Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI just found something out about Hillary and now I am forced not to give her my support.
Her favorite color is yellow. How dare she like the color of happiness, wisdom, and imagination!
What am I to do?

(30,058 posts)Guess it is hard to hang out in the alleys with just a trench coat on and a downward out look on life. I would not expect to find the alley full of happy thinking folks. Oh, well, tomorrow will be the best day of my life, can't change those in the past anyhow.

(14,779 posts)In China the color White represents the West, Red is South. Black is North. East is Green/Blue (China tends to see both as the same color, Blue-Green color differentiation is the hardest of the primary colors).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_in_Chinese_culture
Yellow is the Color for Center, and under Chinese doctrine the Center was China, so Yellow is China's color. Thus my joke that since Hillary likes Yellow she must be the Candidate of and for China. China and Yellow has a deep connection. The Huang He River of China, is often called the Yellow River in English (Which is also a good translation of the Chinese Name into English). The Yellow river in its lower 1/3 is the color of Yellow do to the type of soil it goes through as it flows into the ocean. Since the Yellow River is where Chinese Civilization started, yellow became the color for China.

White is the color for the west. Russia adopted white from the Mongols who had adopted the Chinese Color Scheme, assigning White to the Golden Horde of the Mongols that ruled Russia. When Russia became independent and then took over the Golden Horde, Russia also assumed the Color of White for the Imperial Color of Russia.
I am less familiar with the other Chinese Colors and how other countries treat them, I have read the Mongols, living north of China tended to use Black, for that is the Chinese Color for the North, but I have NOT found a reliable source for that information (unlike Russia and White, which has a long history of using white as its Imperial Color). Through Green/Blue would be the color of the Ocean to China's East.
Red seems to come from the Red Soil that turns the Red River red as it flows through Hanoi in Vietnam. Thus this seems to be where the Chinese adopted Red as the Color for the South.

(55,147 posts)But when one is bombarded with OP's about someone who hasn't even declared yet it makes me wonder the ulterior motives of those people. So yes I will from time to time defend a person I happen to like when she is raked through the mud from posts that sounds like they come straight (pun intended) from a right wing site.
Now who's cause is hurting who?

(17,796 posts)we should just be quiet and listen to the only choice we'll be given.
Still don't understand how saying we should have more options is so disrespectful.

(17,796 posts)there's only one obvious choice, if not Hillary we lose, its her turn, etc, etc,....
I've have my concerns about her running and the more they get knocked around, the more I dig my heels in.
Still waiting to hear how that's "raking some one trough the mud". If I'm allowed my viewpoint I agree, let's focus on '14 then move on to '16.
If my opinion is not allowed.....well that's another ball of wax entirely.
And its off to bed, work comes too early Monday.

Why do I think we're going to have this dance for the next couple of years?
Once again, what is so disrespectful about wanting a honest choice?
See, no boogie men. Just a simple question.

(45,319 posts)such bigotry, then they kind of, sort of support equality. When exactly did Hillary stop saying her religious views caused her to oppose equal rights for LGBT people? Has it been a year yet?
She needs to speak about equality very quickly. Her book praises the leaders of The Family, which is involved in the Ugandan pogroms. This is not acceptable behavior.

Anyway, why support or care about the support of others for someone who has not entered the race?
