She said that were she POTUS today she'd have an invesigation going on the possibility of market manipulation.......the same kind of market manipulation that brought us the Enron debacle.

I know you were in the markets then and remember how Enron wrecked the CA economy. I first crossed paths with you in Tony's group, so even though you had dropped out by then, I'm presuming you were still trading when Enron collapsed.

Her even recognizing and commenting on the likelihood of the present commodities markets being controlled by market manipulators was astonishing to me, as there's currently no one I know of writing/discussing this possibility, even though all the signs are there.

This is not trivial and it does show great insight.....the kind of insight that comes from experience. This should be important to voters, but I understand why she's being rejected.
The fact that there's some kind of weird enjoyment or glee exhibited by her attackers is troubling, but so be it.

Voters are in love with the IDEA of Obama and oblivious to the problems of electing someone to this high office who has so little experience. The IDEA of Obama is attractive to me, too. But I also clearheadedly know that he would not be where he is if he were a young white junior senator who worked as a community organizer and learned how to give a good speech.
