    I tend to agree. I'd still like to draft Mike Bloomberg, though.

      I can totally understand your frustration with politics, but the next POTUS will likely appoint 2 Supreme Court Justices. It's really important to get involved if you want the country heading in any particular direction, even if you don't love everything about a candidate.

        I would be unlikely to vote for the party you want in that case. My vote is better lost.

          Thanks, I guess? I think it's really important to get as many people voting as possible. The country works best that way. If we had a high turnout and the country went in a different direction than I wanted, at least I'd know that's what an actual majority of people wanted instead of just a vocal few, you know?

              Maybe my opinion will change once we get closer to the election, but tbh I used to be very politically active and now I'm just not. I voted in every election I could from the time I was 18. I have voted both republican and democrat. Recently, I have been tossing my vote to the Green Party.

                I was s fan as you know, but I now believe she is corrupt. I'm so disappointed in her. I could never vote for her again. And if you remember, I cried when she didn't get the nomination.

                  I definitely agree things will crystalize closer to the election. I hope someone emerges you can support!

                  I want Bernie but am concerned he won't hold up to a republican due to (in my opinion) unfounded fears about democratic socialism. We'll see.

                    Trump and his campaign makes me feel like I need to shower.

                      I also won't vote for Clinton. I think the military is too much against her, and with as much as we have going on militarily right now, we need someone whom the troops can at least not hate with such a passion. I am also torn... When I take the "I side with" quiz, it turns up Bernie Sanders. However, I think that he would just make the tea party republicans dig in further. I think the only way to break up their power at this point is to force them to quit acting like victims/a minority with a chip on their shoulder. If... And I know it's a big if... A moderate republican could be elected for one term, I think we'd see them fall apart in a way that won't happen with a democratic president. So I'll probably just end up doing what I did last election and throw my vote at a third party candidate in hopes that whoever wins doesn't do so with a decisive victory so they have to work with the other party (ha).

                        "one of those" quizzes aligned me with Marco Rubio

                        I actually know a lot of Bernie Sanders fans and while much of what he advocates for sounds awesome, I don't think he actually has a plan to put any of it in place. One of the most surreal things I've seen lately is Bill Maher grilling Bernie Sanders on how he would actually implement what he is running on.

                        I don't participate in primary politics (not registered with any party) and I mostly find Facebook political posts completely annoying...I'm mostly avoiding it all until there are 2-3 frontrunners and we are 6 months out.

                        What annoys me the most? The electoral college. Then I feel like my vote would actually count.

                          Go democratic ticket. Whoever gets the nomination gets my vote. I'm very much team Hillary though. She has the most foreign policy experience and is best for the job IMO.

                            My biggest gripe is the primaries. I know it would be chaotic, but I think they all need to be on the same day. Too many options are eliminated before some states get a chance to vote.

                                I have no clue right now, but I wondered if Trump was a republican plant to make the other candidates look less extreme. I feel like we're all being punked.
