For crying out loud, look at the calendar

Were we to accept the media buzz, the 2016 election is about to be held, possibly as early as tomorrow.  The fawning fascination, if not outright obsession, with Hillary is utterly ridiculous.  There are several serious problems facing our governments, at every level, so wasting words and breath to report or talk about 2016 is woefully premature.

It is as if large segments of the media and political elite are deliberately or unconsciously clueless about the problems of today.  For example, Syria, unemployment, Benghazi, IRS, economy, NSA, debt limits, Affordable Care Act (classic oxymoronic title), Afghanistan, Iran, dysfunctional Congress, terrorism, etc.  From the President to some city mayors, there is an absence of governance in favor of constant campaigning.  Hence the dialogue about Hillary.  By the way, if one carefully analyzes Ms. Clinton, it will be discovered that she's done squat, nada, nothing.  There are no achievements to extol.  The only truly notable points are the series of fabrications and lies (her remembering landing under fire in Bosnia when First Lady).

Our so-called elected leaders need to forget about 2014 or 2016 and focus on the very real, very important issues of the day.  No more campaign style bus tours or inflammatory speeches.  Roll up your sleeves and deal with today's problems.  If these problems aren't addressed, the 2014 and 2016 elections won't matter.  

So, for crying out loud, look at the calendar.
