I want Hillary to run for President in 2020! Yeah, seriously!
If blasphemy was possible on a secular website, inhabited mainly by Bitter Berners, this would be a cardinal sin. My excommunication from the congregation may be vitiated by the following explanation.
In a recent diatribe, about deflection, comment was made about the reflection of a reflection showing nothing but the reflected reflections. This raised very existential thoughts, which overwhelmed my reptilian brain. My basic thought pattern is "eat when you're hungry, then sleep till the next time you're hungry". This has always made a lot of sense to me because the idea of having a J.O.B. is very abhorrent. Keeping schedules, doing productive work, getting paid, paying taxes, etc. has always seemed like a monumental waste of time. I am very happy in my Swamp and deeply resent it when some critters, which are inedible, try to intrude upon my place of repose.
One such critter, known to many as the Clinton Creature, keeps trying to impinge upon my territory by bringing a whole entourage of equally indigestible companions with her to befoul the waters. Lady, if anybody is going to foul the waters, it's gonna be me.
But the CC has no equal in terms of foulness. I, utilizing all 30,000 of my neurons, have come across an ingenious plan. It is no less than eliminating the CC from my Swamp and from all other Swamps. This plan takes both foresight and a knowledge of history. A sub-variety of home sap, known as Democrats, have very little of both, giving me the upper paw in carrying out my plan. Now, c99ers, please do not reject this plan a priori because as alligators go, I am one of the smarter ones. Want proof? I am not a Democrat.
Many of this community, at least those of you who have not deigned to dive into the swamp, would think that such an accomplishment difficult, if not impossible. But, no! Like judo, one takes advantage of the opponent's moves to destabilize and weaken the opponent. We have seen the lifestyle of the CC up close and far too personal; but we have learned her limited repertoire of moves.
The mirror analogy: nothing reflecting nothing or a tidy waste of photons. But the following elucidation of the image posted in the above-mentioned article, reveals the true nature of the reflectant (a word that I just made up):
Aware of her insatiable lust for power, and whatever else she can grab on the side, it should be apparent to all those who observe, that the CC is preparing for another charge at the Presidency. She has many acolytes ready, willing, and able to do her bidding:
Yet the faithful do not seem to grasp the realities of a stellar (choke!) candidate's performance in the field of battle.
Her brave rallying cry "I'm not Trump" energized at least a third of the Democratic base to vote for her. The other two-thirds were not so enthused but a few of them did fall in line. This led many on to Greener pastures or remain in the comfort of their foreclosed homes. The wayward have not yet returned to the flock (see illustration above). It is also evident that True-Blue-Democrats have not learned to count higher than 3. Here is a rudimentary math lesson for them:
Please do not discount the efforts of the following medical team to resuscitate the CC. Their talents are well-known: from the sandbars of southern Florida comes chief conspirator, Debbie Deplorable. From the steamy jungles comes Donna Brazile-nut. A newcomer to the repair team is Tom "everything is gonna be okay" Perez. They have labored mightily to revive the CC, although the results are still incomplete. In doctor talk, the prognosis is guarded. Signs of life are being detected from the corpus unmortis. Rumors are that she limped to the starting line in the race for Mayor of Gotham but collapsed before the arrival. Darn!
We do have an updated report of the physical rehabilitation work in progress, brought to us by CNN:
THE SERIOUS PART
Why do I want Medusa to run again is quite simple. She wasted $1,400,000,000 of donor money in her colossal losing effort. These banker-types, seeing no likely return on investment, would be most unlikely to shell out more bucks on a loser like Medusa. Of course, George Soros could front her the billion (pocket change for that Nazi-lover). I doubt that many big donors are going to go all in--or even partway in for her next effort. This means that her next campaign will be underfunded compared to 2016, a campaign which still lost miserably.
The HillBots do not know how to deal well with disagreement (although Claire McCaskill is learning how to beg from Berniecrats--good luck with that). The non-Hillary voters are sexist, racist, fascist, homophobic, Bros and chicks looking for guys. Words of endearment applied to all not in her sphere of influence--a sphere which is rapidly atrophying.
Medusa is now LESS POPULAR than Trump--can you believe that! So the second worst candidate for President has now become the worst candidate for President (as if most of us didn't already know). Any remaining Democrats with least bit of progressivism/New Dealism will absolutely resist (rhymes with persist) the Evil Queen gaining any semblance of legitimate power.
Thus the large number of those who have already abandoned the Blue Team, never to return, will have their numbers augmented by those remnants who can not stomach a massive loser jousting windmills. Thus divided, the already shrinking Dumbocratic Party will be split even more. Should Hillary run for President in 2020, I WELCOME IT! This will mean the final collapse of the Blue Imposter Party. Then let us fervently hope AND work for a viable Progressive third party, whatever name it might have.

I agree that a third Presidential run by Clinton
will indeed be the final nail in the Democratic Party's coffin. I'm still not sure if that's a good thing or not...

. . . the D party has been the Clinton crime family's private doormat. Back in '93, I was saying that a party that can't defend itself from these blood-sucking, shape-shifting grifters is a party that deserves to die. Better 2018 than 2020, but die it eventually will.

Hopefully, the party would have to stick its finger

If the DNC could believe we would come back to the fold this could actually work. I would re-register as a D in a heartbeat if I thought I could help "poison pill" their operation, but really are they that gullible? Really!, could they be stupid enough to think the Clinton Creature™ is actually electable.
YES!
I've seen lots of changes. What doesn't change is people. Same old hairless apes.

