Clinton best for country

I will always think of Bernie Sanders as a poor loser. Why in the world the Democratic Party allowed him, as an Independent, to run on their name confuses me. But then the Washington State Democratic Party opted for the caucus instead of the primary, which I and many others disagreed with. The primary showed that Hillary is our favorite.

As for Hillary, there are many of us who supported her in 2008. We have waited eight years to support her again because we trust her and believe she have the experience, knowledge and common sense to be a great president and commander. The super delegates are standing for her because she campaigns for them and raises money for them. Hillary is more for the people that most realize.

My hope and prayers are that some of the obstructionists do not get re-elected. Congress needs to work as a unit to move our country forward.

If Donald Trump is elected, the current Congress will work against him, too. America needs to wake up and demand their elected representatives work for the country and not for their party.
