defective yeti: Running Down The Hill

defective yeti: Running Down The Hill

It’s not that I don’t like Clinton—I do. Honestly, I think she’s the most presidential person in the race, for either party. Some people say she’s unelectable, but I don’t believe that for a moment. And hopefully Kerry taught us the peril of nominating someone based on their supposed “electability.”

But holy smokes, I am so sick of this dynasty crap. Bush? Then Clinton? Then Bush? Then Clinton? If Hillary wins she will likely be re-elected as well; when she leaves office, this nation will have been ruled exclusively by two families for 28 straight years—an entire generation! In 2020, no one under the age of 30 will remember a time when neither a Bush or Clinton was running the joint. And you know Jeb will be waiting in the wings. What’s the point of having a democracy if we only use to to elect monarchs?

Hmm. Never thought of it that way. Maybe I’ll need to use this strategy to dissuade Democrats this year (I used, “Wait for Hillary in ‘08” during the ‘04 election season).
