Not My President? How About Not My System?

by our friends at This Is Hell Radio

BAR managing editor Bruce Dixon asks whether, when we say "not my president" are we just hollering for Hillary, or maybe Cory Booker? Shouldn't we be saying tht none of them have ever been our president? Trump is no more illegitimate than the last half dozen or 3 dozen presidents. Don't we need to replace a system, not personalities and parties?
