Ally House, I have said many times that when we elected President Obama it scared the hell out of white males, especially ones that tended to be insecure in the first place. Hillary Clinton was the most qualified person to ever run for president in my book but she was a woman and insecure white people (men and women) were groomed by Agent Chaos (my new name for the former guy) to hate and loath her. She still beat him by 3M votes and yet, we were stuck with him and may be again unless we get everyone to vote again! Hopefully, we can conquer the hate that he uncovered and emboldened in our country.

Colette, I looked at the 2008 Democratic primary as an interesting experiment: who was the lesser of evils, a Black man or a white woman. The Black guy got elected to two terms; the white woman (in the subsequent non-incumbent election) won by 3 million votes, but lost in the archaic Electoral College, and I got my answer.
