May 2016

and I will have to hold my nose to vote for her should she become the nominee (but I will, indeed, vote for her, no question), and I also agree that she has a very hawkish record that I would not be happy about were I in the military. HOWEVER....just what does this gentleman think that Drumpf would do? Does he think Drumpf would be any better? Does he not realize that Drumpf would be even worse militarily and cause even greater danger to the military?
