I thought I'd start a thread where we could talk about the upcoming presidential campaign.  Lets attempt to keep it civil and maybe back up our arguments with clear reasons?  ha, who am I kidding!

Honestly, with all her baggage, anyone that votes for her is a moron. She's a proven liar. Over and over and over. She broke the law by using her own email server. She should be in jail, not running for president.

By law, she is supposed to use an email account that is serviced by the government, i.e. Hillary.Clinton@whitehouse.gov.

This is so all email can be tracked, confidential documents are protected, and transparency is insured.

She set up her own server and did not use the government email account.  Her emails pertaining to Benghazi and MANY others have been deleted. 

This is tantamount to treason to me...

I know it would be cool to have a woman president but you think they could find someone other the the fake native American and Hillary.

 She was also so flipped about the Benghazi incident at the hearing. Her saying what difference does it make now?  Americans died that day.

And doesn't anyone care that she quit being Secretary of State at the height of a scandal for "health reasons" but is now supposed to be healthy enough to run for president?

I don't like her and have never been able to really put a finger on it.

So, who should be the first woman president? If we had to pick on today who would you choose and why?

 I may vote as a Democrat at the next primary just so I can vote against her.

Condi Rice might make a good Pres. She has the background in National security & I don't remember her having any scandal.

 You know this is total horrible gossip, but she has never once talked about her personal relationships that I have seen.  Maybe I'm totally off-base.    I don't' care if she's straight, gay or whatever, but I find it bizarre that such a public figure would hide who she is with.

I could get behind Condi Rice. The GOP doesn't like her pro-choice stance, but those type of issues don't decide elections for me.

 It just makes me wonder.  Maybe she only dates really high powered men and doesn't want to discuss, totally her right.  Maybe she has a side gf and doesn't want to discuss it.  I still find it weird.

Or maybe she just doesn't have anyone?  Why does there always have to be someone else?  Maybe there is nothing weird at all.

 But that would automatically take the wind out of that stupid red herring vote.  Both candidates are pro-choice now it would be a non-starter.  It drives me crazy that this is even still argued during Presidential elections.

 

Also maybe she doesn't talk about her personal life because it is personal & her SO doesn't want any part of the spotlight.  I guess if she ever did throw her hat in the media would dig around until they found out about her life.

 You could be totally right.  The average person just isn't single their entire adult life.

 That would be AWESOME.  A female, African American REPUBLICAN candidate. 

 

I'm not sure she "hides" her personal life so much as doesn't talk about it.  Some people don't talk about their private lives.

 Not only NSA but she was also Secretary of State.   .  She was/is a very busy woman who may not had time for a relationship or family.  She also may relish her private life.

She dated Rick Upchurch in the 70s.

Never married, no kids.

Both parents are dead.

She could be the perfect president.

Or not.

both of the Clintons are about as corrupt and entitled as they come--anyone remember whitewater ? Ron Brown ? committing perjury live on television ( both of them ) ? lying under oath to various congressional committees ? let alone all their " philanthropic " activities funneling money to them from various regimes around the world--they are ( the both of them ) in a word, poison

no thanks and good riddance

She's avoiding the news media, that alone should tell you something.

I'm sorry, but she is NOT the next generation.

On the other hand, she may think the next generation is to stupid to figure the truth out.

When Hillary was running back in 08, there was this one 19/20 y/o female who said she was going to vote for her "because she asked me for a bottle of water" when she visited the place the young woman worked. I so wanted the reporter to ask "are you for real?" Did Hillary even pay for the water? lol

The only one I have any interest to vote for at this point is Rand Paul or possibly Walker or Perry if they are running. The rest of them, I can't stand.
From the Dem side, I don't believe Hillary will get the Dem Nomination. The Dems tossed the experienced female candidate aside last go around for a newbie novice unknown amateur. They will do the same thing this time around, especially since 8 more years of age on her doesn't sit so well. Sorry, just watch Survivor, 9 out of 10 times, the oldest female is kicked off the island first. Doesnt' matter if she is smarter, strong, works harder, etc. That is just life.
