Hillary is a goddess compared to trump and one of the most qualified individuals to ever run for office. She's never committed any crimes plus released her tax returns unlike trump. She wants to unify the country...she is also fucking hot as hell for being 90


So, like a good Clintonite, you refuse to answer my question because you can't find a negative in it, and instead decide change the subject to something completely irrelevant just so that you can formulate a negative ("unlike Trump") to respond with, and call it an answer.

What makes Clinton more qualified?
I honestly think it's just that people want to feel the magic of the first female president being elected right after the first African American president.
But, if you think about it, what does she offer in the name of her "world peace" other than promises?
Trump has actual plans. What are Clinton's?

No, I haven't declared you winner yet, just putting you in the running. Good luck, lil nipper.


As an extension to the questions above, what fear does Trump instill?

Would be interesting to see Clinton turned down in favour of Sanders. What are the chances of that after the recent email scandal do you think?

I'm not even in favor of that. I think the will of the people should be respected.

Hillary Clinton received millions of more votes than Bernie Sanders.

To nominate Sanders instead of Hillary because of the DNC's fuck up would be doing the millions of Democratic primary voters who voted this past year a huge disservice.

The people should decide their nominee, not the party.

I disagree. The people don't know what is good for them.

What form of government are you in favor of? What role should the people have in choosing their government leadership, if any?

Only educated people should be enfranchised. The electoral system should also be much more transparent and candidates should be forced to run on issues and held accountable if they fail to deliver on promises made during their race.

Ah yes, education tests for voting, those have definitely never been misused.

Not my suggestion. A simple requirement of a postgraduate degree is enough. Though there needs to be a reconsideration of universities in America. Postgraduates would have to be from approved institutions and institutions should only receive that approval if they meet a certain quality. No creationist universities for example.

I don't have all the details worked out but I do believe that enfranchisement is a privilege that should be used responsibly and it cannot be done so by the ignorant and ill-informed.

So those who have the advantages necessary to become a good student and make it through college have more important voices because they were able to jump through enough hoops to get 60-120 credits? The large range is coz I'm not sure that the filthy hoi polloi with Associates Degrees are good enough to join the noble ranks of the modern voter. :(
