Question:
I actually do not mind Hillary I think she did a decent job running the country once before.
However I am not overly impressed with any of our choices, this time out. It is rather early in the race , and who knows maybe Ross Perot will surface again, if not there is always Mario.

As to the wage stats, we've been through that argument before. You can twist the numbers any way you want, without knowing where the statistics came from they are meaningless. However, Hard data suggests that there are reasons other than the sex of the worker for the apparent wage disparity.
Eliminate the Electoral College? Great. Doing that would enable a candidate to campaign in CA, FLA, TX, and NY and ignore the rest of the country. The electoral college was set up in part to ensure that smaller states had a voice, and that is still needed.
This is one of my favorites...we send our sons and daughters to DIE for democracy in some foriegn country in some desert far away...but it is NOT good enough for the good old...USA! Bah humbug! Move to a big state if you have a problem...! Whine whine whine.... or democracy!


Answer:
Sara, We don't have a Democracy.
We have a representative republic.
I'd prefer to keep it that way.

This ill-tempered, violent, foul mouthed, hateful and abusive woman wants to be your president and have total control as commander-in-chief of a military that her party so openly and proudly admit they detest. I can see someone like this gaining the respect of other nations, and especially from their leaders, who refuse to do as she tells them ...or else. No thanks, my country deserves a better leader, not a dominatrix!
You can tell a lot about someone's character by observing how they treat those around them that have no power or leverage over them.

So far in this pathetically early start to the campaign season, I have heard nothing but sound bites and bumper sticker politics from any of the candidates. No concrete solutions from anyone. Much about how wrong everything is, but no solutions.

In fact, the very same things could be said of almost every one of the
people who have or will run for national office. So what's new?
As for the foul language, she's probably not the expert that Dick Cheney
or a George W Bush is. Big whoop, she can curse like a man, so what?


Answer:
I am going to question some of these statements. I do not believe that a police officer, especially someone in the secert service would ever comment on what was said while they were protecting a person. Any SS officer who did repeat something said would lose his job and would not be able to find any work in law enforcement. SS kept their mouths shut and their eyes open for danger, no one but a fool would risk losing such a job by talking to the media or reporting a private converstion.
