Hillary is great but I am deeply concerned that we are moving closer and closer to dynastic system.

it would be nice to live in FORWARD-looking country, rather than one that loves political family dynasties.

I think she is where she needs to be right now and could do a lot more good. But if she feels it is time for her to retire, I understand. I can't really imagine her doing 4-8 years as president after this. That job, done right, would wear out anyone.

He would make an awesome President. Hillary is great but has said she will not run and I too, am concerned about dynasty families revolving through the White House.

And I cannot stand this BS "dynasty" meme.

Opposing someone because of their name is just as stupid as supporting someone because of their name. If Hillary is qualified and the best person for the job (that's a separate debate), we should oppose her simply because her husband was president?
