In reply to the discussion: We can do better than Hillary Clinton. [View all]Parable Arable
(126 posts)So if it really comes down to Hillary, I'll support her. That being said, I agree that she isn't my ideal choice for a candidate. I'd like to see someone new enter the race. Given that our party is becoming increasingly divided between the 3rd way and the progressive caucus, I'd like to elect somebody that could, at the very least, reconcile these two groups. Clinton has done an admirable job as Sec of State, but I just don't her as the "unifyer" that I'm hoping for. Yes, I recognize that electing a Bernie Sanders type of figure would be a monumentally challenging task, but I hope that the next Democratic president will be able to remind his congress that "hey, don't forget what the Democratic party is supposed to stand for, alright?"
