My belief is that so many people don't like Hillary Clinton that her candidacy will give us a Trump presidency.

My concern too. The constant “scandaling” of the Clintons since they first appeared on the political scene has been relentless and unyielding. That combined with our total and absolute political divide means half of the population will hate the other half no matter who they might be. Just insert the political label and it’s off to the races.

With someone as well known as H Clinton the hate and distrust levels become exponential. Although I am still befuddled by the email gift she handed her opposition. How could she not be aware that any whiff of impropriety whatsoever would be pounced upon with full force by her detractors?.... I just don’t get it.


Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

The "problem" with the Clintons is that they lie and coverup mistakes. That is their history. Everyone makes mistakes - own them!!! Sheesh!!

Bernie said it succinctly: ARROGANCE!

Bernie is making a long game move:

Sanders begins helping down ticket candidates

Quote
The Vermont senator is beginning to expand his political network by helping upstart progressive congressional candidates and state legislators, lending his fundraising prowess and national fame to boost their bids.

And win or lose for the White House hopeful, Sanders's candidacy has given them a prominent national messenger and new energy they hope will trickle down-ballot in primaries and the general election.

"Bernie Sanders is really building this political revolution all the way up and down the ballot," said Matt Blizek, MoveOn.org's electoral field director. "His entire campaign, the mantra has been 'not me, us.'"

Guess I'll donate to him again.

Too little and too late. The arrogant Madame Clinton has been doing this from the start.
