As a grass eating Bernie Bro let me say to the feminists of the board that

[Harmony Blue]

Hillary is not your friend or for woman's rights.

Hillary is a religious tradcon to the core.

[MineralMan]

2. Say, thanks for letting everyone know.

Really.

[auntpurl]

3. So you, as a man, are explaining to me, as a female feminist

which candidate I should support re: women's issues, and why?

I'm sure there's a term for that...it's right on the tip of my tongue...

[auntpurl]

5. Uh huh.

Sure.

[Jennylynn]

7. Yep Bubba

8. note: people of any sex shall not voice any opinion(s) of any matters...

that may be construed, especially not-textually, as 'telling' or '_____splaining' or otherwise 'condescendingly addressing' someone of another sex...even though it was merely an opinion...

thin skin knows no sex...so watch out...

10. so don't take the poster's word for it then...

Unlikely partnerships have become a Clinton trademark. Some are symbolic, such as her support for a ban on flag burning with Senator Bob Bennett (R-Utah) and funding for research on the dangers of video games with Brownback and Santorum. But Clinton has also joined the gop on legislation that redefines social justice issues in terms of conservative morality, such as an anti-human-trafficking law that withheld funding from groups working on the sex trade if they didn't condemn prostitution in the proper terms. With Santorum, Clinton co-sponsored the Workplace Religious Freedom Act; she didn't back off even after Republican senators such as Pennsylvania's Arlen Specter pulled their names from the bill citing concerns that the measure would protect those refusing to perform key aspects of their jobs—say, pharmacists who won't fill birth control prescriptions, or police officers who won't guard abortion clinics.

Clinton has championed federal funding of faith-based social services, which she embraced years before George W. Bush did; Marci Hamilton, author of God vs. the Gavel, says that the Clintons' approach to faith-based initiatives "set the stage for Bush." Clinton has also long supported the Defense of Marriage Act, a measure that has become a purity test for any candidate wishing to avoid war with the Christian right.

and on abortion

Again, I am where I have been, which is that if there's a way to structure some kind of constitutional restriction that take into account the life of the mother and her health, then I'm open to that. But I have yet to see the Republicans willing to actually do that, and that would be an area, where if they included health, you could see constitutional action.

11. Funny thing about opinions, everyone has one. No matter your gender or color or country

you are allowed to voice them. Be it women issues, race issues or healthcare that people in other countries don't have to struggle for. As a female feminist I agree with the poster 100%. Bernie has my back, Hillary does not.

22. His MRA lingo adds a certain je ne sais quoi, no?

Redpillers are totes adorbs.

9. Hillary's record on woman's rights is well known and established.

[leftynyc]

12. Good luck trying that line of attack

You're only hurting your candidate with this bullshit but whatever. Glad I never told my friends about DU - they'd bust a gut laughing at the nonsense being posted here day in and day out.

16. Neither the evidence nor you will persuade any Hillary supporters. They prefer Hillary the way you

may prefer Chicago style pizza over New York style pizza (or vice versa). Either way, it is a choice that is not based on the facts or evidence.

You could offer 1,00 facts as to why one style of pizza is better than the other, but -- at the end of the day -- most people have chosen their favorite style of pizza on a level that is not based on such facts.

Hillary supporters who actively post on a Democratic forum have chosen Hillary by a similar non-factual means.

You can offer 1,000 facts about why (a) Sanders' platform is actually a better reflection of their own values, (b) Hillary is disliked and distrusted at historically significant level by the exact sort of independent voters we need to join us to have any chance of a win in November, (c) Sanders is the only Democrat who is an outsider offering change in an election cycle where the voters clearly crave an outsider and change instead of the establishment status quo that Hillary promises, and (d) Hillary would be losing this campaign despite the full-court-press against Sanders by the Democratic establishment and the M$M but for the fact that the Bible Belt states were front-loaded at the beginning of the primary calendar - put these Bible Belt states at the back of the calendar, and Hillary's campaign looks like a lost cause having won fewer that one-third of the states.

None of those facts will matter because Hillary supporters have made their choice based on something other than facts.

Thanks!!!!!

20. No comment.

[Tarc]

19. Yes, because women need a man to explain feminism to them...

So, um, I'm sure they'll...appreciate that...

23. I will still support her if she is the nominee.

I think her supposed religion is about as genuine as her commitment to human rights, but the chance to elect a woman president is historic and would inspire generations to come (whether or not she were any good at it). Plus, there's the small matter of the GOP running nothing but corrupt bigots without useful accomplishments or agendas.

If you can't bring yoursrlf to vote for the Dem, squint and vote against the Republican.
