I am seriously starting to sweat about the momentum Trump has. How hard is it to get a visa for a country in Western Europe or New Zealand?

if he gets the nomination do you reckon its more likely we could see an independent run against him? on a right wing evangelical type thing
 
I would not necessarily want Sanders either. He's scary in another way. I'd take him over all the Reublicans save for Kasich but he invited a lot of problems to the US. This is the worst election I'll be voting in.

Former NYC mayor Bloomberg has said he would run if Trump and Sanders were to become their respective party candidates. I feel like he could pull a lot of votes from both parties.

interesting, is that cos if clintno gets the nomination he doesnt think he will stand a chance or is it cos he strongly disagrees with sanders and trump?

I don't think he and Clinton are close, but she is his preferred candidate. It does not seem like Bloomberg favors Sanders because Sanders is a bit too left wing.

He's a really pragmatic guy and has been conducting polling for close to a decade to determine his chances. If Trump and Sanders got the R and D nominations, there would be a major vacuum that he could fill. Also, if none of the candidates received a majority in the electoral college, the vote would go to the House and he very well could be the favored candidate out of those three
 
Trump and Sanders personify the skepticism that exists regarding how politics in the US is done. Both are being touted as 'breath of fresh air' candidates by their respective supporters. For those in the middle ground, they represent danger. Personally I see Sanders as a better alternative to Clinton. She could set back the cause of women in US politics for a generation, just like Thatcher did over here.

I don't see either Trump or Sanders getting the nomination or the presidency. Ultimately, the US don't like change from the status quo.

This is very important to me because there are already a lot of people in this country that do not believe women should be in positions of power. Clinton is a terrible representation of women. Wish Elizabeth Warren would have ran.

Absolutely. She's tarnished goods. Warren would get my (hypothetical-as-don't-live-in-the-US) vote.
