Clinton becomes more disgusting by the week. She is one despicable human being - if even that. The unquenchable hunger for money and power distorts humans and their humanity. Just look at her husband. What a wretched soul he aged into.

And Jill Stein has really not even the vaguest understanding of the policies she is 'promoting'.

She is not the savior you are looking for.

But I can see how those with ideas and no plans to implement them would be attracted to her. The height of hypocrisy is thinking that you are better than others with a vote for Stein.

Ever since I first learned about Red Baiting, I've always thought it quite despicable. Now that neo-liberals have applied the tactic, it is even more despicable. I believe the Nazis used similar tactics to take control of the government and the loot. It isn't only the neo-right and fascists that use Red Baiting as a tactic to gain and hold on to power.

What a despicable lot of ... whatever they are.

She isn't a "savior". Wow, I'm not sure who would claim that. She's simply better than the alternatives.

I doubt we will see many elementary school kids singing her praises.

Your statement did not address one word of my post. But, whatever.

Without saying it, Richrf basically said he thought your premise was bunk.

The post above is the post he quoted. Nothing to do with red baiting.

I think he mis-quoted the wrong post.

This isn't about looking for saviors, this is about voting for better options, if you think corrupt Hillary deserves your vote, then vote for her, but don't act like you don't know why other liberals are disgusted by her and have no interest in voting for Hillary.

Neo-liberals together with neo-cons have dinner much more than destroy middle America. They've destroyed the lives of millions of people in South America, Africa, the Middle East and SE Asia. And for what? What is the reason for the existence of their miserable lives?

When one votes for Clinton's neo-liberals, one votes for 62 people who control the world's wealth, and it is getting worse. Note what happened under Obama. Clinton and her despicable band will continue to do the same. All cut from the same cloth.
