I'm just glad Bush is pretty much out of the running now. I could not stomach a Clinton vs Bush election matchup next year (talk about two sides of the same coin), and it would be the first time since I've been eligible to vote that I'd sit out a presidential election.
If Trump somehow wins the Republican nomination, I'd be inclined to hold my nose and vote for him simply because he'd be the one to shake things up the most. Bernie says some things I agree with but his goal to bring even what some on the left would consider just a "mild" form of socialism to the US would fail spectacularly, and he'd be a very ineffective POTUS for the most part because once he fails to use his political capital to push his agenda, he'd quickly become a lame duck president.
Remember... it took Obama over a year of campaigning and promotion to get his health care reform bill, the so-called "Affordable Care Act", to be passed and it had to be done in the dead of night at the 11th hour with ZERO support from the other side. If Obama, Mr. Hope And Change himself could barely push that bill through, there's no way in hell Sanders could do even 1/10th of what he wants to do.
