    I also ask, what has she accomplished? I honestly don’t know, and it is part of the reason she’s not my preferred Democrat.

      I would recommend reading the article as it devotes a lot of text to discussing this.

        That’s one of the biggest issues with how we do elections. It’s a popularity contest, not a vote for who is actually best suited for the role, hence why we have to even speak about Trump. All celebrity, 0 credentials.

          President isn’t a behind the scenes position though. If you can’t handle the spotlight and promotion of a campaign, you can’t handle being the person the president.
