Related: About this forumJerry Jones explains why he won't run for president, is 'proud' of Hillary Clinton
....
So, anyway, now that we know Jones won't be making a late run this fall, who is he backing? He wouldn't say, refusing to endorse either candidate. He did, however, speak highly of the presumptive Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, who's on the verge of becoming the first woman to be the presidential nominee of a major party.
"We were all so proud last night to hear and see the first woman of a major party nominated," Jones said. "The thing that I am impressed about is her grit and the fact that she's endured. Boy, she has certainly had a lot of life's experiences right before all of our eyes and they're going to get aired out real good. You can't become president unless you're reminded of all of your background. Mr. Trump is too.
"So, you know, whoever ... if that's what they want to do is be president of the United States, in my mind, they've earned it by the time they get there."

Come June 16 you'll be expected to fall in line and support the presumptive NFC East champs.
Constructive criticisms of Tony Romo will still be allowed.
