    Short-term Senator? Kinda like Hussein Obama? That didn’t work out.
    She’s a woman? What if the GOP runs a woman against her?
    Secretary of State? The last Secretary of state to become President was James Buchanan. He sat there while the Civil War started.

    Pecking order comes first, second and third. Everyone outside of the club med for favoritism are just a tax resource with scant chance for status mobility.

    What was Hillary Clinton's main accomplishment of Secretary of State? What would you say was her main accomplishment as Senator from New York. Just name one major bill she introduced or co sponsored. I think this says it all

    I don't think any of that matters. What does is the ability to create or helm a preexisting well-oiled political money and graft machine. That has been the whole truth of American politics at all levels post Huey Long. Whoever can do that, and look good enough on camera doing it, will be the POTUS. Parties are an illusion, machine is all. Mob rule is thus, pure democracy is such. Julius Caesar was probably born sometime in the last five years, and due to technology, could reign for over a hundred... or a thousand. The prospect of tyranny in the emergent tech world is quite a different concept than it was in the 50 year lifespan world. The world mob awaits its thousand year imperator.

    That was an excellent video clip. All those lib talking heads wondering what Hilary has done of any significance other than take up space, and Chuck Todd has to make up some empty but wordy excuse that Hilary "works behind the scenes".

    Some cows are sacred. Others are rounded up and destroyed, and the rancher is surrounded by Clinton era style ATF enforcers (rehired for use with BLM)

    Hillary was great at introducing bills but her track record of getting them passed was poor at best

    337 bills introduced, 46 or 13.7% of which went to committee, and 2 of which became law. In comparison Diane Feinstein averages 6 bills per term becoming law

    The 2 bills she actually sponsored that passed?

    S.1241 - A bill to establish the Kate Mullany National Historic Site in the State of New York, and for other purposes.

    S.3613 - A bill to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 2951 New York Highway 43 in Averill Park, New York, as the "Major George Quamo Post Office Building".

    why so many bills introduced and so few make it to committee or become law?. Just my opinion here but seems she lacks organizational skills and is poor at rallying support for her ideas

    What you're describing is actually the tyranny of the minority, not the tyranny of the majority.

    Special interests and elites are the minority, but they wield influence over the masses.

    Mob rule is more akin to some of the political movements in the Arab Spring.

    In effect, we have quite the opposite of "pure democracy" and rather an elitist oligarchy.

    The fact that voter turnout usually hovers around 50% should indicate that it's really not about mob rule. The mob is halfway apathetic.

    Instead, we've got a plutocracy.

    Couldn't disagree more unless by elitist oligarchy you are referring to the illicit expansion of the executive branch in the 20th century to date, and to the explosion of bureaucracies and hyperregulation. Our Washington government and its true constituency of graft buyers and dependents run this country, and that is the only "elitist oligarchy" in sight. It requires a dependent beneficiary mob vote to grow, so still qualifies as mob rule.

    Half of the dependents don't even vote to begin with, and who they vote for is determined by the elites you mention.

    If the candidates themselves are the puppets of the elite, then yes, that is most certainly a matter of oligarchy.

    An illusion of choice defines oligarchy.

    I don't think either Bachman nor Palin have shown any interest in running for the White House again.

    considering that with Reid's law firm being linked to Chinese Solar interests and Obama's punting of the keystone pipeline because of Tom Steyers contribution promises it's pretty obvious who is running the Democratic party

    The American public electing Hillary Clinton will provide the Angry White Guys with a seamless transition from bellywhinging about the first non-white president in 220 years to bellywhinging about the first non-guy president in 228!

    The point to consider is, if she is nominated, she'll be running against a Republican, and there isn't really a Republican in this country who has a main accomplishment, is there?

    The radio gasbags have given their lackeys the "inexperienced" theme:

    "Hey! It isn't as if she had almost served one term as governor of a sparsely-populated state from which you can actually see Russia!"

    What do you think the MSM's brief "Ban Bossy" campaign was about?

    Battlespace preparation.

    I did not think up "Bossy" to describe The Impeached One's wife, but I wish I did. It fits like a glove and sticks like Super-Glue.

    There's that, but honestly, big banking runs both parties. So does the military industrial complex.

    yeah sadly enough. Politics is less real than pro wrestling and 99% of America is dumb enough to think that their party of choice really gives a rats ass about their lives once the vote is cast. Let me rephrase that, 99% of the world. America does not have a monopoly on political partisans and greedy politicians willing to sell their souls for 30 pieces of silver

    Speaking of conspiracies, I would not be surprised if it was found that Chelsea's pregnancy was planned to give Hillary more likability as a Grandmother! The timing is suspicious, and no one should put anything past the scummy Clintons.

    I'm no fan of the Clinton's but Chelsea's fertility clock was ticking loudly. She's 34, not the teenager we saw at the 1996 Democratic Convention. If she wants kids, now is the time to get with the program.

    I didn't realize she was that old, and your point is well taken, but my opinion still remains.
