After all, a two-term president will have led their nation for a significant percentage of their lives. That's boring. Isn't it time for a transformation?

  • Ben Cardin I've known Hillary Clinton for a long time. She's trustworthy. She's ready from Day One to assume the office of presidency in the United States. She's qualified and she's ready as compared to, I think, Donald Trump, who has shown his recklessness, and dangerous statements that he's made.
