I gave it a shot at providing a similar answer, but you hit the nail on the head...

All this thing about Warren, she won't run, and like Cosmocat, I urge to point out anyone better than Hillary who IS running...I would love to see a Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren ticket, but do not forget that the electorate IS ignorant and they won't see themselves drinking a beer with either of them, so their chances of winning is not very high.

The GOP clown car is not a funny one, it is scary, anyone of those crazies will do a lot of damage to the country and the World, if you think GW was harmful, wait and see.

Democrats have to become united because Republicans always are, no matter who is running, they don't read, they don't try to understand what their candidates are really promising, when you find women, and some Latinos still vote republican you know then that their level of understanding of the issues and their candidates is zero.

I may not like Hillary 100%, but I dislike the crazies very much, and when the time comes, I will make sure to vote for the one that still gives some hope to all of us.
