I've argued that elections have consequences so it's important to get engaged ... and they typically just laugh at my senior naivete. I'm beginning to agree with them seeing what's gone on in this primary.

For me, this means she would be as legitimate a nominee as Bush was president. djean111 Apr 2016 #1
