Not a huge dem supporter, but how can you possibly want anyone else at this point?

Trump is totally incompetent, inexperienced, dumb on policy, arrogant and rude, egotistical, and seems to be a maniac. (I don't think I need to say much more...)

Cruz is a whacky fundamentalist with far-right positions (abolish the IRS? a flat-tax for EVERYTHING? Seriously?). No one that works with him likes him + the establishment is only getting behind him to stop Trump.

Sanders says a lot of things that liberals like but that are utterly ridiculous / pie-eyed (15$ min wage? Get real.) He doesn't have the political chops to compromise or cut deals. Also, he acts as if "millionaires and billionaires" don't contribute anything to society, and that "greed" is the only thing standing in the way of economic prosperity. It's a liberal cartoonish depiction of the country that rallies liberals but is dumb. Plus, he will divide the country even more.


By process of elimination that leaves Clinton. I'm not saying she's a perfect specimen, but she is by far the most experienced and has demonstrated the ability to work with both political parties fairly positively.

In a perfect world, maybe the GOP puts forward a white knight at the convention -- but that seems unlikely at this point.


Talk me out of Hillary please. Who else can I possibly support???

Sounds like you made up your choice. Hope you have no family or friends interning near the white house from 2016-2024

Tell me who else to support and why.

Benghazi is definitely a bad mark for her. Disqualifying? Maybe. One could also argue she is less likely to make major mistakes like that again. Depends on how you view it.

Sanders understands how broken the entire system is the only one trying to propose ideas to fix it. While $15 minimum wage seems strange to you, it was under $2 in the 70s (ya inflation, yaaydaydaydyaa). So the change now doesn't seem that drastic. The biggest thing people hate is to think that fast food and entry level retail workers will get paid $15 for simple, non-experienced work.

Sanders is HEAVY in fighting big corps from avoiding paying taxes......logical....there shouldn't be loop holes to avoid paying taxes.

Sanders is trying to take away greed and, whether you like it or not, greed is an enormous issue in the U.S. I cannot believe how you don't understand the issue with greed.....


Sanders is honest, fighting actual issues, and a good candidate for the position.





All i want is a stable economy, cannabis legalization which promotes thousands of jobs in each state (not even a user, but the it being illegal is ridiculous), and people who make logical, rational decisions for the actual benefit of the majority of society.

Fix the lower class, stop putting so much pressure on the middle class, bring back U.S companies to the U.S, remove political party members who won't progress forward.

fairy-tale world.




all Hilary does is lie, that's it.

I agree. She's the best choice unless Kasich somehow wins at the convention. I'm going to vote for her simply as a protest against the idiots in my party who don't know how to pick a president.

The GOP is literally anti-democratic. They have been working on voter suppression to get their way for awhile. What about that narrative is inconsistent with their character?
