Disagree- POTUS should be an inspirational person in addition to having good policies.

Yea well “inspirational person” in politics is meaningless when you consider internal biases that somehow always make men the more inspirational candidates
-
Even though I am an older white guy, I find AOC inspirational - not that she is ready in 2020.
-
Two years ago, when Hillary was running, white guys were saying she wasn’t inspirational but that Warren was. Now that Warren’s running, she’s not inspirational but AOC is. It’s only the woman not running for president who inspires. Why is that?
-
Because men can’t feel inspired and threatened simultaneously.

-
I would argue that Tammy Duckworth is off-the-charts inspirational.

I loved Hillary. I loved her policy. I thought she was an Uber competent technocrat. I voted for her and canvassed for her. But I never put her sticker on my car next to my Obama sticker. ie Charisma matters whether we want it to or not.
-
Yes! Me too! I even bought Hilary’s bumper sticker but never felt inspired to put it on
-
I, a bumper-sticker-avoider, went out *after* the election & got a Hillary sticker for my car bc I'm so disgusted the way Hillary has been portrayed vs her competition. Once I realized, I started watching videos & holy shit - she's warm & funny & whip smart. And inspirational.

In my mind, Hillary remains best-qualified to be president. Transcripts of the debates and a speech she gave in Oct. 2016 remind me of what might have been - and what still could be.
-
And yet the voters of America picked the least-qualified candidate! Why don't qualifications matter to the voter? We're seeing the result ;(
-
It’s infuriating. Buts that’s the arena in which the presidential election game is played. No use pretending it’s not. My plan? Work hard in the primaries for whichever candidate I FEEL most inspired by. Then work even harder in the general for whichever dem wins primary.
-
It'll be interesting to see who that Dem is. I wonder who the Republicans will run. It couldn't be Trump, could it?

Corporate media likes turning everything in politics into "The Bachelor".

Or survivor.

I think the WH has the rights for survivor now

They sure do spend a lot of time voting people off the island, don’t they?
