Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: From 60+ staffers: Open Letter to the Editors on the recent coverage of Amy Klobuchar [View all]PatrickforO
(15,398 posts)69. Nice post.
I very much felt this was a smear against Klobuchar due to the whole double standard thing we have about dynamic, forceful, no-nonsense women being looked at much differently than dynamic, forceful, no-nonsense men.
The important thing is where she stands on issue, how and where she's willing to compromise to move the nation forward, and what she is not willing to compromise. A leader sets the vision.
Here is Amy Klobuchar's: As president, she would "heal the heart of our democracy and renew our commitment to the common good."
That's a pretty darned good vision.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

I loved her being totally honest with the college students about "free college". Refreshing.
