E******n.
You folk in the US face a grim choice in the coming e******n and you deserve better. We watch with trepidation because we know in several ways it will affect us.I can only hope when the incumbent takes office he/she will face up to the responsibility of being the leader of the free world. There are grave problems North Korea. Iran, Putin,rampant Islam and African refugees.To turn a back on these problems could lead to the start of another world war. Good luck, cousins.

Thank you for your concern. While I am hardly happy with the prospect of a Clinton presidency, the possibility of a Trump presidency is truly appalling.
Clinton is a true child of the establishment, as such her presidency is somewhat predictable. The "sins" of which she has been accused have NOT been proven; and in the US one is assumed innocent until proven guilty. We can assume with some certainty that she would think before acting.
Trump is a wild card. A raging egomaniac, his entire life has been one long sordid saga of self-promotion and self-aggrandizement. He seems to have no "moral center," rather this "convictions" seem to alter with circumstances to better promote his "brand."
I can't help thinking, this is going to be won or lost, on the strength or weakness, of the VP. If Clinton wins, I think her health will make her stand down before long. If Trump wins, I think he's only running for egotistical reasons, and will soon lose interest once in power. I suspect he will probably stand down before he's kicked out.
The only way Trump could be more worrying would be if he starts campaigning bare chested in a rasslin' outfit.

We think Trump is just the answer, don't we? ;-)
Actually, the possibility is frightening, profoundly so!
Imagine this: "North Korea. Iran, Putin, rampant Islam and African refugees," and then add Donald J. Trump.
Yikes!!!!
Fortunately, I think his e******n is extremely remote. I pray so!
There is a lot of right-wing hatred of Hillary, uninformed, prejudiced, and hostile, but I can't think of a better candidate to deal with these issues.
John McCain?
Marco Rubio?
Chris Christie?
Jeb Bush?
Possibly John Kasich, but he's a goner already (actually they all are).
No, Hillary's the one, bet qualified to step in immediately and deal with all the issues you mention.
Ignore the right-wing noise and hatred. This isn't a beauty contest; this stuff is hard.
She can handle it.

It bears repeating, being so well expressed:
"Trump is a wild card. A raging egomaniac, his entire life has been one long sordid saga of self-promotion and self-aggrandizement. He seems to have no "moral center," rather this "convictions" seem to alter with circumstances to better promote his "brand."Bravo.

I differ. I think this will be won at the E*******l College. Dems start out with 242 e*******l v**es from states that have v**ed Democratic for the last 25 years. All that is needed is another 28 e*******l v**es, which seems pretty certain to me. Probably, she'll end up with over 300 e*******l v**es, maybe way over 300.
The possibility of Donald Trump is more than frightening, it is terrifying in the extreme. He knows nothing, but he and his supporters don't know he knows nothing.
God help us all!
"God help us all!"
I agree fully.....
I made the mistake of v****g for Obama his first run. I really thought he could do something.
Obama's second run didn't get my v**e.
Now this e******n I have no trust in anyone running.
I honestly don't what to do.
I might not even v**e.
Hillary is a liar and should be in jail.
Trump reminds me of a bully I saw in school that also has a bad temper.
Neither I feel should be our president.
Now Hilary is not well.what the blazes would happen if she had to drop out? Would that give Trump a shoo in? Oh dear.!
"Now Hilary is not well.what the blazes would happen if she had to drop out? Would that give Trump a shoo in? Oh dear.!"
Unless our X- Governor from Virginia would maybe be running.
While I will be v****g for Hillary, I must say about Trump: he is clearly too egomaniac to do much that will be good for the country and at the same time too ill informed to do real damage worldwide. Other Nations might just choose to ignore the US. The only hammer he would have is a Navy and an Air Force, but worldwide operations require International cooperation. What if other countries closed their ports and airbases to the US; where would our supply lines go. Trump is a silly choice.

You know, Brits in glass houses should not throw stones. Get your own political house in order before casting judgement on ours.

Like it or don't, you have to choose one of these two. (Forget the other two--never gonna happen.)
You may end up v****g for the least bad, but that's the decision you have to make here.
Don't take what you hear about Hillary without your own conformation--lots of baloney going around.
Personally, I'm terrified of the thought of Trump being President. I would v**e for virtually anybody else on the face of the earth first.
This man has made very clear who he is and what he is, and he Must Not Be President!
Period.
OK! OK! - I have decided that I'm going to v**e for Donald........... That would be Mr. Duck though.
