And in today's political climate that is a negative is because how?
It isn't and a strong woman should be admired, not vilified.
People are either being disingenuous or they are naive. Of course people send small donations to Hillary, but the press has been reporting that Bill Clinton is worth millions for years, so it's a lot easier to get the average Joe to send money to someone who looks like their grandpa.
I respect Bernie Sanders, but I wish his supporters would remember what they were taught in school. Socialism is when the government owns everything and distributes goods according to needs. It doesn't work and is not the principle on which our country was built.
And in today's political climate that is a negative is because how?
I was joking-but if you think it's a positive for a politician to say one thing and do another I would vehemently disagree. We have had enough of that, so when someone like Bernie Sanders comes along, who has been saying the same things for decades, with his actions backing his words I personally am going to jump at the chance to vote for him.
It's similar to why I supported Ron Paul in 2012. These are honest people, which is such a rarity in today's political climate.
The biggest problem in the US today is the lack of accurate representation for the American people. The cause of that is monetary influence from nationless corporations/banks, lobbyists, special interest groups, etc. Either a politician represents them or they represent the American people. All evidence points toward Hillary falling in the former camp, like 99% of politicians-so this isn't even an attack on Hillary specifically. It's just how things are done today-but it's destroying our country. It's hard for most politicians to turn down money while in office and career prospects for when they leave, especially when they look around and see 99% of politicians doing the same thing.
Hillary versus Trump would be a complete choice between two evils. Sanders versus Trump would be a pretty obvious choice for most American people-polls back this up too, so the "electability" argument is hogwash.
Jill Stein is another honest politician I respect immensely and that is who I am voting for if it comes down to Hillary/Trump.
Hillary at Trump's wedding in 2005. She had front pew seating.

Many friends that are {D}s refuse to vote for Hillary and already have mind made up that if Bernie loses they are Voting for Stein. I respect them for that it shows they have a conscience, I mean how do you go from Bernie railing against bankers and Wall st to Hillary the banker wall street darling? If people that support Bernie and vote for Hillary it means their stand of taking on the establishment was for nothing.
Stein could get enough wind on her back to make a difference in a close state. I have seen her and like her, she leads her party well and is very smart and capable. I agree with her on a couple of issues but not enough to vote for her but I do respect her and those who choose to vote for her, she is a good 3rd party choice for those that lean left.

All these so-called 'strong women' as portrayed by the mainstream media are almost always manipulative liars like Clinton. If I am provided with an honest and reputable alternative like Bernie Sanders I will go with the alternative over the manipulative lawyer/banker types from EITHER gender.
So? Are you saying that being friendly with people who have different political views is "evil?" That's a shame.
Not at all. I am calling her out for being friends with Trump specifically. He has no consistent "political views", he just seems like an awful, terrible person.
Anyone notice this now? In her speeches she seems to be repeating exactly the things Bernie Sanders stands for. In fact tonight watching the South Carolina coverage she was asking voters to go to her webpage and donate
Thats not really an original thought of Sanders..
Every candidate since the invention of the internet, has asked people to go to their website to donate.

Birds of a feather flock together....
Really? You are doing exactly what the Republicans did in 2008 when they accused Obama of "palling around with terrorists."
Also, I would NEVER want you to be on any jury. Guilty by association is totally judgmental and prejudicial.
