Bernie Sanders is not qualified to be President of the United States [View all]

There is far too much at stake in this Presidential Election.

The Supreme Court is hanging in the balance.

Civil rights and equal justice desperately need to be addressed.

Abortion rights are being eroded.

LGBT rights are constantly under attack.

We still need to improve Health care and Health care access.

We still need sensible solutions to handle Climate change.

College debt is a huge problem.

Addressing poverty, housing and education is at a critical point.

Global conflicts are real and will require sensible, knowledgeable and realistic dialogue and plans.

And as always, we need to improve the economy.

Bernie Sanders platform is weak, and does not do enough to address these many issues.

Hillary Clinton is the only candidate who has the experience, knowledge and experience to start tackling these issues on day one.

This isn't a game. This is real life. And this Bernie Sanders movement is selfish, ignorant and dangerous. Enough.
