88. Anyone running for public office in this day of television should watch him or herself on video

Mon Oct 7, 2013, 01:48 AM

Oct 2013

for hours and hours and hours and work on presentation. It makes a huge difference.

Obama is the master of it. Romney was loser. McCain was worse.

Hillary was very well qualified for the presidency in 2008 if you just looked at her resume. She did not get the nomination because of her presentation and her excessive affiliations with the 1% and corporate America.

People did not realize that Obama had sold out to the banks.

I like Obama and have worked hard to get him elected and re-elected, but I really want to see a candidate in our party who is not a sell-out and who, at the same time, has charisma. I don't think Hillary is that candidate.

If Hillary had sufficient charisma, she would have been elected in 2008. I hope I'm wrong because it looks like she has the Democratic machine behind her, but I think she is the wrong choice and would be a big mistake.
