    Part of me hates to see her try. As long as she is straddling the line between serious presidential candidate and popular US House member my head cannon reasons there is still some sanity in some small part of our political institutions.

    Watching her actually seriously try to get the top job and watching the DNC ruin her for it would be so depressing.

              It would internally to them and it did in the end. They just simply weren’t prepared to spend money on an independent and found a way to stop it.

              It’s a shame, he’d have made a good president and I don’t think Trump would have beaten him. We’d be looking at a different history and world by now.
