It's kinda remarkable the degree to which I agree all the way down the line.
Except for one thing. The nexus of it all: Hillary Clinton. Who Hillary Clinton is.

Perhaps if Hillary Clinton was 20 yrs younger I could believe in some unheard unsung chord of resilience, of the "good faith" that would allow for a reconsideration, a changing of ways that you suggest is possible downthread.
But people my age are set in their ways by our history and we aren't that flexible anymore. HRC even more than most, just by the nature of her "job".
She's in it for the money, Scootaloo, and she doesn't care about the morality of it.
Her political history is the proof.

She's the Red Queen and the USA is looking toward an election pitting the Red Queen vs the Jabberwock, and considering the concentration of wealth and military power that the US controls, look out world. Because here it comes.

Here it comes.

Fuck that. This isn't 2008, and Bernie isn't another establishment Party insider like BO and HRC. GoneFishin Apr 2016 #12

Hey, easy MrChuck Apr 2016 #29

No YOU go easy on discussing Sanders supporters. You want to discuss them take it elsewhere. Autumn Apr 2016 #30

That's not nice. MrChuck Apr 2016 #31

Autumn, your own post to GD: P got "interpreted" to hell and gone. delrem Apr 2016 #33

According to Bernie, it's not about Bernie, so it really cannot be just about his candidacy. HereSince1628 Apr 2016 #37
