Obama: Clinton Would Have Won In A Landslide If Only Young People Voted
The Hill ^ | November 30, 2016 | By Brooke Seipel

Posted on 12/01/2016 6:22:25 AM PST by Fennie

Hillary Clinton would have won in a landslide if only young people had voted, President Obama said in an interview with Rolling Stone published Tuesday.

"If you look at the data from the election, if it were just young people who were voting, Hillary would have gotten 500 electoral votes," Obama told the Rolling Stone.

"So we have helped, I think, shape a generation to think about being inclusive, being fair, caring about the environment." Young Americans, he said, "will have growing influence year by year, which means that America over time will continue to get better."

“Btw, I’m on record as being in favor of the voting age being returned to 21.”
Great Thought!
I suggest one exception, Military Personnel w/ at least two years or more, honorable duty.
Snowflakes would not participate, no way!

But it would have Bernie, not Hillary, they seem to overlook that.

+500.

Using that line of logic, if Obama had real testicles, he wouldn't need Michelle for his beard.

Zero had plenty of time to golf, campaign and vacation.
But no time to save American jobs as president-elect.
Trump hasn’t even been sworn in yet and he’s already TCOB.

He’s lying. He knows what happens around age 30.

Thank you...and of course!

She would have won in a landslide if she wasn’t so freakin’ unlikeable.

When all gthese young snowflakes are melted, the adults will take over big time.

I am sick & tired of the generation that thinks everything is done electronically is sooooo much smarter than the rest of us.

They nedd to find out that NOT every job is one where you sit inside & play with keys on a computer all day long.

Far too many parents of these snowflakes are enabling them, & it isn’t helping anyone.

I am really tired of seeing parents being cannibalized by the behavior of their offspring.

The parents have been protecting them for so long it has become an epidemic of bad behavior on all sides.

None of us deserves to have to put up with this.

IF ONLY YOUNG VOTERS had voted? They might have voted for The Simpsons to run the country. Who do those YOUNG voters think pays them & signs the FRONT of the paycheck??? DAMN FEW YOUNG VOTERS get to sign the FRONT of the paycheck.

I had one of my young tech employees once tell me that pretty soon all repairs would be done in virtual reality.
I just smiled at him and told him to go fix the flat on his service truck.
Don’t know if he got message (doubt it), but someday he will.

.......70 year old nasty hag and a 75 year old whiney drug-damaged hippie—that was the choice for the RATS! You nailed it, Alberta’s Child!

But the Rat Party clearly has learned nothing since the election, their leaders and spokespeople continue to be drug-damaged Marxists like Howard Dean, Nancy Botoxly, Bernie Sanders, and Fauxahontas. All they’ve got are the residents of the Nasty Old Hippie Nursing Home, LMAO!

Best! Election! Ever!

Just what age do they consider young? My 34 son year old voted Trump. Just like his Mom did.

Hey BARKY; Hillary lost because,
“She was born to lose, to live her life in vain.
All her dreams, they only brought America pain.
All her life has always been so blue, born to lose, and now she’s losing you”.
Born to lose, it seems her life is bare.
When she woke, to find the votes not there.
Won’t blame herself, that’s something she can’t do,
Born to lose and now shes losing you.

(sung to the tune of Born To Lose)
