Yes, I will vote for Hillary, however

1. The first sanctimonious "I will vote for HIllary while gagging" thread of the day...

While the more important question is how we got to where the 6 people vying for the job are really piss-poor choices.

Admittedly two of them are way better than the other four, but still, in a nation of maybe 200 million people eligible for the job, is this really the best we can do?

I will vote for Hillary. Of course I will vote for Hillary if she is nominated-- any other choice would be be wasted foolishness.

But, have we asked why Hillary and Bernie are the only two available? Is there no one else out there with the skills and energy to run the country? The Republicans virtually admit failure with their choices, but how much better are we?

I have run for office and, like others I know who also ran, some of whom won, running really sucks. It really does. It is at the same time mindcrushingly hard work, the target for humiliation, having all your dirty linen exposed, and expensive. And for what-- a job that exposes you every day to criticism.

Every politician I have talked to said that the day after inauguration is the day you start fundraising and running for the next election. And I am not the only one with bad memories about elections.

So, any ideas how we can change the process, even a little bit, to make it easier for better people to run?
