There are already several theories circulating to explain the gap between Sanders and Clinton when it comes to young women.
Feminist luminary Gloria Steinem said just last Friday on Bill Maher’s show (then somewhat un-said Sunday) that young women are just going where “the boys†are.
Author Jill Fillipovic followed up with a riff on Steinem’s thinking in Cosmopolitan, arguing that, “In this primary, Sanders is the guy stuff. Clinton is the girl stuff.â€
She argued that young women often feel pressured to make a show of liking cool guy stuff instead of lame girl stuff.
Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz mused in a January New York Times interview that young women not rallying behind Clinton are merely complacent, while Joan Walsh noted in The Nation that focusing on Sanders taking the lion’s share of youth votes effectively erases those young women who do support Clinton. Speaking at a New Hampshire rally Monday night, actress and model Emily Ratajkowski (who is 24 years old) put it like this:
“I want a female president so that I can say to my daughter one day, you too can become president of the United States. I believe in that symbolic importance. But I have seen symbolism in election, symbolism that fails the people that so desperately need the action to make change. I want my first female president to be more than a symbol, I want her to have politics that can revolutionize.â€

Because their credulous fools?
Because they feel he would require a lethal dose of Viagra to threaten them.
because they are about to graduate from college with $100k of student loan debt and a worthless degree in women’s stidies.
for many of them, destroying the country is their only salvation to the damage that they have done to their own lives.
Why?
Because they are cool with government being their provider.
It’s what socialism does.
If The Donald chooses Carly Fiorina as his running mate, Republicans would have the first woman vice president. And, after he leaves office you would have Carly in the batter’s box for President. A good deal?
I read that through, and I have no idea what point he’s trying to make. I wonder if there is some sort of translator I could put it through to understand?
Trumpie doesn’t like her face.
He may need to have it applied intravenously throughout in order to maintain one.
Love your post. Spot On!
Except Horny Toads deserve better.
He was probably indulging as he wrote his tome about women and men and sex.

I believe that Carly has proven she may be a face he could grow to like.
He's got plans for his young female draftees. It's gonna take a lot of sanders socialist stamina.
I am “Julia”...
This newsletter will come out, over and over again, once he wins the primary. He is a revolting scum.
Bern is a Sugar Daddy.
‘Cos they’re stupid?
One of my daughters is a Bernie supporter and a full blown communist. She graduated from college into the Obama economy, and voted for Obama.
She is an extraordinarily pretty woman. Where ever she goes, men hit on her. Usualy they leave notes asking that she call or send email. She looks like a super model. The kid was blessed. Tall, slim, very pretty face.
Her problem is her feminazi mother and grand mother are anti Christian and anti men.
Now that she’s a college graduate and not making 100 k a year, it’s because of men and greed and capitalism. Not because she took courses that have no employment value.
She sees Hillary as a “sell out”. She sees Bernie as authentic.
Bernie is her excuse for failure and her weapon to strike out at those who do succeed.
She is the classic feminazi.
