Does lunch count? I told The Donald I did not want to have lunch with him. Would I have lunch any of the others? As a woman her age, sure I would do lunch with Hillary, especially if the tab was on her. We could yack about children, grandchildren, etc., etc. It would not even have to involve politics. lol

Why does this question come up in the realm of politics? I want a politican that can effectively implement policies that further my agenda/hopes for the direction of this country. Could care less about being able to hang out with them. I don't if there cool, nice, have any similar interests to me....except for my political agenda. And remember theses are politicians. Trying to get the measure who these people actually are from a one off meeting would be to my mind Impractical if not impossible.

I stick with researching there histories and seeing what they've actually done/achieved to make the best informed decision I can.

Neither Trump nor Johnson drink, but I would choose one of them. I wouldn't want to talk politics with either. Their business careers would be far more interesting. I have no interest in talking to Hillary or Stein.

Naw, his opiate or addiction is public attention.

And even if he had a milk shake with you, it would be boring - he would be just talking about himself.

Of those choices? Clinton, hands down.

I've already had way too many beers with egotistical braggarts who sincerely believe they are god's gift to women, so that rules out Trump. Whatever he was drinking or not drinking.

Stein and Johnson are no doubt very nice people, but I suspect they are a little bland.

Clinton will have the best insider stories on Washington politics for the past 30 years, and I'd love to hear them. I'll bet she can be deliciously snide and funny as all get out.

He sure does have a nation hanging on his every word...must not be that boring

I think Clinton would try to analyze you...your motives, political leanings, background, etc and give answers based on that. Trump would shoot you straight and blow less smoke up your arse.

Putting aside that I was a young woman who met Trump as a young man on the make, all he did was BRAG about how rich and powerful he was THEN. All he had to to do was snap his fingers and people would jump to comply with his every wish, not withstanding the Racist remarks. I could quote his exact words to me, but I won't.

Do you think in this respect he has changed over the years? If you are an Average Joe, how long would you want to listen to bragging about his money and power over a beer? Maybe as a male you might like to hear about Trump's conquests? Well, that also, is relevant to his WEALTH. lol

And you actually think Hillary wants to hear about a peon like you? She may smile but in her head she's thinking "kill me now".

But yeah, I want to hear about people that built stuff and amassed tons of wealth. I don't want to hear about career politicians/lawyers that built their dynasty on the backs of saying what gets them votes.

Other for now. As we don't know too much about Jill Stein. Well if she drinks then she would be the choice. If she does not drink , still and have a beer but makes hers a non alcoholic beer or cocktail.

If Other includes most recent nom. candidates -- Bernie. A few beers and Bernie would be singing about Trump and Hillary.
