George H. W. Bush was a two term vice president, director of the CIA, etc.
I've been following this election pretty closely for more than a year, and I seriously couldn't tell you what Clinton's positive message is besides "I'm experienced". Nobody cares. Americans don't elect technocratic planks of wood. This is the worst, most inept presidental campaign I've ever seen. She's very nearly losing to a joke candidate.

- adamrezich 10y agoIt's really interesting to hear you say that, actually, because from my perspective, she had two positive messages: - "I'm experienced" - "I'm a woman, and it's high time a woman became President" It's interesting that her campaign has finally stopped beating us over the head with the latter, at least; it was insultingly sexist.
- peu4000 10y agoIt's insultingly sexist to suggest that 51% of the population should finally have representation in the highest office in America?
- devopsproject 10y agoIf a man said that he deserved a job over a woman on the basis of gender, it would be sexist (and wrong). The reverse is also true.
- stonetear 10y agoThe only reason she was able to become a senator is because her husband was president. The hypocracy is palpable.
