"“You know, I won Iowa not because the demographics dictated that I would win Iowa. It was because I spent 87 days going to every small town and fair and fish fry and VFW hall, and there were some counties where I might have lost, but maybe I lost by 20 points instead of 50 points,” Obama said'

Another time, upon reflection, perhaps giving speeches to tech companies with 9 employee's and $9 billion dollar valuations, the campaign should have focused the US Rust Belt where they got smoked out of the water. Ie: Less 9 people offices and more 19 000 people stadiums??

If there is going to be all this outrage in November when a demented, sick and dangerous old man wins, then the reflection of allowing another older and struggling man to run probably won't be sufficient. Perhaps some consequences for decisions? I am old fashion like that.

In YOUR business, if someone messes up beyond comprehension to catastrophic consequences when they potentially knew the risks, shrugging ones shoulders probably doesn't come off as an appropriate excuse or reason.
Clinton lost because of Comey.

Additionally, she didn't mess up beyond comprehension. She ran on issues, was the superior debater and had a better and more honest plan for America.

She lost because she faced a strong man who is also a charismatic leader in the eyes of a large percentage of Americans. Add to that the Comey crap right at the end and that resulted in a loss. She isn't some blundering moron who fataed it all up.

This is prime curves, though. Whatever you think is happening - regardless of the topic - is not what's happening.

I suggest you write less, read more, and go to a trusted adult to help you make sense of this crazy world. Whatever it is that you are doing on your own isn't working and I'm sick of being embarrassed for you.
