Who was in Life magazine for a liberal rebuttal of a standing Senator’s speech at their college graduation, who got a job as part of the Watergate prosecution team straight out of law school? Are you guessing Bill? You’d be wrong. Sexism has some amazing blinders available- every accomplishment Hillary Rodham had was

Did you not see the word viable? There are lots of qualified people of either gender who are not viable as candidates, and unfortunately, female candidates often have to be twice as qualified as their male peers to be considered viable.

It’s not her support of Bernie Sanders that makes me question her feminism, but the fact that she chooses to define Clinton by her relationship to her father and her husband, rather than any actual merits or her own accomplishments.

Can all of these people who want a female president, just not this one please give me five viable alternatives with the public service and foreign policy experience of Hillary Clinton we can run in 2020?

Haha okay so I know Trump is terrible and Sanders is not, but in terms of actual policy proposals? They both appeal to their respective voters (extreme conservatives vs. relatively ‘extreme’ liberals) with goals that aren’t grounded in reality. See, it’s simple ;)

It’s too late for him to get on any state ballot as an independent, so you’ll have to wait until next time. Your threats are meaningless in 2016, so don’t pull it. I would have preferred if he ran as an Independent because it would have been honest. He has spent his career excoriating the Democratic party as immoral

Are you like me where I feel like if I’m not a Bernie supporter I can not admit it for fear of being attacked? Like there’s some shame for liking the candidate who is almost exactly like Bernie, but has plans based in reality? I’m not sure how to phrase it exactly, but its toxic.

This is also funny because of the big “Bernie or Bust” movement. You say you’re interested in change and will remain consistently engaged and make the change happen...yet you’ve stated you’re going to abandon the electoral process if guy doesn’t get the nom. That’s not how that works. At all.

Plus I have a hard time sympathizing with registered independents in closed primary states. Not wanting to be labeled even though there are literally no consequences or obligations associated with party affiliation feels so ridiculously precious and self indulgent. Registering with a party is even less onerous than

I guess diplomacy won’t be a thing we can expect in a Sander’s administration, then?

We aren't going to get an article about the trip costing $300k, taken from campaign funds even after it being constantly stated that it isn't a campaign trip...

A funny but sad moment: When he went to meet the head of the conference, they have him on video walking into the room, and the head of the conference, a woman, stands up to greet him. Sanders strolls past her to shake the hand of the first man he sees. Sigh. Oh Bernie. Damn it. I might have to vote for you in the

“Flip-flopping” =/= “growing and evolving as a person and changing your politics to reflect that”

I also like this because it belies the “I’m not sexist because I don’t like Clinton! I’d vote for Warren in a heartbeat!” thing. Warren was also seen as unlikable while actually running for office.

1) Your logic is juvenile. Let me get this straight: So, politicians—unlike all other human beings—aren’t allowed to change any opinions based on new information, results, and social cues? They should stay locked into a position forever, just so no one can accuse them of being a flip flopper? That is some low-level

I think those are good things, to change one’s mind or bow to one’s constituents. I’ve always felt like we should walk away from the originally Republican point of “flip-flopping.”

We don’t. It isn’t going to happen. We’re not going to get an article about how weird it is for a candidate to leave the country right before a primary he really needs to win in order to visit the head of an institution as regressive as the Catholic Church. We’re certainly not going to get one about how his campaign

She has the tendency to flip flop on just about anything depending on the way the wind blows

I think this speaks to one of the things people have said about her; that she’s absolutely fired up and a totally different person when she’s talking policy and substance, compared to campaigning. Politico had an interesting article on this from someone who’d reported on her both when she was Secretary of State and on

Hmm noticing how it’s only cool when men do it...
