2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Uppity Liberals [View all]A Simple Game
(9,214 posts)were Hillary supporters in '08. I know a few on DU that were viciously anti-Hillary back then. You wouldn't know it now.
My theory is that these people just want a minority President, they don't care what minority, they don't care how good a President they would be, they just want a minority President.
Personally I'm glad we finally had a Black President and and despite some disappointments over all give him a passing grade. I would like to see a woman President and think one could bring new and much needed qualities to the job. I could vote for a lesbian, gay, transgender, bisexual, anything at all for President. I do not consider gender, past or present, or sexual orientation, a qualification for or against the job. But I will not vote for anyone pro-war to be President no matter what else they may bring to the table. Especially one that was pro-war for political reasons.
