    That made no difference. The same outcome would have happened given the manipulation of the Electoral College, this "gadget" that has to go.

    She made a smart-move. Next time around, with Donald Dork showing how fully incompetent as a PotUS that he is, Elizabeth will have a better chance.

    Such is fate ...

    ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY

    Been there, done that. Made no difference.

    The Replicant majority in the HofR manipulated Obama as well. When he asked for more Stimulus Spending in 2010 in the midst of the Great Recession), they said "No" hoping that high unemployment would oust him in the 2012 elections.

    Didn't work, did it? As a result, nonetheless, no new jobs were created from 2010 to 2014. (See the Employment-to-population Ratio history here.)

    And it does demonstrate to the world how much the Replicants are willing to manipulate political outcomes in order to obtain their ends. Which is purely and simply the political dominance of the Replicant Party.

    Any one calling that a "democracy" is a damn fool ...

    First of all the link is whining about not being able to pay the bills on minimum wage. What this ignores is the fact that it is not because wages are too low but because people wish to live beyond their means and then whine to the government about their own bad choices.

    You ca live well on minimum wage if you do not try to buy a mcmansion and an SUV and a sportscar and two wide screen TVS and the latest android phone all while trying to feed 2,3,or 4 kids.

    IF you try to live beyond your means then it is your own damn fault and no one owes you anything.

    Many people learned this when the housing bubble crashed and started selling off the crap they accumulated and moved in to smaller more efficient homes an cut their spending.They learned to live in a frugal manner and not spend so much and what does the government do in response? They try to outlaw tiny homes and living off grid and creating other dis - incentives to force people to start spending again. The point being we need no government assistance we need to be left alone. The average person can fix their own problems far better than the president or you or anyone else can do it for them.

    Second of all a president with a vagina will fix none of this simply by virtue of being female or perhaps you can explain why having tits makes one a better president.

    Hillary lost fair and square because she was corrupt and a pig and we all knew it and she was the worst choice those are facts.

    She is as bad a narcissist who is still touring the world whining about why she lost and has never admitted that she lost because she is an incompetent fool

    You need it more than he does as his response was spot on.

    Hillary is the worst narcissist she cannot admit she lost due to her own failure and has spent the last two years whining and blaming others. She is a misogynist and a cry baby elitist.

    There is no reason to believe women make better political leaders than men. Two female presidents have been impeached and removed from office in the last few years - South Korea and Brazil. That doesn't prove that women in general make poor leaders. It always depends on the person, not the sex.

    Dredge up something better than Hillary Clinton, then. Easy peasy. I've not seen a woman hit a glass ceiling in the party primaries.

    Is the Rabbi correct that one third of Bernie supporters will NOT vote for Hillary?

    It isn't actually time for anything other than a competant President that cares more about America and it's people than his own purse.

    "Despite being cheered as a progressive hero, Warren’s entire career is filled with politically opportune waffling and a distinct lack of a moral compass.

    Here are just a few of the lowlights Warren would prefer you didn’t know about.


    • She was a registered Republican until 1996 (that doesn’t get talked about much, does it?). Warren claimed she left the party because it was becoming too cozy with Wall Street. Ironically, she is now backing a candidate who got rich giving paid speeches to Wall Street execs.
    • Warren finds religion when it suits her. She speaks glowingly about her United Methodist heritage and Christian values to appeal to middle America. But she enthusiastically supports abortion (including public funding for it). The United Methodist Church, for the record, categorically rejects abortion as a means of birth control and preaches the “sanctity of unborn human life.”
    • Warren preaches about the ills of the banking industry and the importance of financial responsibility. But she spent a good part of her career training the next generation of bankruptcy lawyers – you know, the ones who run cable TV ads at 2 a.m.
    • Despite her crocodile tears for people who lost their homes during the real estate market crash, Warren and her family bought and sold foreclosed houses for big profits.
    • Worse still, Warren was extremely critical of Hillary Clinton when it was politically fashionable. In a 2003 book, Warren bluntly accused Clinton of putting the interests of fat-cat donors ahead of constituents while Clinton was serving as senator.

