You are a liberal, one of the best ones I know on this board.So you fault Hillary for acting on the intelligence that we all had at that time? I won't fault any Congressmen for voting for the Iraq War. I would have. It was a horrendous blunder, and it was all started off by a warmongering administration. Dick Cheney is a war criminal. He used a major terror incident on American soil to parley a war.

Take for instance her dream act idea, allowing the parents of children of illegal immigrants to be granted citizenship. A prime example; That idea is very costly, I agree that they should be allowed the path to citizenship, not to be given citizenship just cause the mother gave birth to a child on U.S soil.
The DREAM Act was introduced by a Republican (Orrin Hatch of all people) in 2001 and is exactly a path to citizenship. It doesn't grant anyone citizenship. It would stop them from being deported just because 'Murrica. It came about when the Republican Tag Line was "Compassionate Conservatives." You are so uninformed about what you're talking about, it's silly.

Trump on the other hand I oppose fully, I'm just not willing to throw my support Hillary based on a lot of her ideas.
She's supported by money. Yes. That is a legitimate concern. I agree with your concern.
If you are a socially liberal person, she supports 95% of the issues that matter to you.
I want to ask you some questions, Sterben. You have a tendency to duck and run as soon as anyone challenges any point you've made. So hopefully you'll actually engage this time.
1) Specifically what direction do you want this country to go?
2) Which of the policies that Hillary supports do you not support?
3) Which ideas of Hillary's do you oppose?
4) Why do you question whether Hillary is a liberal?
5) What makes you think risking a Trump presidency is worth it?
Question one:Specifically what direction do you want this country to go?
A: I would like to see America become less of a corrupt country. A place were people can be become educated without become a financial slave to the system, and too be able to support themselves and their family's. A country to were one can retirement is obtainable by everyone, not just the higher classes and the elites. A country that rebelled and freed themselves from big banks and corrupt practices that lobbyist implement. My final closing statement on this question; our military and politicians, those who have committed and gave authorization to commit these war crimes through the decades. We has the citizens of the U.S.A need to hold all these people accountable for their actions. Now to the dismantling of the N.S.A, and reducing the power that C.I.A and the F.B.I has in the country. These groups have been out of control for a too long now, they need to be put back in check on what they can and can't do.
Question five: I would gamble on a possible Trump presidency on the basis of, "You let him move in, and he trashed the house." The power in that statement is worth it alone when things get bad. Has an added bonus, will be able to rid our selves him from our society when he convicted of crimes against humanity. I'm willing to stand a year or two of him being commander and chief to see that trial go down.
The rest of your questions I'll get back to you tomorrow on, I do have work in the A.M and it's already late.
