Sharon Stone is the latest celebrity to weigh in on the 2016 presidential election.
Like many in Hollywood, the actress endorsed Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton in 2008. Now eight years later, Stone feels it's the female candidate's time. "Look at everything she's been through. Why would she have been secretary of state during the most demanding and dangerous time this country has seen since World War II?" Stone tells The Hollywood Reporter. "She could go retire somewhere great, write a book, relax a little. It's not like she needs the $200,000 or whatever you make being president. She just cares about our country."(snip)
"She showed such grit and grace as secretary of state, such steely calm and humor in those hearings. That's what it actually takes to be president. It takes a lot of friggin' mettle. It doesn't take a lot of flamboyancy or that George W. Bush let's-go-out-for-a-beer personality."
Lack of experience is also the reason Stone doesn't think Bernie Sanders is qualified for the job. "I do not believe that Bernie Sanders is in any way, shape or form prepared to be president. I think he's a very intriguing, outspoken, energetic campaigner — but there's a big difference between knowing how to put on a campaign and actually being president of the United States of America," she says. "And at 74 years old, some of his learning curve is not totally on the beat."(snip)
...I wonder, like, how much acid has this guy taken?" she says. "I really do, that's not a joke. We were so aggressive asking people, 'Did you smoke pot?' But in reality, how much acid has Bernie Sanders taken? Because there's a certain edge to his personality and way about his behavior that makes me wonder, 'How much LSD have you taken?'"

Once I would have hit that, now more than once.
I sure will....:o)
It’s funny to watch them on some variety show when they are asked a politcal or opinion question...They get this “rel serious” look on their face and lean toward to questioner or camera and try to be so .....smart...
Think of Ted Baxter on the Mary Tyler Moore show...(if you are old enough to remmber that)
How much coke did Barry Soetero snort?
Stone: It’s not like she (Killary) needs the $200,000 or whatever you make being president.
True. But if the presidency offered no chance to increase your person power, Killary wouldn’t consider it.
I always go to Hollywood actors/actresses for my political insight. Hollywood, is there anything that they don’t know?
Sharon who? I always make my political and life decisions based on what some actor says..........not!
I don’t think Hillary ever tripped on acid.
“I always look to Hollywood when I need guidance on political issues. After all, who would have their finger on the pulse of our country better than someone who makes their living in a fantasy world? /s/”
Well she does know how to “give beaver shots” in movies! That should count for something. Maybe we should defer to Laz?
I really hope that punch connected and knocked that moron out!
It depends on what her goals and desires are, and what is the size of the marginal unit of wealth that she uses for rating marginal utilities in the context of her goal.
Maybe, perhaps, but I think she mellowed out on something to affect her brain today.
I don’t think Hillary ever tripped on acid.......No, but she trip on an airplane, drunken witch.
I know this is a different year, but I think experience still counts. How could Hillary have been there in the 60s and 70s and never dropped acid? Inauthentic.
Sharon Stone??? Well I guess it’s settled then...Hillary it is..
Only the failed ones, the ones who had their run and then had to actually work for a living, have any creds with me.
I didn’t think she was flashing her brains in Basic Instinct, but perhaps I was wrong.
