Context with 'druthers' as you're using it isn't syntactically correct. .. druthers refers to a preference, or a choice.

Secondary thought, I believe you may have come across it in a Mark Twain book, it sounds familiar to me and we were forced to read a ton of those in advanced lit.

Oh Professor how you must have been led astray.....
for synatactically speaking this is perfectly presented.
The word druther originates in the 19th century and can be defined as to mean "would rather"
Thus..... If you had your druthers would translate to be
If you would rather have someone rather than who you have now.
.........
then again....I could be wrong....
surely you jest.
no...i am serious...and don't call me shirley
for whatever the hell all that minutia means. Aj

At least you have a sense of humor! Yes, I just did a bit of net research, and it said that oldschool use of it was 'would rather' - it does however show a bit more data with that in what they'd call normal usage.

Ah Professor....
You have restored my faith in higher learning....your research has come upon the vastness of words.
Please, I implore your continued vestings upon the verse that may spew from my cerebral origins.

I was confirming what I remembered, and confirmed that his too was also acceptable. If it were a battle of wits, it wouldn't be with definitions of words Jax :P
