Attention Hillary PRIMARY voters only!

I would support her if she comes out swinging mad.

EDIT: Part of me is sad that when a woman finally becomes president, it'll be probably be someone else. Even if it's a woman who's better at politics than her, who has all the positions I agree with, who is younger, who has a lot more enthusiastic rallies, and so on, it will be very sad that it's not Hillary. It feels like cultural appropriation, someone taking her place. Hillary will always be the one who cut the path through the patriarchy with her very flesh and bone, her existence, just for some other woman to walk through. Pretty disgusting, actually.

You actually believe amy female president is (basically) stealing from her efforts? Did Clinton steal from the efforts of Shirley Chisholm?

To the extent that Chisholm advanced women's status in politics, of course. Every daughter stands on the shoulders of those that went before. But Hillary really ran the gauntlet. Not just her, but her entire generation. It almost breaks my heart that some Gen X/Millenial/post-Millenial snot who went through 1/10th of the misogyny she went through may break the glass ceiling, but alas it's inevitable.

But isn't that true of everything? Obama didn't have it as bad as civil rights marchers, who didn't have it as bad as freedmen, etc.?

So if Elizabeth Warren is elected, it won't be as bad because she's a fellow Boomer?

Women didn't have the right to vote when Victoria Woodhull ran. They're a majority of the voters today. Hillary had no excuse.

Good point, yes I would say so.

[GoTfan]

The amount of people commenting yes is actually quite alarming.

[hueylong]

Barring some pretty exceptional circumstances, I would not.

Some people never learn I guess.
