5. I think the Dems will win against whomever the GOP candidate is - my only fear

is a third party candidate that splits the vote and would more than likely give Trump a victory. I hope that is not the case but I would not be at all surprised if it were initiated by the GOP themselves understanding that is probably the only way they can win. That would be a tremendous tragedy for not only America but the world.

There are rumors of this taking shape under the umbrella term "No Label Party". Sadly there seems to be a pretty large group of people that could do a protest vote if their "favorite" candidate isn't the nominee. I hope that everyone or both sides remember the Trump/Hillary race. At that time I think a lot of the "pro-Bernie" people (of which I was one) didn't vote and I think it might have cost Hillary the race.

Under normal circumstances this would not happen but out elections are now controlled by a lot of dark and hidden money and I would not put it past the powers that be trying this strategy. I hope there are some roadblock erected in lieu of this possibility. ☮
