I agree.

I'm a Sanders supporter and have never voted for anyone but a Democrat for President...but Clinton is so status quo I might consider voting for Trump, especially as it appears he will move way to the center after being nominated. On the immigration thing I basically support him. I wouldn't support deportations, but basically everything else. I'm for national health insurance. I think Trump actually is too, he just isn't saying it.

Where he scares me is with the foreign policy....although Hillary is an interventionist and hawk herself so what's the difference?

She's going to say whatever she can to get elected, and she'll get in office, put someone from Goldman Sachs in charge of economic policy, allow more H1bs and do nothing to stop illegal immigration (because that's what her backers want), further hurting the middle class, the same way her husband did.

The difference? Trump is a hot reactor who blurts out the first thing that comes to his mind, and then sticks to it, whether it's correct or not. Clinton is much more analytical. When it comes to foreign policy, analytical is a *good* thing.

She sure missed Benghazi and Syria in her analysis.

It's never a wasted vote. Always vote conscience

Only if analytical means sleazy.
Is that why 4 Americans were killed, because she's analytical? I have a great idea, lets arm one side in a foreign conflict and see if the other side gets mad.

I'll either write Bernie in or vote for a third party candidate.
