The truth is, I pray for all the candidates, and these wild, uneducated, totally uninformed groups, who do not know what they are doing... plus the greatly informed, well educated people-- who feel as always, 'IS THIS THE ONLY CHOICE WE HAVE?'
Not a lot of men or women care to sit in the chair of the PRESIDER -(decider?) The most prominent change I have noted in a president, is how he looks going in, and how OLD he looks going out. Talk about STRESS. AND criticism? there are not many stones that are NOT hurled at a president during his term of service.
Notice how I have put HE in all the pronoun descriptions of gender? The United States has had only MEN all this time. I believe this year, we will elect Hillary Rodham Clinton. She not only has the wisdom of the eight years her husband served (she does not have to ask him, she was THERE.) She has years and years of service in government and working for the people in her own right.
Hillary has been criticized and berated for just about everything she does. I have noticed how pretty she is, in her simplicity. She dresses in very conservative colors and clothing, trying to be decent without drawing attention. She wears soft, easy hairstyles, which flatter her sweet smile, and nice face. She speaks with an honest diplomacy, seeking to be truthful without blasting out the 'warts' of her opponents. And what does she get for that- especially from Republicans? Accusations! They turn her diligent CARE for watching and guarding precious emails into something they call 'conspiracy'. She seeks to spread her message by accepting any and all the invitations she gets to speak, and accepts all the help any group will give her to finance the expensive job of getting her message out All of the candidates do this, in one way or another... why do they accuse Hillary of 'selling out' ? They really HAVE NO IDEA what a tremendous woman this is! thankfully, President Obama recognizes her brilliance and genuine effort and dedication.
NO TWO PEOPLE are exactly alike. If you study even just HALF of the presidents we have had, you would find VERY different ideas, diverse approaches... and frequently coming out with the same or similar results. Hillary isn't different being a woman, she is JUST DIFFERENT.
Hillary has to approach the needs of our Nation from a female point of view. At this late state in her life, I don't think she will decide to become male gender. Accusing her of being a WOMAN is actually equal to Donald Trumps understanding of what he is pretending to do.

I have to vent about Bernie to keep from talking to myself during housework
I didn't worry about Bernie becoming president. I speculated about how it would appear... in my imagination, should he find a way to get nominated... and I thought briefly, WELL... he would be better than Cruz, Trump or Carly Fiarino.
Today------I shuddered from a new worry. And it is causing me to lose any respect I HAD for Bernie Sanders. While a lot of people have SEEN the obvious 'vitriol' of Donald Trump, red-faced Bernie has been thinking he is sly and getting by. He is finally realizing he wont be putting his withered hind end on the Oval office chair seat--and he is FIRED up inside and PO determined to try to make voters believe they are better off with ANYONE than 'money grubbing' Hillary!! He has more of a 'tit for tat, you kill my dog I kill your cat' and/or " If I can't get elected I will make damn sure that you dont".
Sanders should drop out of the competition and unite the democrats against the Republican nominee right NOW. And have the President, the Vice President, present Secty of State and former ones, stand up for Hillary against the lying and tricky Republicans that are so nasty they call her a 'criminal' over a few perfectly safe and personal emails. Bernie chose the low road of getting his jewish friends to support him in small amounts believing this would put an 'elective' crown on his bald head.
All of it makes me sick.
I am not even sure I WANT a "lady" for a president! And if she were not married to Bill Clinton, I probably would not vote for her. But there is TOO MUCH knowledge in that couple concerning foreign policy, home protection, economy, education, legal steps, states rights and all other issues that face the Leader of the United States. The Presider, if you will!! People tend to forget that the presider is only a figurehead in many ways. Our states have people in the congress that are supposed to be OVERSEEING all that is done or changed. The Presider does NOT have all the 'say'... they are not the Pope! Nor the Monarch!
But Bernie thinks if he gets nominated, he can take Americas money and do what he wants with it. Send all the kids to school on our dimes. Whether they are qualified or whether their family could ALREADY afford it. I do think a 'medicare' for every one is a good idea, but it would need a lot of work and prolly wont come to pass in 'bernies' lifetime.
