sometimes things are just so depressing, like the re-rise of hillary. in my opinion, hillary clinton cannot beat donald trump, but then again, i keep thinking she's got to collapse any second. here it is perhaps my lack of empathy and understanding: i'm having trouble reconstructing the process of reasoning or emoting that would guide anyone to vote for her. the section of her nevada victory speech i liked the best was her passionate plea to end unlimited contributions, 'secret money' and so on in campaigns: it's like she's saying, just very directly right in your face: only deeper and deeper into the problem can fix it. it is truly like she's attacking or discrediting herself, pointedly: running against herself. or it is: 'i am what is wrong; if elected, my first priority will be destroying myself.' people applauded. wha?
but i started out to try to say something positive. here is a lovely headline:
‘A black president, yay!': 106-year-old finally meets the Obamas, dances like a schoolgirl
