Honestly, what it comes down to is choosing the lesser of two evils, which is still choosing evil. I don't feel that any of the candidates are legitimately capable of running this country successfully.I personally do not want anyone to be our president who comes up as a "Television Personality" when you google them (Well maybe some exceptions). I also am afraid he stop or even take back the social progressiveness our country has been seeing. I am more in favor of Bernie Sanders, who seems to have very good ideas while being (and has been for many years) socially progressive.
I think it is worth noting though is that he isn't just very good with ideas, so are many others. What distinguishes him is he is talking how he will do it, and not slamming people or deflecting. He gets down to business and recognizes he can't do it all.I personally do not want anyone to be our president who comes up as a "Television Personality" when you google them (Well maybe some exceptions).

Absolutely. I am a huge Bernie fan who could go on forever, so I was trying to not do that. I especially like that he is already introducing his presidential ideas to congress. For anyone interested in his views I suggest www.FeelTheBern.org it is easy to use and shows you his stances.
Great name for a website
I personally find Bernie Sanders, Rand Paul, and Carly Fiorina to my looking.

It doesn't even matter who it is. There's too much partisanship to get anything done. Sanders recognizes that and says that not only do you need to vote him in but vote the right people into Congress too.Once anyone is president they receive hate for both whatever problems are left from the previous president as well as what they (the new president) could have done better once they get to work.

Also, even if the president wants to do something, there's always the opposite political party blocking them from achieving it, calling out flaws in the plan, poking holes in their judgement, making insults about them, the usual.
And none of this is just limited to Obama's presidency. This has been a problem before, just not as big, obvious, and widespread as it is today. If Trump is elected president, he's ticked off enough of the wrong people that he may become a target for assassination in the near future.
The 2016 election really is a choice between the lesser of two evils, even more so with the nuclear threat posed by Russia, China, and North Korea.
I'm not really into politics but with all of this in mind I'd like to see Bernie give it a shot.
