...pass because my option wasn't there. It is their right to run if they want to run.

Presently, Hillary is not running, in my opinion.

Also, in my opinion, Bernie will be running as an independent.

Both may change their minds... that is also their right. Most importantly, there will be other names and choices. Presently, I can say I will be voting for the Democrat.

It does have a mechanism for dealing with this situation, impeachment. hughee99 Sep 2017 #38
how would impeachment cover it when the VP, speaker, etc. are all in on the crime? nt ecstatic Sep 2017 #40
Can't any of them be impeached? Also, we're quite a ways away from showing everyone in the line of hughee99 Sep 2017 #41
