フィオリーナ氏（いずれも７％）が続く。
ランド・ポール、テッド・クルーズ両上院議員や、ジョン・ケーシック・オハイオ州知事、マイク・ハッカビー元アーカンソー州知事はいずれも４％の支持を集めた。
来年１１月に行われるアメリカ大統領選挙で、ニューヨーク・タイムズとＣＢＳテレビが共同で行った世論調査の結果が２７日発表されました。
それによりますと、政権奪還を目指す野党・共和党内では、元神経外科医で、保守派のベン・カーソン氏が２６％で、主要なメディアの調査では初めて支持率でトップとなり、一方で、ことし７月以降、支持率のトップを維持してきた不動産王のドナルド・トランプ氏は２２％と２位に転落しました。
トランプ氏は、来年２月に候補者選びの最初の戦いが行われる中西部アイオワ州で、先週行われた世論調査でも首位から転落しており、トランプ氏の勢いにかげりが出ているとも受け止められています。
一方で、当初、有力視されていたルビオ上院議員は８％、ジェブ・ブッシュ元フロリダ州知事は７％と、依然として支持率は低迷しています。
また、調査ではおよそ７割の有権者が、候補者を決めるには早すぎるとも回答しており、１５人が立候補を表明する共和党の候補者選びは今後も混戦が予想されます。

World would be a better place with Saddam, Gaddafi still in power – Trump — RT USA
If Middle East strongmen Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi were still in this world, it would have been a better place, because what came instead is much worse, US presidential candidate Donald Trump said.
Asked by CNN's Jake Tapper on his State of the Union show whether the world would have been better off with Hussein and Gaddafi still ruling in Iraq and Syria, Trump said “100 percent.”
"I mean, look at Libya. Look at Iraq. Iraq used to be no terrorists. [Hussein] would kill the terrorists immediately, which is like now it's the Harvard of terrorism," Trump said.
"I'm not saying he was a nice guy, he was a horrible guy, but it was a lot better than it is right now. Right now, Iraq is a training ground for terrorists. Right now Libya, nobody even knows Libya, frankly there is no Iraq and there is no Libya. It's all broken up. They have no control. Nobody knows what's going on."
Both Hussein and Gaddafi were dictatorial leaders who ruled with a strong hand. Hussein was ousted by a US-led coalition that acted with no mandate on a pretext that he had a clandestine program of weapons of mass destruction. The accusation was later proven to be false. He was tried and executed by the post-invasion authorities.
Gaddafi was ousted by a violent uprising propped by a NATO bombing campaign, which hijacked a UN resolution demanding protection of civilians from bombings by Gaddafi forces. NATO instead devastated the Libyan army, allowing the rebels to catch and summarily execute Gaddafi.
Both Hussein and Gaddafi committed atrocities against their own people, but now the situation with human rights in Iraq and Libya is “worse than ever,” Trump told CNN.
"People are getting their heads chopped off, they're being drowned. Right now, they are far worse than they were, ever, under Saddam Hussein or Gaddafi," he said.
“Libya is a disaster. Iraq is a disaster. Syria is. The whole Middle East. And it all blew up around [former Secretary of State] Hillary Clinton and [President] Barack Obama.”
Trump, who has been the frontrunner for the Republican nomination for next year’s presidential election, has been losing ground to his rival Ben Carson, who surged past Trump in the early-voting state of Iowa. The latest opinion poll, published Friday by Bloomberg/Des Moines Register, gives 28 percent support for Carson as opposed to 19 percent for Trump for the state’s Republican caucus.
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who committed UK’s military support to then-President George W Bush to invade Iraq in 2003, has acknowledged that the current Middle East bloodshed may stem from that decision. He also said that in Iraq, Libya and Syria the West tried different approaches to regime change, and in none of these countries did turn out well.
