Hillary is an administrator -- but we need a LEADER

Administrators are a dime a dozen. True leaders are RARE. Ask yourself this: How many people in government have INSPIRED you during your lifetime?

BERNIE INSPIRES THE NATION TO REACH FOR GREATER HEIGHTS!!!! I can't help but wonder how many people scoffed at JFK when he wanted to take us to the moon.

... going to be able to do this unless they proffer some unilateral actions that don't need congress like Hillary has been done from the beginning and others will follow.

I don't mind if Hillary administrates her unilateral actions

Maybe they just don't get it yet. That's pretty typical. Most people are behind the curve.

Where are the noisy, in-their-faces protests that show any leader we're worth their time?

She ran a bad campaign last time and she's running a bad campaign now. She lacks the skills to be a good administrator and the conscience to be a decent human being.

She's a person of ambition whose two government jobs were essentially arranged for her. She did not distinguish herself in either one. They were merely means to an end.
