Really? Maybe out of 100 legal voters in the US, 10 are "Hispanic". Too; even Latinos ain't reliably Democratic voters, that's more a Black thing. Plus more and more people want illegal aliens GONE.

Gosh, I'm so sorry for you. Perhaps you should take the time to look up the history of both Clinton's. I believe it will shock you into changing your mind if you do that.

And...Madeleine is so very bright and intelligent? NOT!!!! and never was.

Anyone with any intelligence and love of America knows one votes for the candidate that best represents the United States Constitution and will execute the duties and responsibilities of the POTUS's office under and within that Constitution in the best interest of the citizens of America...regardless of ethnicity, gender or party.

I have stated elsewhere that this party business has evolved into a terrible nightmare that is very destructive to America. My answer is to ban political parties and have every candidate for every office run on their own platforms/experience. We don't need political parties to raise obscene $'s and spin crap to the news media which shadows the "real" candidate. I also believe that this political science crap classes in educational institutions should be totally dumped. That does nothing but twist young minds into stupidity on the subject of politics.

The political consultant class is getting rich off of candidates. First they get a salary, then a cut off of all that is raised and another cut off of ad placement.

That's why candidates need to raise so much money. The whole system stinks.

I was listening to NPR yesterday and they were talking about Hillary's big "help the middle class" speech.

I just don't see her connecting with the middle class when she doesn't drive, doesn't shop and has been essentially one of the elite for 2 decades or so.

But I am willing to set that aside and look at her actual track record and lo and behold she's deep in bed with wallstreet, corporations and was a bigtime NAFTA supporter which off-shored a bunch of those middle class jobs. On top of that she's helped flood the US labor pool with illegals which ALSO has suppressed wages for blue collar laborers. (Along with the repubs of course)

If these are important things to you as a voter and you are choosing Hillary over someone like Sanders then I cannot follow your logic because she's now promising to be the opposite of what she's been since forever....are you going to buy that?

This white female doesn't need convincing. Would not ever vote for that lying, sniveling woman. I don't know any other woman in my personal circle who is voting for her either.

'Course - I live in Idaho. And of course I remember reading comments on this site last election about the
self-loathing of conservative women, and their inability to make decisions re: national elections without the aid and influence of their husbands.

Morons.
