OT: Hillary

Not trying to knock her, but when you see her walking doesn't she seem grandmotherly/old and a bit frail - imagine 4 or even 8 years from now (assuming she would be re-elected as sitting prez)

No, I'm referring to @tx, personally. LOL
Main point is that aging boomers have trouble with women in positions of power. Hard to prove, but that's my opinion.
1. Most of the boomers I know are hard workers who have built up their businesses. They could give two shits if the next president is a female, but I am running into even liberal boomers that hate Hillary - mainly because they hate the Clintons in general. Most of them were hard working and had good work ethic, it's their children - the gen Xers (me) and their grandchildren (millennials) which are the fuck ups.
2. One thing that strikes me is why are Hillary and Teump even running? If I was their age and had as much money as them I'd be retired sitting on my ass. I think they both are running just to satisfy their egos.
JFK, even I would long for him NOW, as opposed to hillary. He was so far right of today's democrats, that he would be a left leaning or moderate republican.
Yes I know, off topic, but this election IS critical to my countries future well being.

LOL. @Skibum is the caricature of the disgruntled, white, boomer throwing a temper tantrum in the face of his diminished importance. Perfect illustration of what I'm talking about. Give you credit for not mincing words, @Ski.
@Shailynn & @Dallas - I hear what you're saying and I totally believe that gender has no influence on your vote, personally. But look around you and consider what's happened on the campaign trail. How about the crowds chanting about putting Hillary in jail or chanting about putting her in front of a firing squad? There's just so much loathing that can't be explained by her record.
The only people that ever run for POTUS are egomaniacal, power hungry, narcissists. ALL OF THEM. It is not meant as a criticism -- it is a prerequisite for the job. Why else would anyone aspire to have their every closet opened, their every utterance and secret thought exposed and diagnosed? I sure as fuck wouldn't invite the scrutiny. Especially in the electronic age where everything is recorded and saved forever.
Eisenhower, Johnson and JFK would never have survived a primary run in 2016, much less won a general election.
Trump could be the poster boy for cardiovascular disease.
The closest thing to a criminal act is probably the private email server. That would be enough to get any rank-and-file employee fired and banned from classified material for life. In Hillary's case, I think it's somewhere between incompetence, stupidity, and arrogance -- but nowhere near the level of treason. So don't think she should be in jail.
Gender argument is just a theory. Like I said, hard to prove.
Trump supporters hate her because they buy into the rhetoric he spews out, case in point Dallas. I mean some of these people legitimately believe she's had people killed.

Hillary-- "Don't worry. It's just just people pissed off at a video"
Hours later......
US Embassy--"it's getting pretty bad! Looks like terrorists! Please help!"
Hillary--zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
US Embassy--"it's getting pretty bad! Looks like terrorists! Please help!"
Hillary - "talk to the hand"
US Embassy--"it's getting pretty bad! Looks like terrorists! Please help!"
Hillary - "stop being such pussies - you sound like Bill"
Sorry - had to do it
All that is a far cry from suggesting she murdered them or declined to send help when they were under attack.
