I'm terrified that her ill health will mean she loses the presidential race- she's been doing so well! God help us all if trump gets in.

'The world works on power. If a country is not strong then it will get pushed around by the stronger ones e.g. Greece in the EU, Syria by Saudi Arabaia and Turkey etc.'

So true! Claig I love reading your posts and I tend to agree with most of what you say.

As far a Putin is concerned, why does everyone hate him? He is a strong powerful man in a country that has an extremely powerful army and intelligence agency. Had he been anything else he would have been just a rubberstamp president. This western attitude of 'everything to suit me and my sensibitilies' is really backwards. His rise to power has also been enabled by 8 years of weak presidency in the US. 8 more of another Democrat and Putin will truly take over.

Putin already has support from India and China. 2 Countries that make all the difference in Asia. Europe is fucked by EU and America will Implode with HC at the realm.

Takesnoprisoners - I know you asked Craig,but I think it's a narrative pushed by the CRF to promote unity, particularly European unity. It's like the immigration narrative pushed by the right - everyone needs a bogeyman.

I think the campaigning goes on for far too long. It's just ridiculous. Even a young person would be exhausted and get run down after all these months of it. And then there's the relentless aggression coming at you from all directions - who'd want to be a president (or MP for that matter).

I think she'd be better saying she's ill - instead of pretending she's fine when she's not. Just be genuine and upfront about it
