Take on Hillary’s next election

Dear Hillary
Please. Go. Away.
We have been to your restaurant, we have tried your quiche and we have had your coffee and it was nice but really I don't want to go back. The American people don't want to go back. Maybe it's unfair that you never got the ultimate prize as you went up against two of the most talented campaigners and gifted politicians I've ever seen. (I'm using gifted very loosely here but do think Trump is talented and has a gift). The problem is that you also have a gift and it also brings people out to vote...the Republicans.
We know the election was most certainly compromised by Russian bots and the office is likely rightfully yours. For this I feel terrible, terrible for you, terrible for me but mostly terrible for our country. The destruction that DJT will have done by the time this is all set and done is impossible to really quantify. But even with that said, it was also very apparent that America didn't really love your quiche and your coffee wasn't hot enough and the fact that you protected Bill and slammed his accusers doesn't work anymore. Your own party is lukewarm to you, your opposition hates you and by running again we are signing our own death-wish by likely getting 4 more years of this. We may also deprive ourselves of a truly great leader, somebody who can inspire, somebody who can motivate, somebody who can lead us through this fog by sheer personality.
You had your chance, you almost got there but it's time to move on.
I want a woman president, this country needs it as the final step of the fight for suffrage, we need to put an end to women's second class role in this country and it may never happened until we have a woman president.

We just don't want you.

Make your money, go on hikes, write your memoir (I'll buy it) but don't run again.


Sincerely,
The American Voters
