(7,549 posts)but she is not in my heart of hearts who I would choose first in the primary. My choice is still saying no and unfortunately she probably means it, but I keep wishing it could be different.
My positives for Hillary right now are:
That at least I might get to see a woman elected President in my life time. I know I will probably get flack for saying that, the whole voting with the vagina criticism, but given all the set backs the GOP is trying to hand women it would be nice to see a woman kick their elephant rears in the Presidential election.
And at the very least I think she'd at least stand up for civil rights.
However my big negative is the same as some others:
IMHO, the only way for the country to get back on it's feet and stay that way , is for us to elect someone who can stand at the Presidential podium and forcefully and persuasively argue to the American Public that supply economic theory has been tried and tested over and over again with devastating consequences for the long term and it needs to be labeled failed once and for all, and trash canned forever and ever. I can't see Hillary being either able or willing to be the one to convince voters we need to stick a fork in it any more than Obama could. They both agreed with too much of it and admired one of it's foremost cheerleaders ever, 666 Ronald Wilson Reagan.