The one snag is that Chelsea is now being touted as
and up-and-coming figure. On CBS This Morning pundit Charlie Rose happily announced that Chelsea was in the studio. She was there to discuss her tweets. Take that, Donald Trump!
I have to admit that I didn't watch the interview as I'm an old lady and don't want to waste what time I have remaining to me. However, It's obvious that the Clintons will not go down easily. It looks like they will drag things out as long as they have spawn to push on the American people with the complicity of willing pundits and shills.

Hillary can not legitimately win the primaries
And it would be hard for Hillary and the DNC to successfully cheat again since so many people are wiser now. On the other hand, maybe Trump will pull a Bill Clinton and try to talk Hillary into running so that Trump can beat her again.
I hope people chuck the labels that are used to herd the sheep. We could do so much if we did that.
Beware the bullshit factories.
I think that if the DNC will rig the primaries if they want to.
They are that arrogant.

Perhaps another run will finally help people get over whatever hopes and potential delusions they may have about the Democratic Party.
The millenials were hated upon as being ignorant and should have voted harder, that you can't rely on them...good, don't, hopefully more and more leave to greener (heh) pastures.
On one hand, having her run yet again...ugh man don't know if I could stomach that. Jeez. Ugh.
It may be difficult a 3rd time around to try and manufacture consent on her being appealing to the public eye.
Maybe $3B will do it.

Sorry, can't stomach the conclusion.
No member of my generation, that would be the bumbling boomers, should ever ever be entrusted with the presidency, a cabinet position, governorship or senate seat, always excepting our guy Bernie, again. There are useful things we can be doing, like planting pollinator friendly flowers all about our neighborhoods and supporting local farms, and tutoring kids who can't read and sharing free veges from our gardens, but no more high office.

Thank you for the nice compliment
Personally, this is my favored solution:
Hmm...
I might even consider donating to a Clinton run in 2020. I'd like to see her and the whole Clinton Cabal get stomped into the ground once and for all.
edg, be sure to send her $27.
If they do, they need a new theme song.
I mean, what could possibly sum up the Establishment Dems, with their media telling them how there's no way they could possibly lose...

@detroitmechworks
Do you suppose that a vocorder would help with Clinton's Corn-Crake Creak? Although they do seem to be doing something to soften her voice now, in her latest remakes; probably using someone else's, or getting her to pretend she's talking to her donors.

Question is, how much power does the President really have?
Hillary is a more dangerous war hawk than Trump. There's good reason to fear armageddon at her hands--and I don't use the term casually.
However, as the expulsion of Michael Flynn shows, it's not like the President exactly runs things. As the refusal of the Pentagon to observe Obama's Syrian ceasefire shows, it's far from clear the the President is in charge of the military. So maybe it doesn't matter who's in the Presidency.
If it *does* matter, then I can't be behind a Hillary run, not even for the much-desired goal of killing off the Democratic Party. Now that DHS runs our elections, I feel pretty sure the vote will be whatever Hillary and her backers want it to be, seeing as how she's got both the Clinton and Bush factions solidly behind her. So if she runs, she'll probably get what she wants. If I could be sure that nuclear armageddon wouldn't result from a Hillary win, I'd be entirely with you: Hillary being finally forced down the electorate's throat would, like an emetic, finally make the American political structure vomit the Democratic party into the nearest toilet.

I agree with all but the second paragraph
Barack, for all his hawkishness is a sniveling, lying coward. If Harry Truman or Eisenhower were president, those military assholes who broke the Syrian cease fire would have been fired at the very least. Remember what Truman did to that egomaniac Macarthur. Old corncob was the highest ranking general in the US when he got the boot. Good thing too, Mac wanted to take the war to the Chinese.
@Cant Stop the Macedonian Signal
I've been thinking that they're probably saving the nukes for Hillary's Homeland-Secured-run, as a special treat for Her, having to wait for Her Turn for so long and all. And she hardly needs encouragement to run unopposed.
What's needed is such a landslide for a third party (you may discover a feasible one gaining prominence shortly, certainly before the next Presidential election, I should think - otherwise, we're definitely fried and out of time) that it cannot possibly be plausibly faked, following solid massive divestment and boycotts of criminal corporations by the people, in order to weaken them while it's still possible to do so.
This is the final looting phase for them, and once we're drained and the ecology they're murdering becomes too damaged to ever again support life (quite likely within a few years, or earlier, even just at the rate they're killing off pollinators) the last glove comes off as the slated increases in to-be-unregulated industrial pollution and the diminishing oxygen supply will rapidly begin to show obvious global effects while the die-off completes.
If certain factions aren't deliberately killing off life as quickly as possible, they're giving a damn good imitation of it.
Never vote for evil again!

You are of course right - the legal system has been subjected to a great deal of corruption, including atrocious legal precedent/'law' passed against the public interest in many areas. And I'm hoping that such plans as those of which you speak have been/are being worked out.

Th military and gendarmerie did not mutiny but they did not
@Alligator Ed In this case,
In short, if the people were to revolt, the people would need at least some of the military to defend them, otherwise it would be a massacre. And I don't make assumptions in any direction about who would decide to do what in that extremity. All in all, it's a pretty terrible idea, which is why everyone's been trying to avoid thinking along those lines. There's also the fact that the establishment is probably salivating at the idea of armed revolt, which would play into their hands in multiple ways.
I hope it doesn't come to that.
