Laura Bushs comments are making waves across the political world after she said at the 2016 Women in World Summit in New York City that she wanted our next president to be someone who cares about women in Afghanistan it being a core issue for her. It just so happens, that describes Hillary Clinton perfectly (she visited the region 4 times during her time as Secretary of State), and, frankly, its not something any of the Republican candidates can run on.
If you take her for her word, that can only mean one thing, she wants Hillary Clinton to be president. She may not have used those exact words, but thats basically what she just said. And many people in the audience literally took it that way. For more on this, visit HERE.
If she doesnt vote for Hillary, then shed be supporting Donald Trump, and hes already on the record for suggesting that the U.S. should target the families of terrorists in the region.
She may not actually go on the record and say Hillarys name, but she doesnt have to. Her words just did the talking for her.

But republicans who find their party no longer representing anything they care about leaving to support the only qualified candidate from either side is proof Hillary Clinton is a centrist, a neocon, a republican in sheep's clothing, etc.

(15,374 posts)believe and/or know about personally, there will be many GOP women who will vote for Hillary. Few will likely EVER say that out loud.
At a minimum, they will write in another GOP candidate or they will not vote at all. That will be almost as good as a vote for Hillary.
