She is the most qualified on EITHER ticket. She knows the world situation, knows how diplomacy MUST be used, has learned (first hand) from mistakes made by Congress and other Presidents. Regardless of whether she takes as much money from "special interests" as some candidates, I don't think she can be bought! She KNOWS who she's dealing with PERSONNALY around the world! I like Bernie, but he is largely impractical. I like what he wants, but IT is largely impractical. I remember the country under her husband .... low unemployment, the "middle class" at least LOOKING like it could come back. He made some mistakes but, not NEARLY as many as his replacement! There has been a very convincing message of distrust (and perception management) against her. Largely lies. If those running against her were opened up to such scrutiny, many wouldn't be running! O.K. You can ban ME now. This post resembles the USSR. Say the wrong thing and ....disappear! Side: Hillary Clinton

So many people seem to think the mistakes Bill made had enough to do with Hillary that they've never stopped holding them against her. My point is, Bill wouldn't be "President" but, definitely a Presidential advisor. One that has made mistakes and wouldn't want his wife to make more. BOTH have learned from mistakes, both have done very GOOD things. NO one likes mistakes. I like Bernie, but, the RNC and Breitbart are chomping at the bit to turn him into a "communist" (which he certainly is NOT)! But they are VERY good at Character assassination (or organizational), and they would LOVE to run against him for that reason! Perception management is their forte. They will brutalize Bernie, they've already brutalized Hillary and Bill but haven't proven a thing .... other than HIS weakness for PYT's, and, many of us have that. Okay: I apologize for the misread. Side: Bernie Sanders

Hillary is immensely qualified. First lady, senator, and Secretary of State. We couldn't hope for better. She has a huge amount of political capital, which means she can get congress to vote her way. She and her husband have made the party what it is, a center-left party. She will do her best to make sure the Democratic agenda is pushed into law. It is important to note that Bernie Sanders is the regressive in this race. His ideology is much more in line with liberals of period before 1980. Unfortunately, he doesn't recognize that the country is a different place ideologically than it was back then. It is obvious to everyone that policies have swung too far into the favor of corporations and the extremely wealthy. Something clearly must be done. But this is the 21st century. The solutions of the post-WII era are not the solutions we should be looking for. If Sanders has his way we will likely eventually have the same conservative revolution that happened in response to similar policies in the 80s. The Clintons have pragmatically reshaped the party in order to make it more successful. We should let them finish the job. Side: Hillary Clinton
