Solution to: Like Bernie, but think Hillary will win the nomination. [View all]

If you think Hillary will win the nomination, then I suggest placing a bet with someone that she will win it... BUT vote for the candidate who has shown integrity and good judgment. It's a win-win strategy!

Incidentally, I'm not sure I would bet that Hillary will win the general election. In the general election, independents will make the difference. Those are the folks who vote for the best person, not the party. It sure is too bad there is not a Caucus of Independents to help select nominees.
