Former acting United States Deputy Secretary of State, Wendy Sherman suggested on Tuesday that Hillary Clinton lost in November in part because Barack Obama was the first African-American President.

Wendy Sherman told the audience at the Aspen Ideas Festival, “There is no doubt that we just had eight years of an African-American president is not a factor in all that we are experiencing today.”

“When we make a social change, when we make a decision to do something we have never done before, we then take two steps backwards at least.”

“I believe in my bones, among the list, I agree with the list that Sam put out about why Hillary lost but I would add to that it was pretty hard to elect a woman after you’ve elected the first African-American president.”

They paid this woman for that bit of brilliance?

[TADSLOS]

Bernie voters are racist? Who knew?

[Pilgrim's Progress]

CORRECTION: Our first Halfrican-NonAmerican present.

[Dave911]

Huh?

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Half-black! HALF-BLACK!!!!!

[Bubba_Leroy]

Millions of Americans who voted for Obama are now racist because they refused to vote for a crusty old white woman?

[wetgundog]

Yes, because he became President only because he was Black, or was bi-racial posing as Black.

[Vaduz]

And half wit half crazy half assed president......

[VTenigma]

She looks like she has the IQ of a bean curd. Is anyone keeping a Hillary lost because excuse list? The excuses must fill an encyclopedia by now.

[Drango]

and Russia. And sunspots...

[Texas Eagle]

Add it to the list.

[MNJohnnie]

So the people who voted for Obama in 2012 magically turned into racists because they did not vote for Hillary in 2016.

The level of ridiculous rhetoric coming out of these clowns is indicating a level of real mental derangement.

[RayChuang88]

No, what did in Hillary Clinton was the political baggage that was figuratively large enough to fill a 747 cargo freighter jet. The very fact she called people in flyover country "basket of deplorables" ended up being the turning point in the election, too.

[wardamneagle]

8 months later and we’re still hearing excuses.

[sportutegrl]

She’s not wrong. A lot of people scratched their Affirmative Action itch with the Obama vote, so were good to vote for a white guy, especially when they saw how bad the Obama Administration turned out.

[Pearls Before Swine]

So the people who voted for Obama in 2012 magically turned into racists because they did not vote for Hillary in 2016.

Or, sexists. Or something.

[4yearlurker]

When someone is half black-half white,the black half cancels out the white half. It’s a better fit for the lefty racists.
