What are her accomplishments?
What are her qualifications?
Seriously, this is your opportunity.. I'm always going to think she's an amoral power-hungry sociopath, but I'll say I was wrong, I'll say you were right, I'll say Hillary Clinton is somehow competent after all.

But as it stands, it's the laughable scenario where Hillary Clinton's best attribute is that she might be better than Trump. Likewise, Trump's best (and only) attribute is that he might be better than Hillary Clinton. The only person each could possibly win against is the other.
She's been fighting for children's rights more than three times as long you've been alive. When she was your age she had already figured out that pursuing a background in law and politics was the best way to help people who had no legal protection or even identity under the law, because even an activist needs some legal footing to stand on. She's also been fighting for women's rights, but as they had more standing than children, she felt it important to champion that cause. She's consistently done this over her entire career. Long after she was no longer a child.

Know what Trump has done the whole time? Chased after those kids as soon as they were of age, while leering at them beforehand.

Because somehow clarifying and saying, and I quote, "I am wrong" is just making excuses.

By the standard you set out for anyone saying Clinton isn't a liar, yes, that is exactly correct.

Personally I think your standard is wrong and you should just ditch the standard, realize that Clinton isn't dishonest and we can all have a group hug.

Sorry, I'd love that, it's not like I particularly enjoy arguments, but you have about the same chance of convincing me that Clinton isn't dishonest as you have of convincing Old Uncle Sam that Communism might have been a great idea after all. I will reiterate, I was wrong, she is not a liar, but she is incredibly deceitful and manipulative, as well as power-hungry and almost totally amoral (along with a dash of incompetence). In my view. I may be wrong. God forbid, I HOPE I am wrong, it would be freaking awesome if I was wrong. But I do not think that I am. I suppose we will ultimately see, one way or another.

So... mass riots across the country, which if not acted upon by the government, could easily result in civil war or anarchy.

Good plan, that one.

Your choice.

You made confident assertions without a shred of evidence to back them up.  Last time you did that you thought it was impossible you were wrong.  But you were wrong.  And you are equally wrong right now.

I'm failing to think of a single way how would the current (admittedly, not ideal) election system be able to kill off USA.

ITT: People do Google research for someone who thinks asking questions constitutes participating in a conversation. It's not like Hilary Clinton's entire fucking political history isn't readily available for review.

But I guess it's easier to cynically bitch and act as though you've done your homework to form an opinion, than to actually do your homework.

Plus skip over the post where I point out that she's been fighting for children's rights since the 60's, while Trump has been keeping track of how old those kids are so he can start dating them once he doesn't have a legal problem.

Aw shoot and it's tabletop night for me!  I'll lurk the IRC anyway and share the log after.  Won't be able to join in the drinking though :P
Was a lot of fun last time.  Same channel should be fine, right?

Server: irc.sorcery.net
Channel: #bay12debate

For people without an IRC client, there's this:
Syria
How does irc.sorcery.net #bay12debate sound?
Tell me how to use, and I will participate.

How do I get the Kiwi IRC to get to it?

http://sorcery.net/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=69 should work. It's got Kiwi embedded.

Mibbit also works- select SorceryNet as your server.
Click this link, put in #bay12debate as the channel.

Ok explain this then :

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2015-05-26/what-we-know-about-wjc-llc-bill-clinton-s-consulting-company

One million dollars from Qatar for Bill's consulting company birthday. And remember, in 2008, Hillary's reported net worth was minus 8 millions dollars. Today, it's 31 millions dollars.
That's a lot of speaker fees.
