The 2016 United States elections will be held on Tuesday, November 8, 2016. During this presidential election year, the President of the United States and Vice President will be elected. In addition, elections will be held for all 435 voting-member seats in the United States House of Representatives (as well as all 6 non-voting delegate seats) and 34 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate. Twelve state governorships, two territorial governorships, and numerous other state and local elections will also be contested.
The United States presidential election of 2016 will be the 58th quadrennial U.S. presidential election. The current electoral vote distribution was determined by the 2010 census. Presidential electors who will elect the President and Vice President of the United States will be chosen; a simple majority (270) of the 538 electoral votes are required to win the election. The incumbent president, Democrat Barack Obama, is ineligible to be elected to a third term due to term limits established by the Twenty-second Amendment to the United States Constitution. There are numerous potential candidates in the Republican Party, Democratic Party, and among third parties. Assuming Barack Obama serves out his full term, the winner of this election will become the 45th President of the United States.
Rafael Edward “Ted” Cruz (born December 22, 1970) is the junior United States Senator from Texas. Elected in 2012, he is the first Cuban American or Latino to hold the office of US Senator from Texas. Cruz is a member of the Republican Party. He served as Solicitor General of Texas from 2003 to May 2008, after being appointed by Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott. Between 1999 and 2003, Cruz served as the director of the Office of Policy Planning at the Federal Trade Commission, an Associate Deputy Attorney General at the United States Department of Justice, and as Domestic Policy Advisor to U.S. President George W. Bush on the 2000 Bush-Cheney campaign. Cruz was also an Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of Texas School of Law in Austin, where he taught U.S. Supreme Court litigation, from 2004 to 2009.
He was the first Hispanic Solicitor General in Texas, the youngest Solicitor General of Texas, and the longest-serving Solicitor General in Texas’ history. Cruz is one of three Latinos in the Senate; the others — also Americans of Cuban ancestry — are fellow Republican Marco Rubio of Florida and Democrat Bob Menendez of New Jersey.

The document discusses various forms of domestic terrorism in the United States, including political, ideological, and religiously-motivated terrorism. It provides examples of specific domestic terrorist groups from both the left wing (e.g. Antifa) and right wing (e.g. American Nazi Party). It also discusses terrorist attacks carried out by foreign nationalist groups on U.S. soil, such as the 9/11 attacks and Boston Marathon bombing. Finally, it outlines current efforts by the Department of Homeland Security to prevent future acts of domestic terrorism.
Donald Trump and the future of U.S. leadershipSusana Gallardo
The United States has never had a president like Donald Trump. He is a real
estate investor, golf course developer, casino owner, product brander and
television personality with no prior experience in government or in competing for
elective office. He ran for president on the Republican ticket, but he has no
enduring loyalties to either political party, although he has undeniably tied his
political fortunes to the Republican Party. In decided contrast with other recent
administrations, there is not a single Democrat in the Trump cabinet, and AfricanAmericans,
Asian-Americans, Latinos and women are all minimally represented.
Trump's strategy for winning in 2016 relied on segmenting the electorate and mobilizing his base through an aggressive media campaign spreading conspiracy theories and attacking opponents. This same strategy may help Republicans in 2018 by energizing core Trump supporters and portraying Democrats as out of touch. Ongoing attacks on the truth and legitimacy of fact-based reporting are part of an authoritarian playbook that could further undermine opposition if left unchecked.
I put together this presentation for my local Meetup to show attendees the marketing lessons I gleaned from this past 2016 presidential election.
The good, the bad, and the ugly.
This is NOT about politics. It's about how the two main candidates (Trump and Clinton) SOLD their vision.
Or how they didn't. Or how one did better than the other and consequently moved more people in the battleground states to win.
I won't tell you here - look at the presentation and tell me what you think.
Kagan our constitutional crisis is already here Neil Raden
The United States is facing its greatest constitutional crisis since the Civil War due to Donald Trump's refusal to accept defeat in 2020 and his efforts to ensure victory in 2024 by any means. Trump maintains strong support and is actively working with allies to pass laws giving state legislatures control over election results. This increases the chances of chaos and violence around future elections as each side claims victory. The Founders did not anticipate a demagogue with a cult-like hold over a national political party being able to undermine checks and balances. The country risks breaking down along partisan lines without an agreed-upon solution.

