It is telling you some of us think Trump is a scary person and we'd rather have a Dem crook in charge of the country than Repub Trump.

Just so you know.

Unlike Obama, Bill Clinton was a leader, and could compromise and be pragmatic for the good of the country.
I suspect he is more flawed at his core than many of us will know, and if I had a young daughter, I'd not have trusted her within a few miles of him. He certainly is unethical and lacks integrity from a truthfulness standpoint, so he shares that trait with Hillary.
Just because he is personable, does not mean his values or raw ambition would lead him to be honest.
Ironically enough, he couldn't even get the (D) nomination today, based on how he governed less than two decades ago.


Hillary on the other hand is certainly worse, because she is a total political chameleon that will do or say anything to get elected. So while Bill lacks a functioning moral compass, Hillary would take that pocket compass and choke someone with it, if it lead to her being in power.

Unfortunately, the polls say not enough feel that way, however OTOH... since the polls were totally, completely wrong about Obama the last two elections, I think the polls are malarkey!

I agree, BTW I think Bill was also the most intelligent President that has ever been in the WH!

Actually, Jimmy Carter is regarded by many historians to be the most intelligent American president. Unfortunately, he was arguably the worst American president, too.

I no longer vote since Obonga's first term[yeah, I was snookered], but I like Bernie, and so do most I know.
But then why does she get such a high favorability among democrats if she's not electable by them?
Maybe you just have better-informed friends?

I think the Benghazi film will hurt Clinton as much as the Michael Moore film, "Fahrenheit 9/11" hurt G.W. Bush's re-election.

Maybe because people who are capable of critical thought have watched the nine bogus "investigations" which have all come up empty and come to the conclusion that this is all a smear campaign by Conservatives.
