OMFG who the fuck actually believes that shit!

Could Hillary be a warmongerer based on her vote some 15 years ago - who knows. Maybe, maybe not. Joe Biden voted the same exact way and yet he never once advised Obama to go to war.

But I'd rather spend the 8 years protesting the wars Hillary might start knowing that at least at home we have a President that stands for the same values to protect civil rights, better affordable healthcare and higher standards of education than to spend 8 years protesting EVERYTHING.

I think someone did analysis that found Hillary and Bernie agreed on something like 85-90% of the issues. I'll take that any day of the week over enabling any vote that could give that idiot Drumpf the keys to the White House.
