There must be someone out there who isn't the worst posible choice:
Hilary (too much baggage, and after hearing her nails-on-chalkboard voice on TV every day for four years, there might be voters' remorse). 
Would make for very interesting late-might TV monolgues, though.
Trump: Inbred piece of horse dung, and his clueless comments about John McCain(when Trump himself got no closer to the military than one of those Richie Rich private schools that pretends it West Point for teens) add to the reasons to drop him.
Every other Republican not named Bush: As Seinfeld would say, Who ARE these PEOPLE?
(True, we already know a lot of them, we just don't want to).
Bernie ('F** people who make money') Sanders: Everybody wishes Elizabeth Warren were running, and Sanders is basically the male version of her. Will that 'Let's incite the villagers to storm the castles with torches and pitchforks' approach to populism actually work?

ok, let me edit that - i personally remember it seemed like the economy was doing well...or at least i was.  i mean, i was young, barely into politics at all, and didnt/dont really know shit about what was really going on, but it SEEMED like things were pretty good when he was in office for maybe 6 of 8 yrs?
am i wrong? im ok with being wrong.

Clinton was the beneficiary of the Dot Com boom (bubble) that burst after he left office and a Republican Congress that forced him to balance the budget.

I would prefer the Republican candidate to be either Scott Walker, Rick Perry, Marco Rubio or John Kasich.

The only Democrat I would consider voting for is Jim Webb.

I think Trump should show us he's really, really serious by taking a trip to the nearest barber and having that Tribble on his head restored to a more human configuration.

How could we trust a man to be President when even his HAIR is lying to us!

Trump, from the French tromper, to deceive, delude, mislead, dupe, cozen, cheat, baffle, etc.

Yeah, yeah, the etymology is false, but also true.

Maybe Trump and his hair have a symbiotic relationship.  The question is which one is actually in control.

I imagine those skilled in PhotoShop could easily change the party name.

The strangest comments I have seen so far are are from people saying they will vote for him because the staff at a Trump hotel was so nice. There are also a growing number of comments calling Trump an American patriot. I suppose he feels strongly about the country, but I question his point of view on many issues.

Trump is so much of a patriot, he even imports his wives from foreign countries!
