I just don't get how anyone could vote for her. For those who do, too often it sounds dysfunctional.

"Because it's time to see a woman in the oval office.", or "We're familiar w/ the Clintons, we know them and they know us.", or "She's electable."

Hogwash! Terrible reasons to choose any candidate.

Being a woman isn't enough--her time in elected office isn't enough--look at her record--that's what counts, not how long she's been sitting in the chair!

You know, people often like to hear songs w/ out listening to the lyrics. Many may be used to the same song and station, but are you really listening to what's being said?

An electable candidate is someone people will vote for. Well, then don't vote for her--then she's not electable, "Voila!"

She will likely support this trade pact despite what she says now just so she can get elected, look at her history--her husband's. They are birds of a feather who lust after power.

This TPP would be so very terrible for our country, and people are standing in line to choose a person who would help enact this.

Hillary would without the slightest hesitation bind the US into the TPP.

The Clintons are globalists so of course they would welcome TPP.

That's not the vulgar point I'm making....

My point is we don't have to sign up for this. Why would we?

Democrats vote based on how a person makes them feel. It's all based on their limbic system not their left hemisphere.

The main and in a lot of cases the only reason people will vote for her is the D next to her name. Most people are so clueless about the issues that they only vote for the R or the D.

As a pro-free trader and capitalist and someone who usually votes Democrat, my choice for president in this order are:

1) Chris Christie (dropped out)
2) John Kasich
3) Hillary Clinton
4) Bernie Sanders (a very reluctant vote)

And after that, nobody else.

I sure hope Kasich pulls through. If not, it looks like Hillary it is.

We need trade agreements which don't overwhelmingly function at the expense of the middle class.

Let's not ignore that fact either.
