However, speaking to the liberal donors, he said he is confident that the country is ready to get over its hangup.

"There's a reason why we haven't had a woman president," he said, according to a press poll report on the event. "We as a society still grapple with what it means to see powerful women.

Just saw a story this weekend saying Americans don’t like smart women.

I thought the SNL, “Super-Smart Policy-Wonk Hillary” characterization died with “wiping” a server.

Same way the Obama version expired on a golf course.

Obumble’s delusion is of “America”. The nimrod doesn’t even use our proper name because it denotes strength and unity of purpose, and his intent is to weaken us, and lump us in with a basket of lesser countries (not talking about you, Canada).

We are the “United States of America”.

I have taken to correcting my friends and acquaintances who have fallen into the lazy habit of referring to us as simply “America” or even worse, “’murica”. If you want to save on syllables, the “USA” will do.

After 8 years of anyone who criticizes Obama being accused of racism, we are supposed to want to have 8 years when anyone who disagrees with the Hildabeast is accused of sexism?

Jezebel was a strong woman, but she was a saint compared to Hillary.

Obama trashed his white grandmother in an address to the nation, accusing her of racism. She was a “typical white person” after all.
