10. Would vote for Obama over Hillary again and again and again.

Apr 2016

I like Obama and understand what he has been up against. He may have compromised, but he is not an innately evil, corrupt person. Not by any means.

So of course I would vote for Obama over Hillary.

BUT

1) Hillary is NOT and will never be, Obama redux. She is entirely different with different values and motivations and anyone with an ounce of perception and insight should be able to see it. If you can't see it then you should find someone who can and let them guide you from here on out.

Certainly Obama knows it.

2) Now that Obama has straightened out some of Bush's messes, we need to finish the job.

Only Bernie has the strength of character and the will of heart to do it.
