I've bee...thanks for your comment Fireblossom. I've been there, voted third party. fortunately for me my second choice won. I probably won't do it again unless we actually ever get a third party but our political system wasn't set up that way. the problem with a third party now is that the only office they ever want to run for is president. where are the third party mayors, council members, school board members, and on up the political ladder? personally, I don't think Jill Stein is qualified. she has never held a political office in her life and I think she would be overwhelmed and ineffective. Republicans would eat her up. Hillary isn't a perfect person but no one is and she is the most honest politician out there. but she is a politician and has devoted her life to helping women and the underprivileged. as for the smoke that follows her around maybe it's because her enemies keep rubbing two sticks together hoping to start a fire. bottom line...Obama, a man who has worked with her intimately, trusts and supports her.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-57172985572102926402016-11-03T03:49:42.680-05:002016-11-03T03:49:42.680-05:00All the best!All the best!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-54843869744003811312016-11-03T01:19:13.981-05:002016-11-03T01:19:13.981-05:00best of luck for your fav best of luck for your fav bailihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06498012175058870980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-48221923308939772242016-11-02T19:22:00.790-05:002016-11-02T19:22:00.790-05:00Well said.

People say, well, that's the Republicans making stuff up, but if they could have, they would have done the same to Obama, and the best they could come up with was the stupid Muslim and birther stuff. FAIL. So, where there's that much smoke, for that many years around the Clintons, you can bet you bippy there's fire. it ain't just a question of misunderstood...<br /><br />As for Trump, he is a buffoon and florid Narcissist, not to mention misogynist and a few other choice things. <br /><br />I voted for Jill Stein absentee, and while i felt good about it at the time, I feel better about it with each passing day. If she can get just 5% of the vote, then Federal funding comes to the Greens in the next cycle. That's what those who harrumph that third party is a wasted vote don't think of. The two party system we have must change or fall, and it starts incrementally and by refusing to vote for either of these two.

People use multiple e-mail addresses ALL THE TIME!!! How many e-mail addresses do you have? I have accumulated about ten over the years - all on different servers (cable company, aol, hotmail, gmail, me, att, company, etc...). Some I use regularly, some I never use and some have been closed as my life have changed. BIG EFFING DEAL!! Security? My recollection is that the federal servers are just as susceptible to hacking as any others - so it cannot be that. Just think how outraged EVERYONE would be if we were still all using snail mail. It is a FELONY to open, read or publish private letters. How is e-mail any different?<br />2. E-mail systems AUTOMATICALLY delete old mail over time to make space available for new ones. "Automatically" as in "not done by any individual". And that is true for everyone that uses e-mail. In fact, it is considered safe practice by IT professionals. HRC did not "delete 30,000 emails". The e-mail system did - which all e-mail systems are wont to do. That's how they work. Electronic mail goes away after time... automatically. If you don't believe me, check the settings on your own e-mail accounts.Dr. Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08372450324609250667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-77149460005795369972016-11-02T10:38:42.135-05:002016-11-02T10:38:42.135-05:00Thank you for this.

Let's all pray that Trump doesn't succeed in what will be the downfall of our nation. I am so disgusted to know that half of our nation would vote for a man like Trump. It is a sad commentary. Fox news kind of people. Nothing good about him.

Rwanda has the highest concentration of seats being held by women. Like you I will vote for Hillary, and UNLESS the GOP can be removed from Congress and Senate she will get no where, sad is it not? I voted for Bernie in the Primaries, and thought he could depolarize this Nation because I knew Hillary's baggage would interfere in her ability to create any change.

She's had to work ten times as hard as any man has to achieve her position and gets vilified and tainted by the villains and tainters. Good piece here, Ellen. I agree with every word.
