What I can't do is say anything nice about her or her husband. Nor will I be voting for her. I live in Massachusetts. Hillary will win my state in a landslide. As Noam Chomsky would tell you...I don't have to vote. My vote does not have any impact. ZERO. And no, I am not going to waste my time showing up to vote for Jill Stein or Johnson/Weld.

I fully understand these people are just involved to attempt to drain a few votes from the two major party candidates. Again, this means voting for them only comes into play in a swing state. They are not even allowed to participate in the process or the debates because the process is controlled by the two major parties. It is a closed system. You can only have an impact from the inside. This was how Bernie approached it but the Democrats literally said "We're on to you, Bernie, you are not one of us. We have our candidate."

Which is fine. It was not a good idea and not very democratic but that is our system, that's how it is done, and so the primary process was basically a joke.

So, the Supreme Court.

Yes, I get this. It has been for some time the number one selling point to vote for somebody that you know otherwise is completely the wrong person for the job.

Yes, because Hillary is not insane, she is the better choice to select a Supreme Court judge if you are picking between her and Trump. Otherwise I would not let her pick my team for a pick-up basketball game.

Citizens United. Yes, this must be overturned. Should we trust Hillary to work to actually do this? Seriously, the one person that has most taken advantage of Citizens United, has most benefited from it, has manipulated loopholes to pour more cash from big money donors and foreign interests into her coffers than any other candidate? Should we trust her to take the side of the people and overturn it?

Maybe if we elect her to a second term when she will no longer require it because she will finally be finished running for president and won't give a flying fuck about it...unless...she is thinking of when her daughter runs for president.

My feeling is, I don't trust her to do that and it would be foolish to do so.

So, I completely agree with what you are saying, Heath, but I do not think we have a choice of candidates that inspires any faith that we will move in the right direction.

So, then the question becomes "Why don't we have options that allow us to make an actual choice that will help us?"
