As you’ve indicated there are hard core Donald Trump supporters as well core Hilary Clinton supporters - they will not budge from their chosen candidate. I liked Bernie Sanders - and to be honest, was the more ‘cleaner’ of the candidates, but I did have to wonder whether he could stand the RNC onslaught at seventy-five years-old. Bernie was hung with the ‘socialist’ banner because of his viewpoint. Canada has socialized medicine as well other democratic countries, but sad to say many view socialism as akin to traditional Russian-style socialism and ergo are unable to differentiate the two. Different ideologies. So, my feeling right or wrong, Hilary seemed the right choice for this individual.<br /><br />When it came to a vice-presidential pick, only one name stood out - Elizabeth Warren - highly intellectual and outspoken. To be honest, I would rather be voting Elizabeth Warren into the Presidency than Hilary - again, politically speaking, Warren is a prime choice. I hope that Elizabeth Warren will be in President Hilary Clinton’s cabinet with Bernie Sanders as Speaker Of The House - he has the capability to work both sides of the House. Obviously, Elizabeth Warren is now a ’moot’ point as Vice-President - since Senator Tim Kaine is selected as Clinton’s running mate. Personally, I’m a little disappointed - however, there are those who feel Elizabeth Warren could accomplish more as remaining a United States Senator from Massachusetts.<br /><br />Speaking of Vice-Presidential candidates, Mike Pence has been shanghaied into being Donald Trump’s understudy under the GOP flag is now chafing with the latest Donald Trump antics that will further take the GOP further in the sewer after the ’orange-faced’ one continues to dig his own hole - Pence’s own political future is highly at risk by just being Trump’s understudy. Rumors are Mike Pence is trying to sever his ties with Donald Trump’s campaign of madness. The problem - like it or not - Pence’s legacy will be tied into those of Donald Trump.<br /><br />I have a feeling that tonight’s debate may very well supply the GOP with its escape plan out of the Trump madness - although doing so means the GOP will surrender its GOP presidential hopes in the process. According to reports the GOP has pretty much abandoned its efforts in media advertising for the Presidency and instead is putting its money behind its GOP senate and congressional races. According to some GOP-insiders, Donald Trump is a lost cause. Huffington News has reported a contingency of GOP politicians - tonight’s ’Town Hall’ presidential debate between Clinton and Trump may decide whether more Republican officeholders and supporters stay with Donald Trump or jump ship. According to Politico, Clinton leads in the polls by wide or slight numbers in most states.andrew727https://www.blogger.com/profile/09811357036115723067noreply@blogger.com
