Here's the sentence without the glitch:
That's it?? BTW, the contraction I just typed for "that's it" won't show up as typed because of the KNOWN glitch that has been published here for many months." LOL @ your "sic" as if that has some deep meaning to you about your correctness.
I see the problem, though. You should focus on the word PRESIDENT. Neither Martin O'Malley NOR Bernie Sanders were in a CAMPAIGN for President. Neither one was in an ELECTION for President.
Martin O'Malley was not in a Presidential campaign. Martin O'Malley was not in a Presidential election.
Bernie Sanders was not in a Presidential campaign. Bernie Sanders was not in a Presidential election.
Hillary Clinton WAS in a Presidential campaign. Hillary Clinton WAS in a Presidential election.
Here is the definition for "President". Note it doesn't talk about also-rans, lol.
1.
(often initial capital letter) the highest executive officer of a modern republic, as the Chief Executive of the United States.
2.
an officer appointed or elected to preside over an organized body of persons.
3.
the chief officer of a college, university, society, corporation, etc.
4.
a person who presides
So looks like the 7 people on the jury got it just fine
, too...
