(13,297 posts)To many very religious people, she is basically saying 'if you don't vote for Hillary, consider yourself unworthy of God's love' and there are a lot of very religious women out there who probably won't think that is the most benevolent of comments when it is inserted into an attack video by the GOP.

(893 posts)Where does this bastardized reasoning that "all women must vote for women, regardless of political beliefs" lead us?
Here...
It's satire, but it draws a pretty straight line from Hillary using that faulty logic to far more dangerous women in politics...

If you know anyone on Bernie's team, this is something she/he should work in to his spiel.

other women when she supported and advocated Bill's Welfare Reform Bill? That was a pander to the Newt Gingrich's Congress if ever there was one.
Poor women were knocked off welfare w/out jobs, job training or child care especially if they lived in the South and were Black. Recent research shows they are now poorer than ever because of this legislation.
Here's a quote from a Bill Moyers show about this from 2015 based on a book called: $2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America
This disturbing trend ($2.00 per person per day) can be traced to the 1996 welfare law, which has gradually but inexorably gutted the cash assistance safety net for families with children. Attention to this often neglected side of our nations extreme economic inequality is especially timely as policymakers from both parties consider reauthorizing the 1996 welfare law. As the book vividly shows, we are long overdue to take a different path one that upholds our nations values, including our responsibility to protect and empower the most vulnerable by eliminating extreme poverty.

Guess there's a special place reserved in hell for Hillary because of what she did to these women?

Voting FOR Hillary BECAUSE she's a woman is sexist, not feminist.
So yeah, as a 56 y/o well-informed progressive women, Senator Sanders has my full support.
