ELECTIONS have Consequences.
A Vote for Hillary Clinton for President isn't looking so bad now ... right.
Try to remember this in November and VOTE

(16,110 posts)you're not going to find more than a few right wing trolls and maybe a half dozen lurkers here who did not vote for Clinton.

(5,106 posts)Hillary has been pilloried by conservative and male reactionaries since Bill, unfortunately, said "You're getting two for one" when elected. She didn't behave as a traditional First Lady and has been hated for having a male perspective on her career, despite obviously being a good mother to Chelsea. Barack? The man is every bit as much white as he is black, and was mainly raised by white grandparents. Still, he's our first Black president. Doesn't anyone else see this as a little bizarre? Obviously we still haven't transcended the "drop of black blood makes you Black" days. By this standard Great Britain has their first black royal; yet Meghan is "biracial." Former POTUS Obama, however, is Black. Trump's inability to "stay classy" during the Cavanaugh hearings was only a matter of seeing how long it took him to "break bad." We're sadly falling behind most of the rest of the civilized world. AARGH! just heard the news re; Cavanaugh. The better angels of the U.S. nature are annihilated.

The non-voters are probably hanging out on a different blog, we're all voters and true-believers here.

(5,106 posts)Since I'm a Hillary/Pelosi contemporary, I hope to be around to see their honest historical evaluation. Or it may just be an Orwell/Wells future.
Agree, but unfortunately that argument fell on many deaf ears. Please remember this election cycle and in 2020....

(8,652 posts)...what a binary choice is and how important that choice is in an election.
Your General Election vote is more important than your primary vote. I would have been thrilled by an appointment to the Supreme Court by Hillary, Bernie or Biden. The Trump appointments are disastrous and will have a negative affect on this country for decades.
Anyone, who believes in this country's future, who doesn't vote for the final Democratic candidate in the General is as much of a political enemy of ours as any asshole wearing a MAGA hat.

(638 posts)Even though my face is dry. As an assault survivor words cannot describe my anger right now.
We must vote her and the others out in november and have term limits for supreme court justices or pack the court when we have power. That and bring in puerto rico as a state, have dc as a state and break up california to increase the number of democratic senators to keep these people out of power. Don't let them take your power away. Stay engaged and keep on keeping on.

(599 posts)Those who aren't Republicans and couldn't vote for Clinton still say the primary was rigged against Bernie, or that Clinton wasn't an inspiring candidate. You can't get through to these people.
