I would prefer Sanders because if Pence moves forward you and other Clinton supporters are going to turn this thread in to a smoldering pile of guano, guaranteed, LOL.
I’m an Oklahoma Democrat. I liked Bernie, but I thought his ideas were too “pie-in-the-sky” to actually work. I felt, while Hillary is flawed to some degree, her ideas of what and how to get things done were more realistic.
That being said, I think I’d prefer Pence over Trump any day of the week and twice on Sundays, because at least the man is cool headed and respectable even if I disagree with him.
I pretty much agree with all of this.
Sanders could have taken Trump had he not been cheated. If Pence ran on his own for President he’d a never made it to the Primaries.
True.
I just think Sanders’ ideas, as far left as they are, would have been met with the same obstructionism in Congress as had Obama’s (though for different reasons). While Hillary, though not the ideal candidate, would be better at getting things done. Reaching across the aisle and so forth. Sure, there would be push back, but maybe not so unilaterally.
Although she truly was out of touch with why she lost (as Sanders says, to blame Comey is short sighted in the larger context). The fact that she hired Debbie after Debbie was ousted for cheating Sanders certainly shows that Hillary was out of touch with the general feeling during this election.
As Hillary said, she would have been a good president; she just wasn’t very good at running for president. Well, she apparently couldn’t figure out how to fix that or why she even needed to at the time, and that is why she was not electable.
