Why I'm voting for Hillary
It's simple: Hillary Rodham Clinton should be president of the United States of America. This became clear to me while reading her 2003 memoir, "Living History."
After finishing the book, I no longer questioned how or why a first lady could run for senator or even president. But rather, I began to understand her quest to tear down the glass ceiling that has "18 million cracks in it." She was never meant to be just a first lady, a role that inherently limits the scope of political influence, but rather she was born to lean in. Here are four reasons you should lean in with her:
(Excerpt) Read more at cnbc.com ...
Your voting for her simply because she’s a woman?
That makes you sexist.
And btw you can’t use Karl Marx’s ideas to help the middle class.
Marx HATED the middle class. He wanted them dead.
So here we sit in 2015 and I have Hillary Clinton telling me the only way to help the middle class is to implement Marx’s ideas?
Well you middle class Marxists keep voting for it. :)
What is hystericaly funny is the four reasons listed are so generic and universal that you could use them as reasons to vote for other democrat and multiple Republican candidates.
The only distinction is if he wants to vote V for vagina. Then okay, but genetalia is a really por reason to vote for a woman candidate. Are we not supposed to ignore gender? Seems kind of sexist.
So, the writer is a socialist, hate-filled bigoted racist.
What else is new?
Skin color is off the table this election.
Time to vote lady parts.
This country is doomed.
The four reasons being:
She IS authentic
She will really fight for the middle-class
She understand foreign policy
She has the qualifications
Nice to see they are still doing a lot of drugs in the music industry.
That is so obvious. But they don't see it, they just don't.
On the other hand, should someone say something as equally stupid, "I want a man as president", all hell would break loose, everywhere.
LOL! Tell me about it, that was my first thought. Either this guy is doing a lot of drugs or this is some kind of Onion article.

I voting for Hillary as soon as I can get the stitches taken out of my head. My lobotomy was performed recently...
I’m voting for Hillary because she’s black.
This is all they need to do a lobotomy. Ask any democrat. They know first hand.
I can see this guy’s camel toe from my front porch.
I think Michelle Obama should have been President these last 7 years. We would have still gotten the same stupid idiotic policies but we would be far better off. Why? Becasuse then we would have got rid of both excuses to vote for her. She’s a woman and black. Covers all the bases....
He’s voting for her because he read a book? A book she wrote some 12 years ago? Before here latest email scandals and her Benghazi lies?
Might as well vote for Hitler. He was a choir boy and a decorated World War I hero. So I’ve read.
Mike, you need help. But, ignorance is difficult to overcome and stupidity is impossible to overcome. Try your best before you become a really lost soul.
Brett Favre’s wife
In a news conference, Deanna Favre announced she will be the starting Quarterback for the Green Bay Packers football team next season.
Deanna asserts that she is qualified to be the starting QB because she had spent 16 years married to Brett while he played QB for the Packers - even though she has actually never played football at any level from grade school up, never ran the offense of any team, nor ever played the game.
During this period of time, she became familiar with the definition of a corner blitz, the nickel package, man-to-man coverage, so she is now completely comfortable with all the other terminology involving the Packers offense. A survey of Packers fans shows 50% of those polled supported the move.
Does this sound idiotic and unbelievable ... or familiar to you?
Hillary Clinton makes the same claims as to why she is qualified to be the President of the United States and 50% of Democrats polled agree.
She has never run a city, county, or state during her “career” as being Bill Clinton’s wife. When told Hillary Clinton has experience because she has 8 years in the White House, my immediate thought was, “So does the pastry chef, and the person who picks up doggie doo from the White House Lawn.”
When it comes to running the State Department, her biggest achievement was getting a US Ambassador and 3 other Americans killed, by pretending terrorism had been defeated.....Her words still echo...”what difference does it make?”

Hillary and the [original 1960s] Black Panthers: The Real Story
Legaled.com ^ | Aug 19, 2003 | Richard Poe
I can't take it anymore. If one more person sends me that e-mail about Hillary and the Black Panthers, I'll have to be dragged away screaming in a straitjacket.