I say this to you BERNIE, trust your OWN merits and quit trying to float to victory because you drowned the other racer. you and trump.... i hope you both disappear from the news SOON.

NOT: Do you know how to do it? BUT: You do NOT do it, you just suggest, and maybe beg and finagle---so quit PROMISING!
HAVE you ever wondered why the changes in policy in our government are so few and far between? And why the BAD policies that hurt the most people and enrich the few are so HARD to change? We have a LEADER, true, and he has a cabinet and a large group of advisors.... then we have an elected congress... made up of two SENATORS from each of the fifty states, and representatives elected according to population of each state, known as the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. These are a conglomerate of Republican leaning people, Democratic believing persons and some independents, or wild men. This LEADER, or President, and his group have a plan, which they present to the governing body; the congress... and eventually, if they can come together with a compromise of how they will implement this plan, then someone poses a bill and presents it... they all vote on it, and the president either signs it into law, or vetoes it.
That is a LOT easier to write and grasp than it is to HAPPEN.
I have often wondered WHY would citizens vote for a candidate just because he SAID something that sounded good, and that he had a good looking presence and presented well (not really paying attention to the quality of the promises and rhetoric, but just LIKING the person). Then, in all my reading and investigation of the 'deals' and compromises in the government, I find that the law makers do the same thing!! They often go along with a plan, and endorse a friends bill just because he said it was good and that it would do all he claims. But they go on collecting their salary, sitting in their high seat and never investigate whether this will work out or not... insofar as they COULD investigate.
We are back to the CAMPAIGN trail again. Now the candidates WISH they had not swallowed the vast information floated about why we needed to stop Saddam Hussein and needed a war in Iraq. Or they wish they knew MORE about what is going on in Iran and North Korea.
It seems that no one but Donald Trump wants to put American lives on the line fighting ISIS, but his LOUD boast is that he plans to have the biggest and most fearsome military in the world, enough to SCARE off anyone. As a single man, and family... he has had the funds to have bodyguards and care takers to keep the enemy off his privacy and goods. But does he realize that he is trying to this for a COUNTRY....? A very large body of land, where the airways are riddled with rays from internet, from satellite emissions and photography? Not to mention how many ports are on waterways, and how many planes come and go daily. And that would be a VAST number of people to screen to trust to do ALL the government ordered.
They don 't do it now, why would he think they will do it for him? He says you just have to be tough... does Donald Trump really think the noise of his tongue is TOUGH? Like all others it is just 'solo' opinion. Louder maybe, but just as easy to dismiss. And his crowds are a smattering of the whole of the US citizenry.
It seems that Bernie Sanders is trying to take a page from Trump. To 'win' is just to trumpet LOUDLY that you are the best and that you are WINNING. It stirs up the excitable, but even they will get feet back on the ground by the time to vote in November; they will look at the shaky little white haired man that has NO grip on foreign policy, and is beloved because he wants the electorate to gather together and pay MILLIONS to put kids into college for free... and the doctors to treat EVERYONE who is ill at a price they can pay. Those are wonderful things if they were doable. But with the crumbling infrastructure of our states, and the lack of organization to do anything about it, about a third of the college kids would be killed or mangled on the roads and bridges trying to GET to school..
What Bernie Sanders has not said anything about, is the hundreds of students who have no money to EAT, and not a dime for a vehicle or gas. who will pay for those? Getting an education is more than the cost of tuition. Like I remember when I left high school and was late getting a diploma, simply because I did not have any shoes or a coat. I could not go to school with no clothes. So I went to work to buy them for myself- in a sweatshop ran by Jews in Atlanta, paying me 19 dollars a week for 40 hours of labor. I went back to a tech school later and finished high school and then went to college by the generosity of two lady friends who paid my tuition. (which was a drop in the bucket compared to today). It meant a lot to me!
The person who presides over out government means a lot to me also. I did not vote for Obama, but I recognize that he had done some good things for the working man. And I will vote democratic unless by some miracle, a CANDIDATE drops from the sky in the Repub race that is qualified.