    I wish my local diner served waffles like these! And this is just the short list."

    https://thehornnews.com/unfit-serve-shocking-truth-elizabeth-warren/

    And this doesn't include her false claims to AmerIndian heritage or her outrageous statement about entrepreneurs not getting rich on their own.

    I'm not sure it's even worth debunking her claims about the minimum wage, but just in case, here you go:

    "Minimum wage advocates often claim that a minimum wage is needed to lift struggling families out of poverty. Not true. As the Bureau of Labor Statistics has noted, the majority of minimum wage workers are teenagers, college students, or the second-earner in a two-income family — not a poor household head struggling to support his or her family."

    "And make no mistake, the economic damage will be significant. In 2014, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that raising the national minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to $10.10 an hour in 2016 and then allowing it to rise by inflation from there would cost as many as 1 million workers their jobs. One million.

    Yes, wages would go up by a big amount: $31 billion. But only 19% of that would go to families earning below poverty. Fully 29% would go to families earning three times the poverty rate. So raising families from poverty isn't a real argument for a minimum wage hike. It's a false emotional appeal."

    The drop in standard of living is due to the Democrats, specifically the "progressives". Princess Pocahontas Warren is a leader of that failed ideology.

    You're looking for some modern-day political Jesus Christ to save America?

    Good luck on that one.

    Elizabeth is one helluva smart lady, and you are obviously misinformed of her most recent pronouncements. You should get on her mailing list, from where I obtained the excerpt I posted here above. (Which shows exactly where the lady stands in America's political firmament.)

    Your ignorance of her political stance is nobody's fault but your own. She is definitively Left-of-center where in the very same vein as Barack Obama. Only she's a woman.

    And THAT, I'll bet, is your problem ...

    We dont need a “female” president any more than we needed a blavk president in 2008

    Warren is no more qualified because of her genitalia than obama was because of his skin color

    There are lot of things you evidently haven't "seen", if all you got is this drivel above to show because Hillary Clinton is one smart lady.

    And clearly much smarter than you ...

    I will remind you that she DID win the popular-vote, which goes forgotten in this debate-temple of misogynous commentary regarding the ex-First Lady.

    It was the undemocratic trickery of the Electoral College that maneuvered Donald Dork into the presidency.

    (Not bad, 5 presidents over two-hundred years who made it into the White House when they had lost the popular vote!)

    And most Americans think, "'Well, that's the way the cookie crumbles". But the EC is NOT a cookie.

    It is a perversion of the popular-vote that is the ONLY good/true/correct/honest way to elect any politician.

    As demonstrated in every political election in America except one. The Presidency ... !

    Well, it would be nonetheless nice to "see first hand" how well an American First-Lady as PotUS would do, doncha think?

    So far, given all other nations who have had a female executive (including presently Great Britain!), supposedly the Greatest Nation on Earth hasn't ever had the balls to elect a female president.

    Pun Intended ... !

    lol

    I know very well where she stands, and the only people dumber than her in Congress are Pelosi and Waters.

    Warren's lifetime ACU rating is 3.17%, making her one of the most extremist Democrats in the Senate, although since no Democrat rates higher than 8%, that pretty much makes all Democrats extremist. The Republicans are far more varied, measuring anywhere from 48-98% lifetime ratings.

    Why not. The more the merrier!

    She's one helluva smart lady. I don't particularly care for her politics - but that is not the question.

    The question is, "When will women get fed-up enough with the lackluster political competence of some male presidents and try to do something about it!"

    Where's our Merkel? Where's our Theresa May? Where's our Indira Gandi?

    There are women who have presence in both chambers of Congress, but not any that care to run for President. And this is likely due to manner in which that particular office is filled ...

    Merkel is busy letting the indigenous Germans be overrun by Muslims.
    Theresa May is busy defying the British voters wish for withdrawal from the EU.
    The oh-so-peace loving Indira Gandi was busy building nuclear bombs so India could join the nuclear arms race.