You know the e-mail I'm talking about. It accuses Hillary of helping the Black Panthers get away with torture and murder during the early 1970s. With the 2004 presidential race drawing near, the spam mills are creaking to life, flooding the Internet once more with this agitprop classic.
Unfortunately, the e-mail mingles good information with bad, sowing more confusion than enlightenment. Some versions, for instance, carry the byline of radio talk jock Paul Harvey, who says he did not write it. Such misrepresentations help Hillary defenders dismiss the e-mail as a hoax.
The story is no hoax, though. Its basic elements can be found in respected Hillary biographies and exposes such as Barbara Olson's "Hell to Pay," David Brock's "The Seduction of Hillary Rodham," Joyce Milton's "The First Partner" and Carl Limbacher's "Hillary's Scheme."
Here are the facts:
In May 1969, fishermen discovered the body of Black Panther Alex Rackley floating in Connecticut's Coginchaug River. Rackley's captors had clubbed him, burned him with cigarettes, scalded him with boiling water and stabbed him with an ice pick before finally shooting him in the head.
New Haven detectives learned that the Panthers suspected Rackley of being a police informer. Panther enforcers had tied him to a chair and tortured him for hours. Police arrested eight Panthers and later extradited Panther leader Bobby Seale from California, after a witness accused Seale of ordering Rackley's death. (1)
Campus radicals supported the Panthers. They organized mass protests in support of the so-called "New Haven Nine." Hillary was right in the thick of it.
By the time she entered Yale Law School in 1969, Hillary was already a radical celebrity on campus. Life magazine had featured Hillary in a piece titled, "The Class of '69," which showcased three student activists whom Life's editors deemed the best and brightest of the year. A line Hillary used in her Wellesley College commencement speech appeared under her photo: "Protest is an attempt to forge an identity." (2)
At Yale, Hillary helped edit the Yale Review of Law and Social Action – a left-wing journal which promoted cop-killing and featured cartoons of pig-faced police. (3)
A series of hard-Left mentors introduced Hillary to the brass-knuckle realities of revolutionary activism. As a Wellesley undergraduate, she met and interviewed radical organizer Saul Alinsky, whose Machiavellian tactics she admired. Hillary's senior thesis supported Alinsky's call for class warfare. (4)
At Yale, Hillary found a new Svengali in the form of left-wing law professor Thomas Emerson, known around campus as "Tommy the Commie." Emerson recruited Hillary and other students to help monitor the trial of the New Haven Nine for civil rights violations. Hillary took charge of the operation, scheduling the students in shifts, so that student monitors would always be present in the courtroom. She befriended and worked closely with Panther lawyer Charles Garry. (5)
Some believe that the enormous pressure exerted by the Left helped ensure light sentences for the New Haven Nine. Whether or not this is true, the punishments were mild.
"Only one of the killers was still in prison in 1977," reports John McCaslin in the Washington Times. "The gunman, Warren Kimbro, got a Harvard scholarship and became an assistant dean at Eastern Connecticut State College. Ericka Huggins, who boiled the water for Mr. Rackley's torture, got elected to a California school board." (6)
Hillary's defenders argue that she played no "significant" role in the New Haven Nine's defense. This is semantic hairsplitting. Obviously, Hillary was less "significant" than Charles Garry or "Tommy the Commie" Emerson. But Hillary served as a trusted lieutenant to these movers and shakers. Moreover, she had a national profile as a campus activist. Hillary was no rank-and-file student protester, as her apologists claim.
Indeed, Hillary's work for the Panthers won her a summer internship at the Berkeley office of attorney Robert Treuhaft in 1972. A hardline Stalinist, Treuhaft had quit the Communist Party in 1958 only because it was losing members and no longer provided a good platform for his activism. (7) "Treuhaft is a man who dedicated his entire legal career to advancing the agenda of the Soviet Communist Party and the KGB," notes historian Stephen Schwartz. (8)
The defense of the New Haven Nine marked Hillary's initiation into the sinister underworld of the hard-core, revolutionary Left. To my knowledge, Hillary has never publicly renounced nor apologized for her role in that movement.