With such DAMAGING information such as this and the WELL-ESTABLISHED Relationship CONNECTIONS BETWEEN Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant with the White Supremacist/TERRORIST Law Firm of Baker Donelson Bearman Caldwell & Berkowitz, information such as this in seeking RESTITUTION for damages from the State of Mississippi on behalf of Blacks/Negroes/African-Americans/People-Of-Color is information WELL DESERVED!
As Community Activist Vogel Denise Newsome has mentioned in legal matters involving the Baker Donelson, that it is a WALKING LIABILITY and those with whom this WHITE Jewish/Zionist/Supremacist Law Firm ENSNARES in its WEB OF CONSPIRACIES and DECEPTION are DOOMED and LIABLE for their actions – i.e. CANNOT blame it on their Lawyers/Attorneys! In other words, any such decision rendered by Governor Phil Bryant GRANTING the State of Mississippi the “UNLAWFUL” TAKEOVER of the Jackson Public Schools SUBJECTS him to LIABILITY in his INDIVIDUAL (personal properties/assets, etc.) as well as OFFICIAL Capacities! - - - A HIGH PRICE TO PAY and a HUGE MISTAKE in THINKING that Baker Donelson’s JUDICIAL SYSTEM is going to PROTECT him!

The document provides information about the United States elections that will take place in 2016. It discusses that the presidential election and elections for all 435 House seats and 34 Senate seats will occur. It also notes that 12 state governorships and other state and local elections will be contested. The presidential candidates from the two main parties that are seen as most likely to win are Donald Trump for the Republicans and Hillary Clinton for the Democrats. Their backgrounds and potential priorities if elected are also summarized.
The document discusses political parties in the United States. It provides background on the two-party system and how it has evolved over time. While third parties have existed, the plurality voting system and other factors have generally maintained the dominance of the two major parties. The document outlines arguments for and against launching a third party presidential candidate. On one hand, third parties can influence issues and garner significant votes. However, it is very difficult to win due to the electoral system, and a third party could weaken the issue by splitting the base. The consultant briefing leaves the decision of whether to back a third party up to the head of a political organization.

The document provides an overview of the 2016 US presidential election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. It outlines their backgrounds, policy positions, and how supporters and opponents view each candidate. Clinton is an experienced politician and former Secretary of State, while Trump is a businessman and reality TV star who lacks political experience. They have different stances on issues like immigration, foreign trade, and national security. The document explores the factors that drive support for each candidate and also the criticisms of them.
The document discusses the US presidential election process in 2016, including that primaries take place from January to June to select each party's nominee, who will then face off in the November general election. It notes that all US citizens over 18, except those in prisons or territories, can vote. Additionally, it explains that the electoral college system means the winner is determined by receiving 270+ electoral votes, not the overall popular vote.
From a field of 16 Republicans, Donald has come out on top. And from a field of 5 Democrats, Hillary has risen to the front of the pack. Their presentation and public speaking styles, a stark contrast. Many of their political views, too. But the power of an engaging and accessible speech remains the same across both parties and both potential 2016 presidential candidates.

Role of Millennials and their Impact on Reputation ManagementMSL
This document discusses the role and impact of Millennials on reputation management. It notes that Millennials are the largest and most diverse generation, with significant spending power. They expect businesses to have a clear purpose and take stands on issues like climate change. The document advocates for reputation management strategies that focus on purpose, corporate citizenship, employer value proposition, and social openness. It argues businesses must align with causes Millennials care about to attract them as consumers, employees, and brand advocates. Micro initiatives that create measurable impact are more credible than broad promises. An authentic approach through conversations and shared experiences online is needed to effectively engage Millennials.

Recipes are the original viral content. Brands are seeking to understand how, where, why and when consumers seek out, consume and share recipes. Many brands target women ages 25-54 with recipe content, but to increase purchase, consumption and usage occasions, brands first need to understand how people interact with this content.
Food trends have until now been forecast across specific geographies. Now, trends increasingly sweep the globe.

MSLGROUP's Reputation Impact Indicator Study sheds light on the importance of corporate “mind space” – a measurement of how easily a person can relate to a company – in determining a brand or company’s reputation.
The study’s results demonstrate that “mind space” – meaning both how easily a person relates to a company and the nature of the connotations invoked - plays a different but equally important role in corporate reputation compared to people’s rational views about products, services, financial performance, corporate behavior and how those companies manage relationship with consumers.
Findings from our Reputation Impact Indicator study highlight key challenges facing global reputation managers today.

