I’m going to paraphrase a very telling statement made by another writer:

The danger to America is not Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man or woman like him or her with the Presidency.

It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama or Hillary Clinton presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such persons for their president.

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama or Mrs. Clinton, who are mere symptoms of what ails America. Blaming the prince or princess of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that will make them their prince or princess.

The Republic can survive a Barack Obama or Hillary, who are, after all, merely fools. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who will make him or her their president.

Watch out, the American people can't stand so much truth in one sentence.

Well done. Now I’m hungry for the original that launched your nice piece.
