Hillary Clinton: Half of my Cabinet will be women
Yahoo ^ | 4/26 | Dylan Stableford

Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton says that if she’s elected president, at least half of her Cabinet will be women.

During a town hall hosted by MSNBC on Monday night, host Rachel Maddow asked Clinton whether she would match a campaign promise Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made good on earlier this year.

“He promised when he took office that he would have a Cabinet that was 50 percent women, and then he did it,” Maddow said. “Would you make that same pledge?”

“Well, I am going to have a Cabinet that looks like America,” the former secretary of state replied. “And 50 percent of America is women, right?”

‘Half of my Cabinet will be women”,............................ LOL, ELECTION 2000; “I will bring 250K high paying jobs to NYS.” Now I ask, will the other half be transgenders? This is BS political promise talk, to bolster her support with women, that’s all.

Dems have been using that screwball "looks like America" meme for many decades now. It's actually a nothing phrase. It just means they want to be as p.c. as possible. What they are really saying is "we have a lot of incompetent people we want to reward, and we don't care if they're qualified or not."

If Hillary was choosing a medical team to operate on her for a serious condition, do you think she'd pick a team that "looked like America" or the best physicians possible?

The left can’t make up its mind whether women’s gender shouldn’t matter (the loos) or whether women’s gender deserves to be pimped (the cabinet).

Actually, how many people are IN a Cabinet? I don’t think I ever counted.

And what’s the percentage of gays? Less than 1%? So it may very well be that she SHOULDN’T have any gays in her cabinet in order for it to “look like America”

Because it's worked out so well for these countries? Why only women? Why not 2 trans, 1 gay, 1 disabled, etc?

Looks like the America they are trying to engineer. Trump is winning because he’s attempting to frame an agenda that looks like the America that simply is.

But what about transgenders, lesbians, gays?

And will a transgender go in the man or woman column?

Hillary famous for paying women less than men in her State Office. And she in fact had many unpaid female interns. Unpaid as meaning they didn’t even get minimum wage.
