If Hillary is still alive to run in 2020, I have a feeling her missing 33000 emails would magically reappear (no thanks to her, of course.) They would be found by the Pakistani Awan IT brothers (for a finders fee).
In the end, it even worked with Sanders. Hillary paid off his debt and I believe he got a house or two out of it as well. This, the price for supporting her, instead of continuing to challenge her in the general election.
Remember he had to go against everything he said in order to grovel at her feet.
Sanders lost every bit of respect he had when he did that. If he had simply walked away, stuck with calling the process unfair as we later discovered, and called the Democrat party the sham that it is, he'd be in a much better position now to influence the next election.
The one thing in Sanders defense was that he was facing the ugly situation of fracturing the dem vote and handing Trump the win. Trump narrowly won anyway but Sanders didn't know that.

Talk about a tough choice.
And in the end, Sanders picked politics over principles. Went against everything that he said he stood for.
No-one dislikes the Russian Agent more than me, but Hillary? I didn't like her in 2016, but there was no other choice. This time, 2020, we have time to run a proper candidate. Enough of Hillary; she is nearly as much a criminal as the current one, although I don't think she would have sold out America to our enemies.
You need to find some credible sources rather than regurgitating all the Mother Jones, Salon, etc., leftist tripe.
As to Hillary, she and the DNC had plenty of time, so don't imply that she was the only choice in 2016. She ran in 2008 and never stopped running, hence the reason she & Obama worked out her support for him in exchange for the SoS job, which she royally botched.
Hillary Clinton would have been, and still would be, the single most qualified president in history. A Yale law grad; 8 years as the most active, most involved first lady (including directing the health care effort that eventually led us to ObamaCare); years as US Senator; finally as Secretary of State who logged almost 1 million miles of flying in meeting with leaders around the world.
Concerned Americans need to take a hard look at where we failed in getting her into office. In any election, it is not enough to just show up and vote. We should have been out there volunteering, doorbelling, informing friends, etc.
Nope.
It didn't lead to a stellar Presidency, but George H W Bush (aka 41, Bush 41, Bush the Elder) was the most qualified.

Rising stars such as Harris and Booker are still relatively young and I doubt they want to run against an incumbent president.
Considering the precedent that failure in the general dooms you to never run for President again - I think some politicians would rather play it safe. Of course, that's a "precedent" and not a "rule." Nothing is preventing Hillary from running again.

Having all the experience in the world does not mean she would have had the temperament, the stamina or the ideas to make her a good president. She was all those things you say, but was she good at any of them? Would she have had any ideas on her own, she never has had any? Well I take that back, it has been her idea to whine, whine, whine. Oh and for doorbelling, this shows you might be behind the times. This isn't the way to campaign anymore except maybe for local candidates.
