“says she needs to open up and be warmer”

There ya go then!

Not sure if this is true, or if it has changed, but I read a while back that the Sanders campaign is the only one that is not using unpaid interns, so there is that. I have always seen unpaid interns as nothing other than exploitation.

I have no idea how true this is, but I read a while back that Sanders’ was the only campaign not using unpaid interns.

I just found it and amusing response to the original comment I replied to.

It seems like Jim Webb might not vote his party either.

You mean the woman who was secretary of state for 4 years and helped direct foreign policy failures in Libya, Ukraine, Honduras, etc. resulting in the death, destruction, refugee crises, all the while whipping up support for potentially disastrous treaties such as the TPP, TTIP, and TISA, and using her position to…

The president can choose to prosecute financial crime (or not, as in the case of Obama), appoint agency heads, and direct military action (or choose not to take military action, which frankly, I would love to see).

I am always good for a rant ;) but I am totally flattered. You are more than welcome- no credit needed.

“Raise taxes and triple the debt” Republican talking points. You are attacking from the right-nice job. Higher taxes sure, but no more health insurance or health care costs...for everyone. There are currently something like 30 million people without insurance in the country. How many of those are women do you think?…

Maybe not explicitly, but.....

If I had the opportunity, I would like to ask Gloria this:

Wish I could star this 1000 times

You and I both understand that certain things, such as girls wearing dresses or having long hair, boys wearing pants and having short hair, are socially decided means of expression (stereotypes). Society could have decided the opposite, but lets face it- these are powerful…

Ah ok, I will take a shot at this. I am non-binary, biologically male and transitioned part-way. I take the hormones, but have had no surgery other than some hair removal. I speak only for myself and here are my two cents:
