Again, I think she would have made an awesome president. But just like Bernie, while they like each other personally, their supporters respectively had too many "all or nothing" morons. I think Bernie would have made a great president too.
Morons? If you only have one candidate you're willing to vote for, it has to be all or nothing. I wouldn't vote for someone I didn't like just so someone else I don't like doesn't win.

Well what I did was search the Hillary Clinton emails on WikiLeaks for reference to atheism and atheists. Aside from a shared email saying that Bernie Sanders can be attacked for being an atheist (which he isn't anyway) it's all a bunch of anti atheist mail mail forwarding. Suggesting a new faith adviser who is clearly hostile to atheists and the like.
As far as I know nobody has written a nice tidy article about it, but to me it seems razor clear. You can search the email database yourself on WikiLeaks.
I just checked. https://wikileaks.org/clinton-emails/?q=...archresult I didn't see anything you mentioned. Do you have a direct link?

What do you think she would of done that was terrific?
I think she would have improved, NOT MADE PERFECT, but improved heath care, and wages. But again, I admit, I can only speculate, because democrats since Reagan have been hamstrung by the GOP.

What do you think she would of [sic] done that was terrific?
1. Not suck Putin's cock.
2. Not denigrate the most important military alliance of modern times.
3. Not confiscate children for misdemeanors committed by their parents.
4. Protect consumers.
5. Continue health insurance assistance for people who cannot otherwise afford it.
6. Treat enemies like enemies and allies like allies.
7. Not govern the most powerful nation the world has ever seen based what television says she do.
8. Grasp the difference between Keynesian economics and neo-mercantilism and act accordingly.
9. Appoint/nominate people who have experience and ideas.
10. Be less orange.
That'll do to go on with.

Well that makes you the exception not the rule IMO. I think most people, myself included, walk into the booth to vote against candidates far more often then they show up to vote for one.

Different how? Because remember, she did win last time. Once you've won NY, you've won it. Getting the Bernie folks to vote for Hilary instead wouldn't have done jack shit in the states where most of them live. The states that went red did so because the orange nightmare got the uneducated rednecks to show up like they've never shown up before. Bernie sure as shit wasn't going to steal any of that vote away from him.

I've never seen the point. The lesser of two evils still isn't my guy or gal. Now, I would do that if I kind of liked someone. However, I never really kind of like Hillary as a politician, either. I don't mind her as a person, and think she's clearly smart. I just don't think she's all that different from the average Republican.
