141. I agree with Roseanne
I don’t think she got everything right, but she captured the way Obama has received way more press and support than he deserves, and he wouldn’t have gotten them if he was a woman. Obama is not a bad guy, he is an inspiring figure, but he is as much of a politican as Clinton but he isn’t getting the same negative due to the fact that he is a relatively newbie and he is a man. Obama ducked on many issues, and refused to vote yes or no on some controversial issues because he doesn’t want the republicans to use it against him, I think that’s why when it comes to standing up for what you believe in , Hillary is not any worse than Obama. In fact, Obama has proven to compromise his principles in order to appease the Republicans, like the health care issues in Illinois. I think Roseanne expresses that sentiment.
