[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 20349, member: 35"] I can understand and even respect that argument. At least you're not trying to convince me that Hillary's political career is flawless. Still, I personally feel compelled to vote for the candidate I believe in the most. I certainly don't disagree with you about Trump. However, the emails released by Wikileaks reveal that the Hillary campaign helped promote his candidacy. Regarding the Republican candidates, they said "We don't want to marginalize the more extreme candidates, but make them more "Pied Piper" candidates who actually represent the mainstream of the Republican Party." The candidates they referred to specifically were Ted Cruz, Ben Carson, and Donald Trump. They also said in the email that “We need to be elevating the Pied Piper candidates so that they are leaders of the pack and tell the press to take them seriously." Anyone fearful of a Trump presidency can thank the Clinton Campaign for pushing to legitimize his candidacy. Ironically, this is the same Democratic Party that undermined Bernie Sanders by scheduling the debates to compete with football, threatened to attack his religious views, referred to his supporters as sexist "Bernie bros," and so on. Even Jill Stein asked "If Dem elites cared about stopping Trump, why sabotage a candidate who'd beat him easily? Is their own power & privilege more important?" The answer to that question, of course, is yes. Hillary may win, but she and the DNC are responsible for bringing us to the brink of a Trump presidency. [/QUOTE]
