Bernie Sanders
In reply to the discussion: Divide and Conquer [View all]NYC_SKP
(68,644 posts)7. My problem with her is that she professes to elevate women, by just being a good old boy...
She plays the shitty game of politics as slickly as Bill did and does, never elevating the discussion or the profession, just playing the game.
And then pretends that this somehow helps women everywhere.
A real fighter, man or woman, would elevate politics, and a really great woman candidate would prove that she can do it differently, and better, than men have been doing it.
In this sense, she's bringing down women.
IMHO.

She, like Obama, will have a chance to make earth-shattering changes in this country.
