Ex-Governor of the state of maryland from 2007-2015.  He did pretty well as the governor, no big complaints.

Bernie Sanders is shades of Ron Paul. Same loud minority (overrepresented on the internet) completely convinced he's the second coming of Jesus, but watch him fail spectatularly in the primaries. No one who is not beholden to one of the two major parties can achieve anything by running for presidential election except weaken one of the sides. In fact I'm pretty sure that it's in the best interest of one of the parties to build as much hype as possible for Sanders, make his accolytes nice and dissilusioned with the process once the primaries are done and unwilling to vote for the person who defeated "their" candidate. Same shit that happened with Ron Paul fanatics.

By "being realistic" you mean playing the second order beauty contest.

Everybody knows he will be obliterated at primaries. Nevertheless, elections aren't only about who gets elected. They are also about making a large scale opinion poll. For the voters, voting for fringe candidates is a statement much stronger than any opinion poll considering it comes at the cost of deciding who gets elected. You don't even have to look outside of France to learn that both big parties became scared shitless of a fringe party within what, ten years? That is a reality despite the fact that said party still has basically no chance to win the next presidentials. It's much better to vote for someone who represents your own position better and cares more about your issues. To a degree, of course. In a traditional bipartite, doing that gives an incentive to least one of the dominant parties to listen to what you want. If you just vote for one so that the other doesn't get elected, you'll get shit on continuously.

Agree w/ everything except the internet fanaticism for Sanders is larger than Paul's was, I believe.  2008 was a long time ago.  Can't remember if he ran again in 2012.  Did he?  Anyway, I would vote for him if he beat Hillary w/o any issues.  Hillary is a horrible person and a champagne socialist.

The only candidates who are able to think rationally are maybe Rand Paul and Hillary Clinton

If it ends up Hillary vs Bush race ... I lose my faith in the american system.

Sure sign of imminent decline when the only two candidates you can pull out of the hat is relatives of former presidents.

Like 3rdworld countries...

Hillary is not a person you want at the helm of the Juggernaugt ... but the alternatives looks horrible.. lose-loseproposition imo.

Corrupt, You pay me, I give you American Power as president(amongst other things, but this is the most recent option). And it's not the typical corporation paying her, it's entire foreign nations(For example, Russia was one of them).

Also, if you loved Obama, she's pretty much Obama Steroids.

I am no expert on american politics.. the negative i can see is that she is
1. Wife of former president. Have no love for the powerhousedynasties. Weakens democracy.
2. She has been to long in politics, gotten involved in to many scandals. Her husbands affair, personal finance, deleting emails .. etc
3. She is most likly a sociopath, but that is not so uncommon at the top.
4. Her health is an issue. Stroke/blodclot in the skull in 2013 (not confirmed), uses special glasses for double vision. Physical health is one thing, has it affected her mental capacities?

Overall she will pull much support because she can become the first female president. Why the republicans could not drum up their own female candidate is beyond me. (Carly Fiorina , who ran HP to the ground was all they could come up with.)
Or atleast put some color on it.. like a latino or asian. As of now... all old white men.. or teapartycandidates.
They had 8 years to plan this.. and this is what they could come up with?

Maybe it does not matter... puppets and actors.

I am ranting sorry.
