Our Democratic Presidents and Their Sexual Peccadillos [View all]

So Democratic Presidential candidates must be sexually pure and admirable? Really?

FDR - Long-term affair with a woman other than his wife.
JFK - Multiple affairs, including with Marilyn Monroe
LBJ - Several affairs, including a 20+ year one with Madeleine Brown
Bill Clinton - We all remember

Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama are notable for their faithfulness.

The country looked the other way. So, now, we're eliminating candidates who have kissed somebody's hair or rubbed noses with someone without asking permission? Really?

While a philandering, pussy-grabbing asshole sits in the White House? Really?I

Do we even care who wins in 2020? Really?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

All that's needed is a photo, Corgigal Apr 2019 #22

She is saying that he should step aside for a female candidate. Eko Apr 2019 #18

Are you equating consensual affairs with allegations of UNWANTED touching? guillaumeb Apr 2019 #27

And what counts as unwanted "touching"? Some cultures kiss and hug strangers. McCamy Taylor Apr 2019 #35
