Once the GOP manages to catch up on basic things like human rights and people actually being equal it's not even worth talking about their specific policies IMO. For that to happen you have to pass that basic requirement and they quite simply do not at this time.

Completely agree. In fact, if you want to see the gulf in divide between the GOP and the Democrats, watch the VP debate between Mike Pence (GOP) and Tim Kaine (Dems). There ain't no way Kaine is not going to mop the floor with Dunce. While Clinton vs Trump was more a debate of person vs person (with Clinton fleshing out more of her policies, and Trump being a bombastic dumbass), the VP debate will likely be a debate of the respective party's ideologies. It will highlight the gulf between the GOP and Dems.

Obama himself said that Hillary Clinton is more qualified than him or Bill or anyone else. I would agree with him. Clinton's role as First Lady (Both Arkansas and USA), NY Senator and Secretary of State is enviable. She's done more good in any one of those roles than Turnip has done in his entire life.
