No, not in the slightest - okay, maybe slightly, but feminist isn't what I think of when I see or hear Hillary Clinton.

Elizabeth Warren strikes me as more of a feminist than Hillary Clinton, but still not really.

Rachel Maddow, OTOH, definitely strikes me as a feminist. If she would drop the attitude I could probably watch her and if she ditched the bias too I could definitely watch her.

I think this thread has brought out the true colors of a lot of Trump supporters. What they really are afraid of is that a woman might be capable of becoming President of the United States ! News for you, that Neanderthal thinking went out decades and decades ago, some of you are just to stubborn to admit it or accept it. Barefoot and pregnant are what some men think a woman's lot in life should be, but not all of us.

After all, we men have done SUCH a great job of screwing up the world so far, how much worse can a woman make things ? But what do you expect from Trumpees, their fearless leader feels the same way about women.

Yes, you can judge her ideas and her record, but for a person who does not rant and rave and act like a buffoon in general, I don't see how you can judge her personality.
Well you are obviously basing your opinion on her from "a few minutes in an interview", she doesn't give the media the time of day for spontaneous questions and answers. So basically all we see is canned interviews and speeches.

Is she afraid to be interviewed by the American people who have serious questions?

Oh give it a break. "This woman" does not want Hillary elected simply because she's a women.

Only weak minded women would cast their vote for Hillary based on her gender. Only geeky chauvinistic men would talk about women like you do. Smart men and women don't have to prove anything to you, and they are smart enough to understand gender is NOT a reason to put someone in office. Dear lord!

Not sure what YOU were reading, but it evidently wasn't my post ! I said NOTHING about Hillary needing to be elected because she is a woman, I simply stated that this is 2016 and the thinking of some men is archaic and out of touch with reality. Where you got that "chauvinistic men like you" BS is beyond me.

I think you better start reading posts better before you start criticizing someone.

You're way off topic, that's not what this thread is about. OP didn't address that point at all, she disparaged and dissed strong women bosses and feminists, called them femi-nazis.

It's part of the 'Take America Back' thinking. Back... back before there were women bosses, back before women got it into their heads to run for president, back when hand-grabby white men ran businesses. I'm a woman and I've had bad women bosses too but Hillary just isn't tapping into that nerve for me.

In reality, Hillary shouldn't remind anyone of a boss they have or had unless that boss was fired. I have never worked anywhere that would tolerate the hateful and unethical behavior that Hillary exhibits.
