I agree that she is certainly not the great white hope...she is done. was done a while back...I am actually disappointed that she is doing this and it makes me question why...is there someone else's agenda that she is supporting? She is a very smart woman...therefore there must be a side agenda, no?
She has all the money she could ever need, and a politician her entire life. So she's making a grab for "most powerful human being on Earth." If she fails, she'll still be a very senior political talking head.

Why is she doing it? Why do athletes go for the Olympics? They're driven to be the boss.

It's the Almighty dollar! Some people are too stupid to know when they have enough!

okay and great from a philosophical perspective...no worries from the armchair...

but, my god' the speaking schedule alone...the garbage food, no sleep, continually strategizing...etc etc...and that's not even when they look their worst physically...that's at the end of their term...never seen a president leave office looking healthy...never seen one that didn't look ten years younger after being out of office for a week

she can't do it

and what about that little fainting spell and concussion...something was way wrong there that we were not privy to...I know they have to prove their health at a certain point but frankly....this will kill her...is it worth it...I guess it is to her

Why is she doing it? Why do athletes go for the Olympics? They're driven to be the boss.
I disagree...they do it because they are the type of individual to push their bodies beyond normal physical endurance they want to stretch themselves physically to the ultimate that their body can stand...it's crazy ...my guy marathons and he is pretty old (so am I)...he is likely in better physical shape heart and muscle than someone thirty years his junior...and they get physically high from it...endorphin heaven...

political heaven?

maybe

no, they don't make that much money...she will spend more money getting there than she will ever get back in pay

Hillary is running because she's not able to adapt or cut her losses. The habits of a lifetime are hard to break.
yes that might be a big part of it



Inexperience and lack of judgment.
could be...but he now has a lot of experience, no?

An endorphin rush is nothing compared to the exhilaration of being President of the United States and Master of the Universe.

Or so they think. It's the political mindset.

Not an issue. Hillary trades in power. She's only interested in money insofar as it can get power (it can't always. The two are closely tied, but not interchangeable).

political mind set, yes what is that anyway...people who are so self assured that they either truly believe they can make the right decisions to help others or they don't care and can just make the hard decisions regardless of who hurts or who dies...it is interesting that ability to completely distance ones self

power...not something I have ever aspired to nor could I live with the results of making decisions that will change others in ways that can not be repaired or changed, people that can certainly interest me in how they process their environment

Not an issue. Hillary trades in power. She's only interested in money insofar as it can get power (it can't always. The two are closely tied, but not interchangeable).
so the need for power drives her...I always felt that her marriage was like a business arrangement in many ways...I have always been a little curious about how she truly felt about his infidelity...

Bill O’Reilly: Hillary Clinton has an advantage because it’s ‘open season’ on white men in America

Bill O'Reilly.....fighting for the persecuted, downtrodden straight white christian male!









Fox News host Bill O’Reilly argued on Monday that Hillary Clinton’s budding presidential campaign was already getting a boost due to the attack on “traditional American values.”

If you’re a Christian or a white man in America, it’s open season on you,” he said. “Therefore, Hillary Clinton has an advantage. She can run a general campaign: ‘First woman in the White House, and I’m gonna help you by increasing the entitlement society.’ It will take a very articulate and tough-minded Republican to defeat her.”

O’Reilly then promised to treat her campaign fairly, with one caveat.

“I don’t think gender matters one bit,” he argued. “And if this ‘war on women’ business is resurrected, we’ll have something to say.”

''open season'' - laughable!

Bernie Sanders would have been a decent Indy president as he opposes war and wants more social equity:



Gopher this seems very contrary to your continuous praise of Obama being responsible for the highest corporate profits during his presidency.

Fair point. Gopher, have you a response?

For that matter, the following is a rather eloquent screed against President Bush. It is certainly naive, and shows a distressing lack of understanding of basic civics, but I would have to point out that Obama has committed every one of the "sins" laid at the door of Bush.


How say you? Does Obama deserve equal condemnation? If so, why have you and P!nk and the Indigo Girls not condemned him?

So she is soon to be known as a stupid airhead.
