OpEd: I'm Glad Hillary Is Running »

Posted by: idyll 2 years, 11 months ago

What's so exciting about a candidate who I won't be voting for in the primary? Just check out all those pronouns in the first paragraph. Yes, it's a sexist thing: I'm overjoyed to see a woman running.

    I agree, it's great Hillary is runnung. Her past record will set her free from winning. To strength the ticket had Obana as V.P., then one lost will cover both.

        I agree, I am also very glad Hillary is running. Also happy that Barack Obama, and Bill Richardson is in the race as well.

        A female, a African American, and a Hispanic...thats called 'Diversity' and I love every bit of it.

        Well I would have to agree that a womem as President would be novel, couldn't do worse than the man in office now. BUT, Hillary is exactly as you describe another man, indecisive and flowing with the current.

        I want a president that goes shopping at the same store day in an day out with convictions. Knowing exactly what she wants to purchase without commercials having an effect on her decision. With Hillary she follows the ads for the purchase.

        Have to emphasize, Bill would look cure as first lady,

        irregardless of the crooks he pardoned as President. But, politics is politics so how can I abase him. DO NOT ELECT ANY INCUMBENTS UNLESS YOU HAVE OBSERVED CHANGES.

            It's true, Hillary may not have a set of male genitalia. All this means is that she doesn't have to think with them all the time, unlike people like you who have yet to move out of caves and learn how to walk upright.

                If a female black Hispanic lesbian ran for president, the author of this "article" would be in 7th heaven.

                  This article points out the very thing that makes politics bad. All a big game. The issues are secondary to winning. Politics are now being played, to the detriment of the country, but that's ok, it's just a game. There are people out there ready to say "GAME OVER". Is it really OK!!

                      I have no problem w/a woman president. Just not Hillary. I'd vote for Condi Rice any time over Shrillary. She's a Clinton. That should be enough to keep her out of the White House.

                          I'd vote Condi too! If you vote Hillary all you get is the same chicken s*** you had before. And she'll be worried about what ole Slick is doing instead of keepin her eye on the ball. You know deep down she is still mad at that SOB and won't ever trust him. She probably hates all men. And Slick is forever looking over his shoulder to see if Hillary is in the room. That kind of crap doesn't need to be in your neighborhood, let alone your White House. I can see it now, "Desperate WhiteHousewives". Coming soon to a ballot box near you!

                            On July 8, 1947 , witnesses claimed that an Unidentified object with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico. This is a well known incident that many say has been covered up by the US Air Force and the federal government.

                            You may NOT know that in the month of March 1948, exactly nine months after that historic date, Hillary Rodham, William Jefferson Clinton, Albert Arnold Gore, Jr., John F. Kerry, Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, Dianne Feinstein, Charles E. Schumer and Barbara Boxer were born.

                            See what happens when aliens breed with sheep?

                              I TOTALLY AGREE, IT'S ABOUT TIME FOR A CHANGE, A BLACK MAN, A WOMAN, AND A HISPANIC, GREAT CHOICES. IT'S ABOUT TIME THAT THE WHITE MAN STEPPED DOWN, AND LET SOMEONE ELSE RUN THE SHOW. SORRY GUYS THE WHITE MAN JUST DOESN'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO LEAD THIS COUNTRY ANYMORE. ALL WE HAVE SEEN THESE PAST FEW YEARS HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT LIES, CORRUPTION, AND SCANDLES. A WAR MADE UP OF LIES AND FALSE PRETENSES, AND MANY INNOCENT SOLDIERS KILLED JUST FOR REVENGE FOR A PAST SITUATION THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN. OUR COUNTRY LACKS TRUST AND HONESTLY, AND MOST OF ALL LEADERSHIP FOR ALL AMERICAN PEOPLE, NOT JUST THE WELL TO DO. WE NEED A LEADER WITH A HEART, AND SOUL, AND THE ABILITY TO LEAD THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, SO THAT ALL IS CREATED EQUAL. OUR COUNTRY IS A COUNTRY THAT IS DIVIDED INTO TWO GROUPS, THE RICH AND POOR. THIS IS NOT WHAT AMERICA STANDS FOR.

                              COME ON GUYS BE HONEST. HAVING A WOMAN PRESIDENT, IS A BIG HIT ON YOUR EGO. WHAT'S WRONG BOYS LOSING THAT CONTROL. SORRY SOME OF US WOMEN DO NOT BELIEVE THAT BULL ****** OF HONOR AND OBEY. THAT IS SOMETHING THE WHITE MAN CAME UP WITH IN ORDER TO HAVE CONTROL OVER THEIR BITCHES. WELL GET OVER IT. WOMEN ARE RISING UP, AND MEN WILL BE HONORING AND OBEYING US.

                                Democrats had better face a few facts. Hillary is running as a cross between our mom, and our nanny.She will have Biden, Barak Hussein Obama, and Edwards for breakfast. We already knew Edwards, and Bidens shortcomings, all she had to do was dig up Obama bin Sama's madrassas attendence, and the fact Obamas Daddy, step daddy, and Grandfather are all Muslim, and Americans dropped off his bandwagon by the thousands. The 08 Presidential election will be Clinton-Richardson (need to pick up the illegal alien vote) and Giuliani-McCain. We are looking for leaders not mommys, and daddys.
