That option had not occured to me
Well, broaden your mind. Like Monnie, I will vote for Hillary Clinton without great unhappiness. She isn't my first choice, but, Obama wasn't my first choice, either. Neither is liberal enough for me. At least Obama was black and Clinton is a woman.
Hillary Clinton has a huge amount of experience in government; is very smart; is well educated; is not sexist or racist; and is stable. We have rarely had a candidate as well rounded as she is. Her policies are not exactly to me taste, but at least she will not try to turn back the clock on Roe v. Wade or set up a registry of Muslims. What else can you ask for nowadays?
I can't imagine what sets them apart for biological characteristics that they don't control . . . or why that would make them "more liberal" than anyone else in the Democratic party. But I digress.
I hate to disappoint DF, but faced with the choice between Trump and Clinton (we don't call him Donald, so let's not call her Hillary) . . . I cannot and will not vote for Trump. So, Clinton it is.
You mean you're not a lunatic??? And you're not going to take your vote and sit out because no candidates meet your lofty standards?
Who knew?!?
Believe it or not, I've missed you - it's been a bit too delikit in here for me.
I've missed you, too.
I can't not vote . . . although it crossed my mind at one point to leave that area unmarked on the ballot. I just decided that he must be stopped and I can only do that by voting against him. Clinton has her problems, and I'm no fan, but she is not an assclown, so there's that . . .
