Hillary is just another Republican lite. If Hillary would like the next occupant in the White House to be a Republican then she should run but if she does run and wins there will still be a Republican in the White House on Jan 20 2017 (But she cannot win and Bill should be able to pick this out of the political winds)

Sanders/Warren or
Warren/Sanders
