I did not take the survey. I have known for twenty years who I want for President.
I will vote for Hillary Clinton.
I want a woman president. I want a woman president. I WANT A WOMAN PRESIDENT!!!
Beyond that I respect and admire her and feel she will make a good president. (though I wish she were less of a hawk.)
Because this sites member are largely somewhere along the spectrum of female, I thought there would be widespread support for Hillary. I am shocked, actually, by the number of Bernie supporters who have responded. I am old. I have waited all my life for a woman president. If Hillary is not elected, I may not live to see a woman elected. For the most of the rest of y'all who are lots younger, I guess the issue is less pressing, because you have more life left, and you can afford to wait.
But HELL, B-Fers! aren't you tired of waiting? Aren't you tired of watching less qualified and overly egotistical males get elected when there are well qualified women who do not even get nominated, encouraged or backed financially? Well I'm tired of waiting. I want a woman President NOW... THIS time around.
I do like his Bernie's politics, but I do not think a Socialist can get elected in the USA. Though he caucuses with the Dems, he is not one. I am a dyed in the wool, lifelong Democrat (since age 8 - really!), and I want a Democrat to be elected. I somewhat resent that he didn't run as a Socialist or Independent. If you believe in it, Run on it.
Anyway, just my two cents worth. Glad everyone is interested in the election. Go vote!!!
