(20,450 posts)supporting him by attacking me, then you have absolutely no credibility. Civil Rights isn't just about race. Civil Rights applies to race, gender, religion, age, etc. Civil Rights is broader than race. And we know that many white women didn't care about the plight of black women back then.
What is more, Hillary Clinton revealed her true nature and beliefs about black people during the 2007-2008 Democratic primaries. Her racism was unforgivable. It didn't surprise me that she called herself a Barry Goldwater Girl...she bragged about that. She knew damn well who Barry Goldwater was; she admitted that her own father was a racist who supported Barry Goldwater. She embraced Goldwater. But let's give her the benefit of the doubt and assume that she didn't fully know what he stood for--wouldn't she be silly and stupid for embracing someone so fully, understanding that his views on race and "states' rights" were front stage and right in our faces? She was fully of shit then, and she's full of shit now.
Please miss me with your feigned outrage.
Ann Richards was more of a champion of Civil Rights for ALL people than Hillary Clinton could ever be!
