Bill Clinton on Senator Sanders - Election 2016

The New York Times: Reports on the following remarks by former President, Bill Clinton, " The former president, addressing a few hundred supporters at a junior high school here, portrayed his wife’s opponent for the Democratic nomination as hypocritical, “hermetically sealed” and dishonest.  "

Lets Get Real:

The former President has a nerve, talking about honesty, he shamed the US for over year before admitting he had an affair with a White House intern.   The truth only came out after the Clintons had poll tested when it was the best time to come clean.   On the other hand if you really love someone, e.g Bill and Hillary you have to a duty to tell them they are NOT great political candidates.    As this blog has stated, it will support HRC over Sanders, Trump or Cruz, but it has to be honest, it has NO fondness for HRC, thinks the truth and HRC are not that connected and worse, she is bloody bad candidate, you can see her mind moving to cover any political risk.   Lets hope the New Hampshire voters come to their senses and vote for HRC, please,  on the Republican side, this blog would be quite happy to support Rubio, Kasich or Bush, they are moderate and just might make great Presidents. 

Hillary Clinton the pragmatic Candidate - Election 2016

Telegraph - US Politics Live: Reports in its 8.35pm post the following, " Mrs Clinton's basic pitch was that Mr Sanders wants to start over and build a revolution that will never come, while she wants to build on the legacies of her husband and Barack Obama. "

Lets Get Real:

Selling the past is not easy, if your 2nd term President and facing re-election you use your record to show what you will do in the future, a open seat election, when there is no President or Vice President running its harder, you have POTUS in the White House that you want to keep happy, on the other hand you want to show what you will do in the future.  Youngers voters do not care about the past, thus the problem faced by HRC, they want to talk about the future, and Sanders is about the future, while Clinton wants to be your friendly bank manager, most people do not have a debt that is in the trillions, you would sack you bank manager if your bank was that much in debt.   The HRC Campaign has made store that they have a firewall in the Southern States, lets hope that this holds up after NH. 

Third Party Candidate for the 2016 Election

Guardian - US Politics Live: Reports in its 9.23pm post the following, " Billionaire media titan and former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has stated for the first time that he is considering a run for the White House. "

Lets Get Real:

Another billionaire, for goodness sake, but least Michael Bloomberg is a moderate, and is anti guns, and pro Western economic system.   The question is does he stand a chance hell of getting elected, he has the money, his record as Mayor of New York after 9/11.   It depends if the Democrats and the Republicans go over the cliff with the nomination of either Sanders or Trump/Cruz.   It could be argued that the two party system needs a good challenge, let's see what happens after New Hampshire. 

Hillary Clinton's WOMEN problem - Election 2016

BBC News: Reports " "There's a special place in hell for women who don't help each other," says former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. The comment was supposed to help Hillary Clinton but it has also exposed her problem appealing to women voters. "

Lets Get Real:

Hillary Clinton has a problem with younger voters, on the whole they do not like her and worse do not trust her, and stump speech about being the 1st female President TELLS voters more about her that their problems.   After the race is over it will be interesting to see studies on why male and female voters in large numbers are supporting a SOCIALIST for President, and in his 70s.   The dream of being rich in America no longer plays true, from the perspective of younger voters the system is rigged by the rich for the rich, and since 2008 the US Government is on the hook for any banking failures, thus the bankers become rich what ever the way it goes, the young get thrown off a cliff, one could use a stronger term but this blog is not Donald Trump.  Lets see the breakdown of the youth vote after the New Hampshire vote.
