I figure these are fairly hot topics and I encourage anyone to share any lexigrams they come up with. I've been working on these for a couple of weeks and though I'm not sure if they are completely error free, I feel they are ready for posting.

PS Before someone flips a lid, please note that I am using Linda's method here and if the lexigram is saying something you don't like about someone/something realize that I have applied the "zebra rule" when it comes to using the word "no" ... that is, use it to negate negative words as long as there is no "yes". "Hillary Clinton" is interesting and I left both leanings in because (1) that's how they came to me and (2) I think that, like with Linda's lexigram of Hitler in Star Signs, names can sometimes reveal meanings that may not always agree with each other ... which I think suggests the individual has alot of choice in the decisions they make. Plus, I think her name contains things that relate, oddly enough, to her husband's past and which, to me, didn't take on the "no" in actuality. But feel free to disagree and share your own interps.

(I'll break this up into a few posts for easier reference.)

Wow, Lexx and Eleanore that was great!

For some reason, I see her winning.

Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year....
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep. ~Robert Frost

A HORNY RAT HIT HILL ON CHIN

A NORTH NATION TORN IN TRIAL

That sounds prophetic. Either the USA`s currents problems or the battle for seating delegates/election.

Good work ladies!

If I may opine:

I think lexigrams for the candidates could potentially contain certain terms which are logical based on what these candidates are often called. These terms are: ["Presidential"] "candidate" and "Senator."

I think lexigrams pertaining to the election should exclude any names the candidates are not commonly called by. As such I'd remove middle and maiden names as they are not an active part of these campaigns.

For insight into how these candidates might perform in the position of President of the United States I think it should be "President" plus the common name, or alternately, "President" plus the full formal name. I'm not sure if I was doing these if I'd include the number of their presidency. That's a gray area for me.

Just my opinions.

Interesting thoughts.
They can be done all those ways just to see.
As for full names and titles, I see no issue there.
