BOSTON – Donald Trump still dominates the Republican presidential primary polls in New Hampshire, Iowa and South Carolina, but when it comes to the money race he trails badly in all three.
Campaign donations won't buy votes, but they can provide a measure of real support that's less ephemeral than polling results. If someone puts their money down on a candidate, they're more likely to vote for that person in the only polling that counts.
MADRID (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Monday that a proposed international presence at the Jerusalem holy site at the center of escalating Israeli, Palestinian tension and violence is not needed.
Instead, he said what is needed is clarity over pledges by Israel to maintain the status quo at the hilltop compound revered by Jews as the Temple Mount and home to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Islam's third-holiest shrine and a key national symbol for the Palestinians.
