Per special request from Number23, I am cross-posting this here.
Leading ladies such as Viola Davis offer heartfelt endorsements in a video that compares the Democratic frontrunner to the characters from Rhimes hit shows

Rhimes along with Kerry Washington from Scandal, Ellen Pompeo from Greys Anatomy and Viola Davis from How to Get Away With Murder all offer heartfelt endorsements for Clinton in a dramatic video that compares the Democratic frontrunner to the strong female characters Rhimes has created on her shows.
I make television filled with the kind of characters I imagine we all can be, Rhimes says in the new ad.
Our characters are on television, Washington says.
But the real world has Hillary Clinton, Rhimes says.
Make more room UTB for some great females - in and out of their TV roles!

This level of selfishness and shortsightedness makes me very angry.

Maybe then.

Hillary just went up a few notches in my opinion. And all because of Ms. Viola.

All of those women are magnificent and incredibly talented, IMO. Viola Davis is especially so.
