61. Stop that, posting facts when the campaign for 2016 has already begun.

I will not support Hillary, she voted for the war in Iraq. She boasted about being involved in a war crime, prompting Bishop Tutu to state that what she said was reprehensible. I was horrified. I met her once, she was different then. Or maybe she wasn't.

She attends religious meetings with members of the Family.

Rupert Murdoch gave her a party.

I hope we don't have to deal with a Hillary candidacy. Enough with the same old recycled candidates, safe for Wall St.

We need new candidates, real Progressive Dems. But frankly I don't much care about the presidency anymore. I will be focusing totally on Congress then it won't matter who is president. Congress is where the power is. Too bad we get distracted by the presidential races.
