Our elementary education system has been failing over they last decade or so. I would suggest lack of traditional qualifications could, in itself, be a qualification.

Think on it some more.

I asked why someone would think she is qualified. 

The only answer so far has been "nothing else works".

But things HAVE worked.  But people want to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

And it's not just saving the education system.  The job involves a lot more than that.

And she shows no knowledge of any of it.

A smarter, honest person would admit that that not accept the nomination.

A person who is a one trick pony and wants the power to try and force her ideas on an entire nation wouldn't.  Even if she has to swallow her pride and accept it from a man she wouldn't endorse for POTUS.

No matter how ill-suited they are for the job.

I'm not saying my way is the only way or the best way and your way is wrong and sucks.  I'm saying you wouldn't ask the least prepared person in the room to perform delicate surgery on your loved ones no matter how far along their injuries are and when there are other people who have an idea of what is going on.
