I don't understand how Hillary's desire to be President supercedes our Vice-President - who usually has the first shot at being the party's nominee. Biden has been an excellent VP and derserves a shot if he wants to run. She made a great SoS but I don't agree with many of her views and Biden is much more progressive than Hillary ever was. He is also knows how to "work" congress by schmoozing them but can also get in and fight like Hell when necessary. And me too, tired of dynasties.
