You're Right

I hadn't reacted to your cogent reasoning because generally there's no impetus to bother reacting when one is satisfied with what one has read. However, since you are hearing so much from those who disagree, I'll add my voice to yours and agree that it would be ruinous if we elected a man who has been on both sides of so many issues, makes preposterous and uninformed statements on a daily basis, gets credit from his supporters for a business acumen that he does not possess (raking off millions through sweetheart deals while the people who trusted him with their money get stuck with bankrupt enterprises is not someone I'd trust with my money -- or my country), and, worst of all, has a hot temper and vindictive nature that would cause him to unlawfully retaliate against journalists, political opponents, and (God help us) foreign countries.

It's vitally important to have a President who will protect America's interests, not one who a very obvious record of only protecting his own interests at the expense of everyone else.
