49. The polls back that up

Jan 2015

Only 10% say "don't know enough to say" when it comes to Hillary Clinton, the numbers are much higher when it comes to candidates other than Clinton or Biden who most of America easily knows who they are.

Hopefully we will have a stronger candidate than Hillary in 2016 Martin Eden Jan 2015 #22

Just like 2006. How'd that turn out again? (nt) jeff47 Jan 2015 #16

I think there's a major discrepancy here ... Martin Eden Jan 2015 #18

Most Americans are clueless. She leads because of name recognition. n/t Dawgs Jan 2015 #20

Yep. Martin Eden Jan 2015 #24

Which is why Jeb leads... um, but he doesn't. wyldwolf Jan 2015 #31

Not sure what you're getting at, but half of America probably doesn't know Jeb is W's brother. n/t Dawgs Jan 2015 #38

I'm fairly certain half the country knows the name 'Bush.' wyldwolf Jan 2015 #39

I didn't say that, and knowing the name Bush does not mean they know Jeb. Dawgs Jan 2015 #41

So Clinton leads because of name recognition, but Bush doesn't? wyldwolf Jan 2015 #43

They don't know Jeb Bush. They know George Bush. Dawgs Jan 2015 #46

so your point is Hillary is leading because she is well known. Last name has nothing to do with it. wyldwolf Jan 2015 #47
