Presidential qualities

Dear Daniel Pipes,

I tried to send a comment to you two time over the last few days, but unfortunately computer problems prevented it. Now, I realize that my comments are a bit "after the fact.

I just happen to agree with you that Donald Trump is inadequate presidential material, and that Ted Cruz would have been a better choice for the Republican nomination. In my estimation, swinging from a left-wing egotistical globalist who lacked experience, like Obama, to a right-wing/centrist (I am not sure of Trump's political stance.) egotistical politically inexperienced, inconsistent populist, like Trump, may not be healthy for the American nation. What it all boils down to is Republicans defeating Democrats/Hillary at all costs.

All in all, it is a sad commentary on the election to be.

Respectfully,
Susan H. Somerville
