General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: I'd prefer to see Elizabeth Warren as our next president. But if Hillary Clinton [View all]Cal33
(7,018 posts)as a Romney, Palin or Bachmann?? If so, I doubt it. I think, with her,
there will be more of the same as we are having right now. We are
heading towards self-destruct, yes, but more slowly. This, in my
opinion, will buy us a little more time until a left-of-center Democratic
president comes along after her. It's not much, but it is something.
Of course, it might also be too late. But, at least there is some chance
of having a real Democrat for president in the future. Elect a Right-Wing
nutjob for president, and we might never again have another election --
or, at best, a token election for show only -- the way it was in the USSR
under Stalin. All we need to do is look at the vote-fraud being practiced
in the red states right now: gerrymandering, voter suppression, phony
electronic voting machines ... etc ... Too many Democrats don't seem to
mind it too much. We need a left-of-center president to push the people
to put a stop to this BS. Right-of-center presidents won't.