Data In. Data Out. Transforming Big Data into Smart IdeasMSL
Data is a growing priority for communications professionals. With investments by Fortune 1000 companies greater than $10million projected to grow from 35% to 75% by 2017, Big Data is increasingly the currency of today’s Information Age. ‘Data In. Data Out. Transforming Big Data into Smart Ideas,’ underlines the importance of both capturing the right data in the first place (input), as well as analyzing that data and reaching the right insights (output).
The publication features seven articles from MSLGROUP and SapientNitro experts, each taking a look at Big Data from a different perspective. Six inspiring data-driven creative initiatives are also featured, including examples from Netflix and McDonald’s.
With plans unveiled this month for the proposed European Digital Single Market, ‘Data In. Data Out.’ additionally features an overview of the project, current status, and implications for businesses that are considering or already implementing data activities.

This 15th edition of Directions Report by Salterbaxter MSLGROUP looks at the three dimensions contributing to the rise of science in corporate sustainability: science-based targets, scientific frameworks, and stakeholder engagement with science.
The report features views for and against from academics giving businesses the tools for science’s adoption, and business leaders applying these tools to their thinking and activities.
Is science going to save us all from ourselves (and from our constant theorising about sustainability)? Well, take a look inside. At the very least we think it’s hard to argue against the signs that science is growing its influence and looks set to transform the way we think about corporate sustainability.

Everyone’s talking about integrated reporting. But not everyone has realised that there’s a new divide opening up within the integrated reporting movement.
It seems clear to us that the integrated reporters who show, rather than tell (and use the lens of the ‘capitals’ to do so), are the only ones able to truly convince their stakeholders that their company is doing something different. We take a closer look at the reporters getting it right in Salterbaxter MSLGROUP's latest ‘Directions’ report, ‘Integrated reporting: measurement matters’.
The Digital and Social Media Revolution in Public AffairsMSL
Unlike political campaigns, which were early adopters, the public policy arena has been one of the last bastions to fully embrace digital tools and social networks.
To gauge the integration and perceived impact of digital tools and how constituents and interest groups interact with EU and U.S. policymakers, MSLGROUP surveyed a large, diverse and active group of corporations, trade associations, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), local public bodies and think tanks in and around Brussels and Washington, D.C. in 2015.
The study shows quite clearly that there are tremendous opportunities to expand and enhance the use of social and digital communications in policymaking. We hope this research will inform communication and advocacy strategies to strengthen dialogues between stakeholders and policymakers.
Have an agenda and practice answering anticipated questions. Use facts, illustrations, and simple language to credibly tell your story and flag key points. Do not repeat negative questions, over-answer, lose your cool, guess without facts, or say something you do not want reported.

SCOTUS Launches New Economy with Legalized Sports BettingMSL
In a 6-3 decision in the case Murphy vs. National Collegiate Athletic Association, SCOTUS ruled that because Congress exceeded its constitutional authority when it passed PAPSA. In essence, Congress tried to prohibit state legislatures from repealing their existing statues that outlawed sports betting. Under a line of Supreme Court precedent known as the anti-commandeering doctrine, federal efforts to coerce states into enforcing federal law are unconstitutional violations of the Tenth Amendment.
To say this is just the beginning would be cliché, but what SCOTUS has wrought with its decision will have lasting consequences that go far beyond sports betting.

The Second Technology Revolution: How the PR Business Needs To Change Once AgainMSL
The document discusses how the PR industry needs to change and adapt to a second technology revolution driven by emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual reality, and big data analytics. It argues that these technologies are augmenting influence by providing more data-based insights, amplifying emotional resonance through immersive experiences, and using artificial intelligence to automate and adapt interactions. This will disrupt traditional media and influence, requiring PR practitioners to develop new skills in data, technology, and storytelling to help clients navigate this changing landscape.
SDG Signals - SBTribe Research by Salterbaxter MSLMSL
It’s been two years since the launch of the SDGs and the UN’s recent progress report highlights that support is uneven and needs to accelerate. New data sources, including
social media, continue to be vital tools to measure, monitor and report progress.
SDG Signals uncovers new insights about SDG communications online and which areas, people and brands are cutting through. We explore the overall SDG online conversation, providing clear opportunities for differentiation, with initial comparisons from the Technology and Food & Beverage sectors. Future editions will put the spotlight on other specific sectors and issue areas.
A joint initiative conducted by MSL and SPARK Neuro gives PR pros true cause for excitement. What was once only subjective – how much people are engaged with content and their emotional experience with it – can now be directly quantified by reading brain activity and other neurological responses.

