I think a Clinton presidency would set the women's movement back,

not propel it further. She is still a bad candidate. She's running her second bad campaign. Luckily, with the Internet, we are informed and have choices beyond the establishment dribble they'd love to limit us to. It has been satisfying seeing everything being hurled by her campaign backfire over and over again. She gives women a bad name. Go Bernie. He's a people person. Luckily, corporations don't vote.

We'll reinforce the 1% at the expense of the 99% and the rights and needs we face.

is due to cronyism and nepotism, not her talent. Yet the choreography would have us believe that Hillary is wonder woman....Once the façade is lifted one can see that she's nothing but a political hack.

5. The Bill Problem

Hillary is famous because of Bill and Hillary had the nomination to the New York Senate seat handed to her because of Bill. It's kind of tough to think that Hillary, if she becomes president, will have been elected 100% in her own right.

As a feminist, I object to returning the Sexual Harasser in Chief to the White House in any capacity. The thought of Bill as First Gentleman is puke-worthy.

So many fundamental flaws to her candidacy. I honestly don't understand why prominent feminists have been supporting Hillary for President for so many years.

That is not an example for mothers to give to their daughters.

Hillary is dragging many women in crossing ethical boundaries to do ugly attacks like her. MRA members will milk this for all its worth.
