By the way, I don't consider myself to be a socialist, but I most likely would not vote for Hillary. The Republicans would have to nominate Hitler before I would vote for Hillary. I don't think she could win. I think Republicans could turn her own and Bill's records against her to the extent that it would split or disillusion the Democratic Party. She is not a good choice for 2016.

The same is true for Jeb Bush. He enabled GWB to become president with his purging of the voter rolls and tricks. He will be called to task for every wrong that GWB did.

Jeb Bush and Hillary should retire into history. It would be best for the country and best for them.

Bill Clinton was loved when he was president. But if you start looking into his performance from the advantage of hindsight, there is much to criticize. Hillary would suffer from that along with her own problems. $2000 for one speech on Wall Street. That's about 13 years' income at the federal minimum wage. That would turn a lot of people off.
