(53 posts)I cannot support someone who is both a neo-conservative and a neo-liberal. And, Secretary Clinton is BOTH. What made her a terrible candidate in 2008 still persists. Hilary Clinton has continually supported the privatization of schools, I have no ideas which parts of the ACA she wants to keep. What she did in Honduras was a frightening travesty reminding me of what happened during when the Chicago boys brought fascist dictatorships to the southern cone of our hemisphere. What she did in Colombia as Secretary of State still gives me nightmares. HENRY KISSINGER is a fan. Her position on women's rights sadly extends only to bourgeois white women I am terrified about the environment and she does support fracking and although has said nothing about the Keystone pipeline (her actions as secretary of state also make me feel very leery). She did not want to even try to talk to and with Iran.
I hope she does have some really good strong primary challengers! I also would ask everyone to read several articles posted this week to help us remember http://www.racismreview.com/blog/2015/04/12/hillary-clinton-good-for-white-feminism/
