She wouldn't win, at least not yet, we've got to drift more to the left as a country to have an election she'd become President in. And if not Biden who? Who should run for President that has a chance of actually winning the election? It's easy to piss on them selecting Biden, but no one else is a viable option. You want more younger options to vote for, run for office yourself, get your friends to run for office, can't vote for young left leaning politicians if they don't freaking run and win elections.

We could run Clinton again. It's Her turn!

People not understanding there is no such thing as a "protest" vote protest voting during her run are why we are in this mess in the first place. Not sure risking it a second time for those that didn't learn the lesson is a good idea. It would be interesting and fun to watch the oppositions heads explode though if it did happen.

We're in this mess because millions and millions of people that voted for Trump and they're going to vote for him again.

The lesson here is that we need to do something about Trump voters, not waste time on a few percent of dorks that think voting 3rd party matters.
