Reply #3: There OUGHT to be a major backlash - this is EXACTLY the type of politics we don't want

It's one thing to believe that the two candidates have similar positions on the issues, but that is only a small part of governing.

To Hillary supporters (in case you're listening)... if you heard this report about any other candidate than Hillary, would you, in your heart-of-hearts, be able to support this candidacy, knowing that it could lead to parallel structures? This is what authoritarian regimes do (think Bush/Cheney)--destroy the established structures to replace them with one of one's one creation and where the only loyalties are to the creator.

Is this what you want for our country? Do you not see the potential for disaster?
