My conspiracy theory comment was misinterpreted in part IMHO. It was made on the heels of the FBI directors testimony to congress in which comments were made about a conspiracy regarding his decision------ I mean to question if a Bush-era republican FBI director is involved in a conspiracy to let Hillary off the hook? Too much. (I have paranoia issues, but it's not the conspiracy theory variety. I really don't believe in conspiracy theories in general.)
I know why Hillary is so hated (at least in part). One need look no further than pop culture of this summer.
Hillary is not perfect. I have my own personal issues with some of her actions. However, I fully support her run for the presidency. To be fair, no candidate would align 100% with my beliefs------not even Bernie. (And I love Bernie!)
I'm not voting for her simply because she's the best of the worst. I truly support many of her ideas and political views (but not all). I think she's incredibly experienced, but she is human and has stumbled upon the way.
And yes, I love Bill Clinton, too. No, he's not perfect either. Hillary is her own person and her presidency will be her own, but I truly believe that Bill will indeed have influence while he's the "First Lady" ;) ------and many great things happened in our country under his Presidency.
My goal in creating this thread was to create a positive thread where people could talk about why they support a candidate (Hillary) as I was getting weary of the negativity in every other political thread on the forum. I realize that not everyone supports her and that's ok. I'm ok with the questions about why I support Hillary. I just didn't want it to be a place of negativity against her. (I needed a bit more positivity and with all the negative political energy I am choosing to focus on the positives.)
Thank you all for being respectful. :)
