James K Polk is one of the historical figures that is really hard to judge by modern standards.
He was a forceful man with strongly held beliefs. He was the last in the line of "Jacksonian Presidents" with all of the baggage that came along with that.
Ultimately, he was a strong war time President. His single term in office led to the short lived Presidency of Zachary Taylor, who was significantly less informed and forceful than Polk. After Polk, the issue of slavery really came to the forefront. Polk was either responsible for delaying the prominence of this issue or just got lucky. It is likely that history would look much differently if Polk had a second term and continued his aggressive posture towards America's future.
I'd say he was a good President, for his time, who strongly acted on the economy and in regards to Mexico but whose record looks abysmal by modern standards and values.
Answer:
Last year the polls kept showing that Hilary was beating Trump and she was going to win for sure. The same thing is happening this year. The polls they show on TV aren't always accurate. Plus all the Trump supporters will be voting him again. Also any Hilary voters that realized Trump wasn't half bad might be switching to him. Recently celeberties have been coming out as Trump supporters and as we all know celebs tend to have an impact on peoples decisions. So with that in mind that adds on more people who could be voting for Trump. CNN along with other news media have heavily against Trump so the polls they are showing on TV can be very biased. At this moment it is very possible for Trump to win. We just have to wait for the final say.

Explanation: globalization of European society started already in the renaissance and continued later on as well. I am excluding Russia from this development because Russia started (just in a very limited way) participating in European development at the beginning of the 18th century.
