This is NOT an endorsement of Elizabeth Warren.

It IS a smack in the head to the soft and hard misogynists.

STOP treating female candidates differently from male candidates.

She is a United States Fucking Senator like many, many men who tried to run for president from that position.

I am sure there will be other women who choose to run this go-round. At least two more who are also Senators. So just fucking STOP IT, you misogynists.

You just wait 'til we get to the swimsuit competition in the primaries. Think about Joe and Bernie doin' the runway strut in speedos. Who has the "likability" problem now?








What? No swimsuit competition for 2020? How the hell we s'posed to get motivated and moved to pick a candidate? Crazy libreals.

and unnecessary. I hate when politicians pander and can't be themselves. Hillary told The Breakfast Club in an interview that she carries hot sauce in her purse, clearly pandering to African Americans. Politicians just need to be themselves and stop faking it. It looks ridiculous. Even if Warren drinks beer, no need to do it on camera so obviously. Just be who you are. That's why Obama and Beto attracted so many supporters. There's something to be said for pure authenticity.

2008 interview: "I eat a lot of hot peppers. I for some reason started doing that in 1992, and swear by it." As SOS she traveled with hot sauce, there's lots of information about this.

You didn't know? Why not just Google it rather than fall for propaganda?

Salon: "Hillary's hot sauce long con: If Clinton is pandering with this latest food revelation, its the most impressive suck up ever. Hillary's problem with authenticity is so bad, it's easy to believe she time traveled back to '92 to plant the seed."

She doesn't have the long flowing blonde hair that the MAGAs would embrace, and she doesn't speak word salad like Palin and Trump. Her focus is where it should be for part of the Democratic platform and the legislative agenda on the horizon.

GOElizabeth! Teach them...
