It's what makes America great, any citizen can become the President if there are enough voters to elect them.

I thought America wasn't great, and therefore it needed to be made as great as it was at some unspecified point in the past? Presumably when women and coloreds weren't so uppity.

Trumpsters are all mighty touchy about criticism of their hero, huh? One of the more obvious manifestations of their insanity is the way they have to blame it on Hillary... Not on the masterful con job Trump did on their heads... If he were selling Arizona oceanfront, they'd be buying it.

He is, Maricopa county is an island in a sea of brown skin deplorables, the governor is equally batshit crazy and, no one else in the State has a say in anything.

I found some of Hillary's qualifications:
• Flunked the D.C. Bar Exam.

• Was removed from her House Judiciary Committee staffer job because of incompetence and lying.


• The Whitewater scandal.

• Married a serial liar and cheater, who occasionally had sexual encounters with non-consenting partners.

• Lied about “sniper fire” in an attempt to simulate exposure to danger in a war zone.

Is dodging the draft a pre-requisite for being president because trump was quite proficient at it. Then when he had a a disagreement with mccain he said the senator was not a war hero despite him spending ~5 years in a POW camp during which time trump was dodging the draft and mccain was being tortured by the viet cong/NVA. Because that's how much of a petty, disrespectful little man the donald is.

Do you think a draft dodger is fit to be the commander in chief of the US armed forces?

Obviously. Both Billy Bob & Dubya won at that game, each in their own way. So did I & many others. The war was extremely unpopular simply because it was wrong.

OTOH, only Trump has attacked a man who served & suffered valiantly. He also attacked a gold star family. The fact that millions of veterans voted for him anyway tells us just how screwed up conservative headsets have become.

Hey don't do that too me. I am trying to amuse myself...... :) Actually I know a guy. Well he was...one of my friends step mums dad. :) He served prison time as a conscientious objector when he refused to fight in vietnam after being drafted.

We had the draft here too.

I am not anti Trump, but he was not the best choice for office. I am anti Clinton. She was the worst choice. Trump makes mistakes and everyone knows. Hillary makes mistakes and she hides her tracks with lots of lies and deception.

These are the thoughts of a horribly uninformed human.

I could say the same to you. Almost all politicians are corrupt. Hillary is not above it. She is one of the worst.

Hillary is corrupt? Please explain the corruption she is involved in. I look forward to reading your debunked Republican talking points.

Fascinating to see how close minded statists are. The SJW champions are the least.

Granted some of these are not corruption they are just wrong doings.
1. She had advance notice of a CNN town hall question from Donna Brazile during the debate.

2. She had a private email server and deleted 30,000 emails instead of handing them over. Her former staffer Brian Fallon was in contact with DOJ about this issue.

3. She said she sometimes needs a public and private position on topics

4. She referred to Catholics as “severely backwards”

5. Individuals singled out for audits during the administration included Clinton paramours Gennifer Flowers and Liz Ward Gracen, sexual assault accusers Paula Jones and Juanita Broaddrick, fired White House Travel Office Director Billy Dale and attorney Kent Masterson Brown. Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, an outspoken critic of both Bill and Hillary Clinton, said he was audited three times during the Clinton presidency. A 1996 survey by the Washington Times could not identify a single liberal public policy organization that had been audited during the entire Clinton administration

6. The Clintons tried to take $190,00 in furnishing from the White House

7. During their time in the White House, the Clintons also reportedly auctioned off and sold taxpayer-financed government goods and services in exchange for political campaign contributions and personal profit. Among the items sold by the Clintons, which Judicial Watch uncovered in various lawsuits, and the media and Congress in their investigations, were: 1) seats on overseas trade missions; 2) export licenses for high technology sales to communist China and elsewhere; 3) commissionerships and judgeships; 4) rides on Air Force One; 5) overnight stays in the White House’s Lincoln Bedroom; 6) graves at Arlington Cemetery; 7) meetings with key Clinton-Gore administration leaders; and other favors.

8. The Clinton duo was involved in a scandal known as “Filegate” in which they illegally obtaining FBI files on perceived adversaries, most of whom served in previous Republican administrations. In 1994, federal investigators subpoenaed Hillary’s billing records from her days as a partner in the Rose Law firm during the Watergate scandal. The White House said it didn’t have the 115 pages of files. While Hillary claimed she had a minor role in the affair, the Washington Examiner reported that “when the records mysteriously turned up in the White House in 1996, they showed she met repeatedly with key figures in the scandal.”

9. In March 1994, it was revealed Hillary – with no previous experience – had made massive profits from cattle futures trading between 1978 and 1979, when Bill Clinton’s salary as Arkansas attorney general had been modest. She reportedly made $99,537 in profit on a $1,000 investment (a 9,987 percent profit) in just nine months because of a highly placed connection at Tyson Foods, which was the largest employer in Arkansas and a big Clinton donor. The New York Times reported: “During Mr. Clinton’s tenure as Governor, Tyson benefited from several state decisions, including favorable environmental rulings, $9 million in state loans, and the placement of company executives on important state boards. …

How does that make her corrupt or even wrong? Did she ask donna to give her this info? Are the town hall questions secretive? Do you think had she not been told about the questions she would have been unprepared to answer it?

2. She had a private email server and deleted 30,000 emails instead of handing them over. Her former staffer Brian Fallon was in contact with DOJ about this issue.

Incorrect. Her emails were deleted by a third party and were deleted only because they weren't work related according to a third party. They were also deleted before Congress requested her server.

3. She said she sometimes needs a public and private position on topics

Which is true, she just had the honesty to say it. Do you think trump doesn't do exactly the same thing? And he's not even a politician.

4. She referred to Catholics as “severely backwards”

This is a new one to me but I'd hardly call it corrupt and I'm willing to bet your outrage about this is about as fake as most religions;)

What does the IRS, an independent institution have to do with Hillary? WND? LOL

6. The Clintons tried to take $190,00 in furnishing from the White House

Did they take it?

7.

And the results of those investigations were what? Again, WND. LOL

More conspiracy theories?

That last one does seem shady so I guess one for nine ain't bad.

Lol
