So if Hillary is elected

...will she agree to have a password on the nuclear football or do we all spend her presidency worrying about her triggering Armegeddon by accidentally wiping a "Go" button, like with a cloth???

She explained that there is a football and there is a biscuit.

The biscuit is a card with the launch codes. It is on the POTUS' body at all times. All times.

The football is a brief case.

I do worry about HRC and a 3 a.m. phone call. Didn't she sleep through the emergency calls regarding the embassy in Libya?

will we have to worry about Sanders taking on more military action and his triggering Armageddon? We know he likes to give more funding to MIC's, he could have his chance to help them more. Well, we will not have to worry about Sanders having access to these things since he will not be president.

Fact Sanders has voted on several occasions for military action, his voting record does not change, every vote has been recorded.
