Here’s Everything you need to know before watching the 3rd Republican Debate on CNBC.
Let’s really start with the “non-politician” front runners, Donald Trump and neurosurgeon Ben Carson, both are polling above 20% in National polls and Iowa. They are the big targets, but to call the debate a success, they simply need to avoid huge mistakes. Watch Trump to hear lots of insults and little policy. Watch Carson to stay above the fray and talk slowly.
Next is another outsider, Former CEO Carly Fiorina, who skyrocketed to 2nd in polls after the last debate. she’s since collapsed back down to single digits. She needs a strong performance in order to recover. Watch Carly for dramatic one-liners.

Ok, the floridians. Former Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio. Rubio is 3rd in national polls and is increasingly seen as the establishments best hope. To see another rise in the polls, he needs the other establishment guy Jeb Bush, to have a bad night. Jeb has been hovering below 10% for months now. Without a good performance tonight, the big donors will surely leave him.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz will stare directly into the camera. You’ve been warned.
Now the “margin of error” candidates.
Gov. John Kasich and Gov. Chris Christie poll around 2%. Watch both of them try to sell their “pragmatic Republicanism”. Christie will just do it more aggressively.
Gov. Mike Huckabee barely made it onto the stage with poor polling. Expect him to bible thump.
Sen. Rand Paul also barely made it on stage. It’s do or die for him. Standing ovations or drop out.
Rick Santorum, George Pataki, Bobber Jindew, and Lindsey Graham will bore us at the undercard debate. Just mute the TV and drink a cocktail while playing my republican debate drinking game.

![Trent Affair- What If The South Won British Support?
A brief explanation of the Trent Affair, a relatively unknown civil war moment in 1861 during the American Civil War. What if the south had won British support during the Civil War?

Two Confederate diplomats, James Mason and John Slidell, were confiscated from the RMS Trent on their way to Europe seeking diplomatic recognition from Great Britain and France. The culmination of this almost brought Great Britain and France into the conflict. Could the South have won the civil war (achieved mediation)? Though it could be argued that the aftermath of the Trent was merely posturing on the part of the European powers, it isn’t clear what might have occurred had President Lincoln decided against capitulation. The Trent Affair is a seldom explained Civil War story, and this is why I decided to dramatize the tale. Enjoy!

I promised to include a more clear understanding of the maritime law situation, so here it goes... Great Britain and France chose to be ‘neutral’ during the conflict between the Union and the Confederacy, but this begs the question: how can one be ‘neutral’ to the South without simultaneously acknowledging their existence? The answer is, you can’t. By becoming ‘neutral’, G.B. and France recognized the Confederacy as a ‘belligerent’ state. In doing so, this placed the North’s blockade in a legal grey area.
This is why the South wanted diplomatic recognition from the European powers. If they could hold out long enough against the Union, perhaps Europe might intervene and mediate the conflict. From my research, this was the intention of President Davis, and not an all out victory against the Northern states.
A more clear explanation can be found either by scowering the Trent Affair wikipedia article, or the Confederate Diplomacy article.

Furthermore, this article from history.com does a good synopsis of the story: http://www.history.com/topics/american-civil-war/trent-affair
If you really want to go deep in the rabbit hole on this topic, check out this dated but interesting write up entitled: “Great Britain and the American Civil War” http://www.gutenberg.org/files/13789/13789-h/13789-h.htm
Also, The Trent Affair: The Diplomatic Incident That Nearly Brought Great Britain into the American Civil War helped me during my research.
