2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Let's Compare Senator Sanders and H. Clinton on some key issues. [View all]senz
(11,945 posts)What I've seen of her character, especially during the 2008 campaign, has been a huge turnoff. She lacks vision, mission, largeness of heart, concern for the American people, honesty, openness/transparency, egalitarianism, greater interest in others than in herself, and especially: good faith. I just don't trust her, don't hold her in esteem. I don't think a Clinton presidency would be good for the nation. At best, she would execute her duties in a rote, programmed manner (just as she conducts her campaign), trying to balance public opinion with the prerogatives of her big-money supporters.
The country is in crisis, and what she has to offer is just not good enough.
Although I will give you this: she is better (barely, but better) than a Republican. And if she wins, it will be for that reason -- which doesn't say much for her as a candidate.
So I can't understand your enthusiasm.
