More on the Clinton Strategy

In order to win the nomination, Hillary Clinton will need to convince unelected insider delegates that even though she is in second place in all of the major categories (delegates, states and popular vote), she deserves the nomination.

If Hillary gets the nomination, there will be lingering discussion over how she "stole" it, how she turned her back on the will of the people, how she did not deserve to have it.

If Barack gets the nomination, there will be none of that. There will be relief that people feel knowing that the right outcome came to pass. There will be relief that we won't have to go through all the bullcrap that her nomination would bring. There will be relief that we can focus our time and money on a once-in-a-generation candidate who will restore America's status in the world and who will allow America's citizens to prosper beyond their wildest dreams.

If Barack gets the nomination, America will be proud. If Hillary gets the nomination, America will remain on the electoral-shenanigan road we started on in Bush v. Gore. We need to get off that road and get on a new path to greatness.
