You just can't manufacture love and respect !

You have to earn it, Donald !

Like Ted, with all the treasures on earth at his disposal, he could have sailed away on a yacht, drinking martinis, yet with two brothers killed, trudged every day to the Senate to work for healthcare for all.

Like Jimmy, who dedicates his now fragile life with such a fierce and abundant passion for helping those who truly need housing.

Like Barack, who chose to brush off those who hated him because of his skin, and rose above the idiocy of those who called him illegitimate and led the ultimate of dignified, intelligent, proper, sane, and respectful presidencies.

He hasn't "earned" an honest dollar in his life and respects no one (except maybe himself...and he is the only one doing that).

Personally, I want our next leader to be between Hillary (too soft) and Bernie (too loud) - but with a bleeding heart
