Like it it or not, it's a foregone conclusion.  The Clintons will be back where they belong. Hillary will be the next President.

    Let's hope she does a better job for the USA than that bloody Thatcher woman did for the UK.

    I suppose the Republicans could still pull this one out and nominate someone electable.

    But Hillary Clinton will be no Thatcher. She's an incrementalist, simply not interested in sweeping programs and great changes, and has even said things like that out loud in response to Sanders' more radical proposals. She's got a shady side - not nearly as extreme and dangerous as her opponents make out, but enough to be a perennial distraction from the business at hand. Even conservative columnist George Will, certainly no fan of Barack Obama, credits him with one thing: There have been no scandals - none, not from him, not from his cabinet. With Clinton, we'll be back to business as usual.

    The people of the United States are tired with the status quo and are looking to break away from that antiquated two party system. Politicians, by whatever side they ascribe to are generally dishonest and loyal to their own self interest. I believe that is the force behind the Trump movement. Hillary, on the other hand, is the result of greed by the low information voter. These are the people who believe that the Government can give them anything they want. Neither of these people would have a snowball's chance in hell if the people were truly informed. We will get a stupid, corrupt government regardless of who wins. The problem that results will be directly attributable to the stupidity of the uninformed voters on both sides.

    I think that the Navy SEALs and ambassador Stevens might not agree with anything to do with Hillary other than prison when she allowed them to be murdered

    Hey, don't blame the US for being supremely good at generating media hype; it's our national gift. Australia just needs to do a better job of flooding the international press with its own traumas. We haven't had a really good, media-preoccupying story out of Australia since the Dingo Ate My Baby.

    [/quote]Steve, You're right about Clinton and scandals. But Obama's had some-the IRS, Fast and Furious, Benghazi. If these had happened under an R; the libs would be furious.

    Fast and Furious and the IRS issues weren't at cabinet level, and I question whether there is really a scandal around Benghazi; it's been quite a stretch to come up with any misdeeds there that get beyond the conspiracy-theory level of concreteness. If we concede that there's a scandal in there somewhere then yes, it's at cabinet level. But since it's Clinton, it supports my larger point, and George Will's  - like him or not, Obama has been remarkably clean, moreso than we can expect Clinton to be.

    [/quote] Clinton is presently under investigation by the FBI , and is closer to going to Prison than she ever is in going to the White House .Scandals and the Clintons along with the Democratic party , go hand in hand .Everyone both Democrats and Republicans are deathly afraid of Trump .Not so much for what he will do as the next President , but for what he will find and put a stop to , when he is in the White House.Trump can not be Bought Off  or Bribed , as each and every other present and previous Politician has been , since day one .They will do everything in their power , to try to discredit Trump and put a stop to him, from ever getting to the White House .The constant on going accusations are hillarious to watch develop and come to light , each and every day , as he gets Stronger and Stronger , and closer and closer to being elected to take Hillary on .Hillary should be in Prison for what she has done .Hopefully she will be very soon !Trump is exposing them, for what they all are .It is about time  that someone said it like it is !

    [/quote] Completely wrong.  You said, 'Everyone both Democrats and Republicans are deathly afraid of Trump .Not so much for what he will do as the next President , but for what he will find and put a stop to'.  Actually, it is the exact opposite.  I and everyone I talk to are deathly afraid of what he will do and will try to do if he were to get in office.  There may be an investigation, but noting new that others haven't done.  For example, on the email issue, it was recently released that Colin Powell and others did exactly the same thing.

    Desertrat has hit the nail on the head. The two party system has closed out the voters and turned our republic into being ruled by money and what money can buy. For example; if a person is elected to a national office and wants to sit on any committee then that person must pay the party an estimated $100,000.00 to voice his/her opinion and presumably yours also. Anything higher than just being on a committee can cost up to $600,000.00 payable to the Party. Somehow to me this process smacks of bribery, and extortion, depending on who pays and who receives. Are there written statutes that make bribery and extortion illegal? Are the people who practice these things and condone these things good citizen representatives? While television has been called a vast wasteland, it seems appropriate to me to describe our governmental process in Washington, D.C. as a vast cesspool.
