As I see it Hillary is just more of the same old, and Trump is the scheming snake oil salesman looking for the ultimate government hook-up so he can dole out positions and favors to his billionaire buds. I don't really "like" either Hillary or Trump, I was a Bernie guy. But forced to choose, I sure as hell am not voting for the spoiled rich kid club. At that point, we might as well just plan on moving into the company housing and buying groceries with company script.

"Yes, boss. I'll do whatever you say, just don't fire me...". Screw that.
I trust Sen. Warren, Sen. Franken and Sen. Sanders is what I said.

As I've said all along, it's all about the fucking Supreme court. I don't give a shit if Hillary starts biting the heads off kittens and drop kicking puppies into the audience at her rallies. I don't give a shit if she invites Henry fucking Kissinger to tea in the Rose Garden. I don't give a shit if she starts locking up Animal Liberation Front nutcases and bitch slapping whiney assed Code Pink protesters on sight. I hope she takes a big steaming dump into a box, gift wraps it and has her Secret Service detail hand deliver it to Jill Stein.

No unions.
Six day, 10 to 12 hours a day work week.
No OSHA< EPA< MSHA <DOL <NIOSH <FDA
No safety departments at work.
No Social Security, no national parks, no clean air, no clean water, no public works departments
No consumer protection agency
No regulated banks
With no unions, we end up with zero job benefits
No prevailing wage scale

We would be much closer to Nigeria than Sweden in our quality of life.

I know what she is. If she wasn't running against the emperor jackass of Trump tower she'd be in real trouble, which is what scares me if he drops out. Any other "acceptable" 'Pub candidate would be a Progressives' nightmare and strong opposite candidate.

This latest email crap is a shining example of bias, it is a big thing because it happened while she was Sec'y of State. How naive can y'all be, how do you think ambassadorships are handed out? And then they come home to be a Fellow at some prestigious institute.

Ambassadorships are bought with campaign donations.
