So, speaking to Hilary's judgment...

How many of us predicted months ago that her campaign would go negative and backfire? I knew then that going negative on one of, if not the only, nationally elected officials with impeccable records in regard to voting record and campaign finance was a non starter. Anyone doing so would be a fool. And yet here we are. Bernie Sanders is lying about his record.

I'm sorry, I don't trust her judgment.

Among other things, I'm a musician and blue collar worker with an associate degree. I'm also an unabashed pothead. I bring this up to illustrate a point.

I predicted this shit. Me. The pothead. Same thing with the Iraq vote. I knew there were no wmd's. I also knew that the vote meant we were going to war. She claims she thought there were wmd's and that the Bush administration just needed the vote to sabre rattle.

Now, that being said, I trust her judgment more than the remaining players in the GOP's "The Apprentice".

But I'm asking, shouldn't the president have at least as good judgment as a pothead?

On edit: Maybe one of you star members could start a poll. Should the POTUS have better judgment than a pothead?
A. Of course the POTUS should have better judgment than some dirty fucking pothead
B. Not necessarily. I know some very intelligent potheads. Why that Glamrock, for example, seems to be on the MENSA scale.
