Bill Clinton speaking in Nashua NH

6. if I can bring myself to vote for Hilary in the general, it'll be in spite of him, not because of it

I try to be a consistent radical feminist, and it is outrageous than anyone would ever suggest Sanders has been sexist or privileged and not call out Bill for his consistent exercise of the male privilege of functional polygamy and seeking younger partners.

I hate to see him be so entitled to have women on the side as if he's doing a woman as powerful as Hilary a favor by staying married to her because, gee, she's his own age. Why does he get to grow old and fat while she is forced to look 20 years younger and is rendered neutered in the press--why does he get to get a wink wink for having lots of female partners while we assume she should be grateful?

I can't stand the woman's politics, but it's outrageous that the best she can do is keep a philandering male by her side because a strong woman over 40--who still looks as good as she does--is considered sexually abhorrent or something.

I wish she had dumped him and found a faithful guy her own age (or younger) who adores her. Yes, Bill's smart, but I have no doubt she was equally the brains behind his presidency during the 90s. She's already been president--she just didn't get the credit for it. I give her credit for it, which is why I don't want to RE-ELECT her.

But I'll take her any day over her husband. She deserves better.
