I AM SO SICK OF PEOPLE BASHING ON HILLARY CLINTON!!!!
Enough of the sexist jokes! Enough of the snarky comments about her not leaving her husband being the reason that she can't be president!
For crying out loud, this is America. Oh, wait, yeah, it's America. The land where the smartest, most well-informed person gets the same number of votes as the any other person, or rather, any idiot. I mean, for the Iowa caucuses, people's decisions (some of the time) were based on which side had the best COOKIES!!!!!
Democracy is great, but shouldn't there be some sort of requirement of basic knowledge of at least ONE major issue that you agree with with your candidate?
I know, Hillary's not the most charismatic person. In fact, her interview a couple of months ago on Meet the Press ticked me off because she wouldn't directly answer ANY of the questions.
I supported Barack Obama until this week, during which I noticed SO much Hillary bashing that it almost made me want to support her because the people who bash her are such d-bags. Know what you're talking about when criticizing a candidate. It's about how well you trust them to carry out what they say they will and how much you agree with them, not whether he/she left his/her spouse.
