We have an opportunity to elect the first women as President of the United States I hope we aren't going to pick on small things and ignore that opportunity. Unless she is proven to be any different than any previous President your choices are elect the first women as President or Trump. You decide.


The first women president is likely to be remembered for quite a while to come. Do you really want that person to be Hilary Clinton?

Let me put it to you another way... If Bernie had been elected, it's highly likely the vice president would have been Elizabeth Warren. Elizabeth Warren would then have a great platform if she wanted to run for president. Wouldn't you prefer Elizabeth Warren was the first female president over Hilary Clinton?


Hey, India took this opportunity in the 70s, to not much avail. It didn't change the status of women and Indira Gandhi was a corrupt autocrat. A Clinton presidency is not a feminist milestone any more than the Queen's 90th birthday was.


Because voting for someone based on their gender is a good thing?

I am not looking forward to a choice between a corporate shill and a racist fool.
