That was just a question with no follow-up, on my end. Simply curious. |

No. I base it on everything within their platforms. Which are pretty much regressive. |

If you would take either of the possible Republican candidates over Hillary you are absolutely insane. |
Not when I think she is the only one who is legitimately a horrible person. |

I don't really expect any, but do you have any reasons for such a feeling? |

She isn't. Thats all there is to it. She has a problem showing weakness because thats how she grew up, so she continuously tries to hide any and downplay those situations, which gives her a lack of humility and makes her feel cold. But in reality she isn't. It's just a shield, and it's what makes Obama so much more attractive than her...he is warm, and he has the people qualities that can resound with large audiences. Hillary is a great person 1 on 1, many have said, but Obama can make everyone in a packed stadium feel like he is talking to THEM directly.
In any case on a policy and platform standpoint, they are both basically very similar...it's just that she has a completely different approach to the presidency than he does. |

Yes, unfortunately most people don't think about things as much as I do. Some people accuse me of voting on party lines alone, but really, I form my opinions of the candidates based on what they say, what their record is and what they present at the debates. The republican debates have been absolutely atrocious. It's like a pissing match to see who can make themselves out to be the bigger, badder . Whether it be immigration, healthcare, Iraq, national security etc... If a republican wins the upcoming election I'm finding a way to leave this country. |

People said the same thing about the last election (if Bush got re-elected). Still here, they are. lol |

| I agree whole heartedly. Similar article in The New Yorker a week or so back. But even a Clinton white house would be much better than a McCain white house. |
