... come even close to suggesting that there should be no Democratic primary. I have also not seen a single Hillary supporter refer to her as "inevitable, the 'chosen one', the 'anointed one', or this 'being her turn'."

And yet DU is replete with posters decrying these notions - even though they haven't been expressed by anyone here.

Would you happen to have a link to Hillary expressing "concerns about whether she wants to 'put the time into' being president" if she wins?

I've never heard that one - and it would be a rather remarkable statement if it was actually made. Despite the present incompetence of the MSM, I feel certain that if Hillary stated that she wasn't sure that she wanted to invest her time into being president if elected, that would have been headline news for weeks.

So if you can provide a link to that statement, I would be much obliged. And if no such statement was made, you might want to rethink attributing it to her.
