Sep 2017

I'm so tired of the pix of Hillary in which she doesn't look so great. I know she's not vain, but let's face it most older women don't look perfect on film. It takes a little work/skill to get a nice photo and I can say this because I am an older woman. So are many of my family and friends.

Hillary can look great when the photographer makes an effort, but so few actually do.

This is great to see. She looks proud and confident. That's what Democrats need now, to be proud and confident. Not beat down and browbeaten by third party lies and strategies to undermine our party. Take the power back. I love it that Clinton looks almost defiant here.

They are both children of immigrants. She appears to be intelligent. Other than that, I have not bothered to learn that much about her. Wikipedia and Google and her Bio page would tell you more.

But as for reasons to put her in the same league with other accomplished American women? She is.

...to march in the streets in 2017 in the United States of America.

If that defines "intelligent" that definition escapes me.

Intelligence without ethics is worse than useless.

I couldn't care less about her bio. The company she keeps says everything I need to know about her.

...notable distinction of having two Nazis, Hitler and Trump, being declared "Person of the Year."

Perhaps having Ms. Clinton on the cover is an attempt at expiation. I don't care.

I'm not going to write them. I clearly have very little respect for them.

Ms. Haley is unremarkable in any case, and her "first" is essentially worthless, particularly since it involves arbitrary factors in her genome, and that it isn't "white Anglo-Saxon" is mildly remarkable, but nevertheless she's a racist who was elected governor of the most racist state in the Union.

Generally, I don't care for that phrase, because govt and business have different objectives.

But HRC would have run the WH like a finely tuned piano, a well-oiled machine. People wouldn't constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop, or for the ratings to come out on a reality tv show.

A little overboard on the photoshop. Her clothing is is way too flaw free. A little tune up on skin and hair is to be expected, but her clothing looks like it was CGI rendered.

Please note. This has nothing to do with Hillary. Somebody just got carried away in the art department.

Doesn't matter if she's been investigated for anything her opponents could think of for 30 years and has come up clean as a hound's tooth and smelling like a rose.
If the Orange Tub of Goo says she's crooked that's good enough for me.

Yeah, if Hillary were where she deserves to be, in the Oval Office, we'd be in so much better shape as a country.
Much more respected internationally, 800,000 fine young people not worried sick about their status, no fear of starting WWIII on the Korean Peninsula, and we'd be dealing with Russian influences on our government. And that's just off the top of my head.

Really? She drives a car around in circles. Hardly a world changer, in my opinion. She wasn't even the first woman driver in NASCAR. Others paved the way for her, actually. She's popular because NASCAR dads think she's purty'.

Hey, it is what it is. More power to her (literally and figuratively).

She was far more important for the advancement of women than some of the others. But I guess there's always someone who maybe shouldn't be there, and some that should be, but aren't. Just about any "list" is flawed like that.
