Establishment economists polled by the Wall Street Journal say that 2016 presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump would be the worst leaders for the United States economy. The rest of the field ostensibly would be just “meh,” according to these economists.
The newspaper released the findings this week that found the one presidential candidate with the most potential to improve the U.S. economy is, surprisingly, Ohio Governor John Kasich. Florida Senator Marco Rubio is somewhere in the middle. Economists have given the thumbs down to Texas Senator Ted Cruz.
Former Secretary of State, and likely next president, Hillary Clinton wouldn’t bring any change to the economy, say economists.

If this were 2012, it would be interesting to see how economists would view Ron Paul.

Hey, Andy the votes have not been counted yet. Hillary Rotten Clinton may not hurt the economy of big business, but she will trash the lower middle class and middle class economy for sure. Her pledge to tax the rich crap, will just increase the price of goods and services we all pay. The business owner who sees his tax bill go up, will just pass the cost along to his customers. IDIOTS running for president is all we have, today.