Jeff Sessions
Attorney General
Sessions was elected to the United States Senate in 1997. Before becoming the
Senator of Alabama, Sessions served as the Assistant United States Attorney
for the Southern District of Alabama (1975-1977). He was then nominated by
7. 5
President Reagan in 1981 and confirmed by the Senate to serve as the United States Attorney
for Alabama’s Southern District, a position he held for 12 years.
His judicial nomination in 1986 was killed by the Senate Judiciary Committee due to his
perceived “gross insensitivity” to racial issues. Sessions was then elected Alabama Attorney
General in 1995.
As a United States Senator, Sessions has focused his energies on maintaining a strong military,
upholding the rule of law, limiting the role of government, and providing tax relief to stimulate
economic growth and empowering Americans to keep more of their hard earned money.
Dubbed a “budget hawk” by the Alabama press, Sen. Sessions was selected for the 112th and
113th Congresses to serve as the Ranking Member on the Senate Budget Committee to
restrain the growth of federal spending and make permanent tax cuts that benefit American
families. As a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sessions is a leading
advocate of confirming federal judges who follow the law and do not legislate from the bench.
As a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Sessions is a strong advocate for
America’s military. Sessions also authored the Honoring Every Requirement of Exemplary
Service (HEROES) Act, which was signed into law in May 2005. This legislation increased the
payment received by the families of fallen combat soldiers from $12,000 to $100,000 and also
increased the maximum servicemen’s life insurance benefit from $250,000 to $400,000.
Sessions played a leading role in ensuring that the Medicare Prescription Drug law included a
rural health care component that reduced the disparity in Medicare payments. He also joined in
efforts to make funding more equal in the Ryan White CARE Act. He also authored the Paul
Coverdell National Forensic Sciences Improvement Law of 2000, which authorized badly
needed funds for state and local crime labs to reduce the backlog of ballistics, blood, and DNA
tests

Reince Priebus
White House Chief of Staff
Reince Priebus has served as Chairman of the Republican National
Committee since 2011. Previously, he served as RNC General Counsel from
2009 to 2011 and former Chairman of the Republican Party of Wisconsin
from 2007 to 2009. As one of the top Republican strategists in Wisconsin,
Priebus has a long professional relationship with Speaker Paul Ryan.
Priebus inherited a $23 million debt at the Republican National Committee, and began repairing
relationships with major Republican donors. Following President Barack Obama’s 2012 re-
election, Priebus convened the Growth and Opportunity Project to review the Republican Party’s
poor showing with young voters, women, and Hispanics. Priebus increased outreach to these
groups.
During the 2016 campaign, President-elect Trump referred to Priebus as “Mr. Switzerland” for
his studious neutrality during the Republican primary. Priebus engineered the drafting of a
loyalty pledge signed by every Republican presidential candidate, a move which ultimately
foreclosed a potential independent run by Trump and unified nearly every Republican candidate
behind the ultimate nominee.
After the Republican National Convention, Priebus told William J. Bennett for a profile in Politico
Magazine that ““The job of being chairman entails racking up victories or killing bad ideas that
no one will ever know about, herding cats, taking complaints, and keeping your head down and
doing the fundamentals of the ground game and fundraising. But I love it and it’s what I’ve done
for most of my life.”
Priebus began his career as a lawyer with Michael Best & Friedrich LLP in Wisconsin, where he
became partner in 2006. He is married to Sally Priebus and has two children.

Accountability Institute.
Bannon has been identified as a leader in the “alt-right” movement, and has described Breitbart
News as “the platform of the alt-right.” Former Breitbart employees, including former Editor-at-
Large Ben Shapiro, have described Bannon’s role with the alt-right as follows: “Breitbart has
become the alt-right go-to website… pushing white ethno-nationalism as a legitimate response
to political correctness, and the comment section turning into a cesspool for white supremacist
mememakers.” Shapiro further describes Bannon as “a vindictive, nasty figure, infamous for
verbally abusing supposed friends and threatening enemies.”
Bannon previously worked at Goldman Sachs. He was involved in the financing and production
of several films. He is also a former officer of the U.S. Navy. Bannon joined the Trump
10. 2
campaign in August 2016 as the chief executive officer. Bannon has been described as having
a “desire to destroy the left,” as well as reform the conservative base.
