Whatever, Jeb Bush is also an entitled piece of sh*t, this is just feminist dogma. Attacking Hillary = Sexism.

There is plenty to criticize Hillary Clinton on that is not sexist: her positions, the issues, her campaign (e.g. her handling of the email scandal), etc. The "entitled" attack is subtle sexism though, suggesting she is "entitled" because she was the wife of a former president, or because she is a woman, or because she "just acts that way."  She has earned her shot at the presidency: a proactive first lady of Arkansas and as FLOTUS, a two-time senator from New York, an accomplished tenure as Secretary of State, and her philanthropic work with the Clinton foundation total over 30 years in the public service; this dwarfs the accomplishments of virtually the rest of the field (if not everyone else).

Clinton has every right to call out sexist attacks against her (whether subtle or not so subtle); she's been on the receiving end of it for over two decades. She's been negatively branded as "ambitious" and "calculating" since the 90s, never mind that dozens of prominent male politicians in the same time period have been just as ambitious and just as politically expedient (hell, just look at Obama).

Maybe you all will argue that the "inevitability" argument is proof of her entitlement. Of course, to believe that, you have to ignore that it is a media fabrication that Clinton frequently downplayed, and is essentially an impossible bar to meet.

I won't challenge that Jeb is entitled though. He relied on the clout of the family name and ran to the private sector in between his bouts for office.

Why you love Clinton so much is beyond my understanding.

Anyway, Hillary Clinton is the Democrat female Mitt Romney. She is elitist, entitled, out-of-touch, disingenuous, scripted, artificial. There is nothing genuine, spontaneous, or compassionate about her personality or her actions. She has no heart. Candidates like that are not likeable and they fail to attract the popular support. She is no exception.
