and while it was easy to see why the author feels the way she does, she is basically saying she supporting Hillary because she is an empowered woman who has had to put up with a lot of shit - just like every other woman who's made it has had to suffer through.

I'm not sure that's a great way to choose a presidential candidate.

The author says nothing about how she supports HRC's economic policies, admires her skills at diplomacy, respects her knowledge of foreign affairs and values her personal relationships with significant foreign dignitaries, etc.

Plus, she finds Hillary supporters of be annoying and doesn't even have a cookie recipe.

I don't get it
