Obama Trump Poll

 There has been a lot of speculation out there about Donald Trump's viability in the Presidential race. On the one hand, he's very well-known and a lot of people already have an opinion about him. However, his ego may not let him enter into a race that he would lose.

That's where this new poll from Rasmussen comes into play. Trump has been making waves for about a month now, plus has high name recognition. When placed against Obama in a one-to-one match, the results are...interesting.

Obama (D): 49%
Trump (R): 34%

Notice that Obama doesn't crack the 50% barrier, which is very important for an incumbent. However, he has a 15% lead on Trump. Usually having an opponent below 40% while not surpassing 50% is a sign that the opponent is not well-known. And we know that this is not the case for Donald Trump.
