I'll start first. you state age, location, why you dislike hillary
I'm 29, white, from NYC,
What i dislike:the only presidents I have been offered since I have been old enough to vote are Bill Clinton, George W Bush.
I dont want to go back to being 18 and having the Clintons back. Whats next after Hillary leaves office, george W's daughter runs for president against Chelsea?
We need a new president with ho connections or family in past presidents.
Hillary is old washington and needs to go
Reason # 2 When Hillary ran for senator of NY, I voted for Rick Lazio who ran against her. I felt at the time she was very plastic, fake and we needed a NYER in senate not a woman form Arkansas making believe shes a NYER.
Reason # 3 : Bill Clinton was offered a rent free brownstone in Harlem to live, He turned it down and moved to Westchester NY where its 95% white. SOme black president, more fake
Reason #4 Do not respect Hillary for standing by while Bill Clinton had affairs with paula jones, jennifer flowers, monica lewinksy.
Clinton humilated his wife over and over again, getting b-jobs in the white house.
Any strong woman would have divorced him
She either is a weak woman who likes abuse or does not care about him at all and only cares about her career which is even scarier.
Reason #5
After Sept 11, she did not go to any funerals of the victims of 9/11, as her co senator Schumer went to one everyday along with Mayor Guilani, and Bloomberg.
She was booed at the 9/11 concer and only went to 1 funeral after it made press she didnt go
Shes a heartless person. wow, everyone keeps asking this question-
1.she is liar
2. untrust worthy.
3.not qualified
4. manipulating and cold
5. no morals, class or scruples
6.she is mean
7.she is a socialist
8.she will raise taxes so high we will slip into a depression
9.universal healthcare- our country would collapse due to medicine rationing, illness and the doctor and nurse shortage would be even worse
10.white water Age-30

1) Her answers are forced and rehearsed.
2) She does not inspire people, except for those who are blinded by her gender.
3) Her "political" vote for Iraq.
4) The horrible campaign she has run against Obama. If you want to know how someone will lead, look at their campaign.
5) I don't see how she will bring the country together when so many Republicans despise her.
I won't include this as an answer, but that laugh! UGH! shes not bill I think it's WRONG to state that Democrats dislike her. They just like Obama MORE. If it comes to it, they'd support her...but not all of them, not the young voters that only voted in the primaries b/c of Obama, not the independents... so if she's a better president you don't want to vote for her because you want someone that doesn't have prior connections doesn't make sense to me.. Her husband was president. Why does she have to be?
Its just bragging rights to be the first female president. I'm telling you the American people comes second to her! I rather vote for other women like Nancy Pelosi.
Now she is like Mitt and giving her own money to her campaign. She has all this money, you can't tell me she is not connected to corporate America and the lobbyist.
Obama 2008! Hillary is a politician. If she is so disliked in NYC why did she win? Where are you guys at, come out and vote.. This is going to be tuff for Barack, they ask him stupid questions like was Bill the first Black president? WHAT ??? Hillary has her own personal reasons for running and old America- women especially are use to her. I doubt Democrats stand a chance if she is the nominee. ALL of the above... Age 40 - male - midwest
Hmmm... 'why do i dislike hillary?'... oh let me count the ways... try infinity and beyond 26, Southwest Missouri
1.) Hillary doesn't have as great a chance in a general election. High negatives might be overlooked in large democratic areas on the coast, but look to independent and conservative middle America and you'll see a population that made up their mind about her over a decade ago. Obama really does have cross-over power that she could never have. My largely conservative extended family here in Missouri all voted unanimously for Obama. For my father, it was the first democrat he'd voted for since Lyndon Johnson, calling me after to express how proud he felt.
2.) Dirty politics. South Carolina was a big deal, and it reinforced in the minds of those with negative impressions of her that she really has little regard for the dignity of the process. Bill Clinton referring to Obama as "boy" and "kid" - these words have a history in America when applied to a middle aged black man. The campaign saying Obama was "shucking and jiving" on the campaign trail. Bill's claim that Obama's campaign had "put a hit on him." The response to Obama's South Carolina win being "Oh well, Jesse Jackson won South Carolina too," implying that Obama doesn't have a chance because he's just another "black" candidate. Either Bill had been pushing this on his own and she can't control him, or this is a coordinated effort by them both for him to drive the wedges between people on the basis of race and let her reap the benefits without getting her hands dirty. This tactic isn't new for the Clintons... she actually built her huge negatives by being Bill's lightning rod so long ago.
I recall interviews with Republicans during Hillary's first stab at health care reform, how behind closed doors they were each threatened to give support or she would "destroy them".
A leader does not unite a country by driving wedges into racial divides. A leader does not unite a country by demonizing her opponents.
3.) The authorization to invade Iraq.
I am a military veteran with some background in intelligence, deployed in the middle east theatre for multiple operations concerning Iraq before 9/11, in the area throughout our operations in Afghanistan, and leading into the war in Iraq. Many of us read reports from throughout the middle east, Iraq included, every day, all day, and frankly when Cheney came out and declared Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, we ourselves were rather shocked that this was the first we had heard of it ourselves. "What in the hell is he talking about?" we asked each other.
We all know now that the intelligence they cited was over 4 years old by the time we attacked Iraq, and so the administration just believed what it wanted to. Members of congress were their enablers, Hillary Clinton among them.
Its not enough to be critical of how Bush has run this war. She was part of the hubris that led us into this needless war. Obama is the only choice left for those who really make a stand against needless foreign wars. I personally don't think there is a more important decision that our generation has to make. Even if we respect Hillary as a woman and Senator, I think we feel alienated by how she's attacked Barack's record and lied. We are done with the slash and burn politics of yesterday, and we like his politics of hope. She called him the "establishment" candidate, which is clearly a Republican-type bait and switch tactic. She did not read the intelligence documents before authorizing Bush to go to war, yet she claims her 35 years of experience will be better for America. Well, Nixon had lots of experience before getting elected, too. She's a good at debating, but that doesn't matter if we can't trust her. I heartily recommend some thoughtful articles on the subject of their leadership differences. Interestingly, they are both titled "The Choice".

I don't like Hillary because she's just another politician, and not even a great one. She'll say anything or do anything (moving to NY) to get elected. Once shes in office she won't do anything extraordinary for anyone, in fact I'd say her administration would be very ordinary. Not to mention the 2 calculated crying fits I've seen, and how despite the gentlesman's agreement to stay out of michigan and florida she broke the rules and campaigned there anyway. I'm so sick of how politics have been run in the past..my ideal president is George Washington, following in his footsteps I have registered independent. Honestly, Barack Obama is a completely new type of politician. It's not a job to him, it's a service to the people. I believe that when he's elected he will always do what's best for the people. Hillary Clinton just can not do that, and she will never have my support. Young people are voting for Obama because he is a "pretty face" and they like his shiny white teeth. He has nothing to back up what he says in experience. He is getting by on his looks and youth alone. And the media is trying to sell him off as the latest media darling or messiah. I don't buy it.
Younger Obama fans dislike Hillary and Bill because to crap on Hillary and Bill means to crap on their parents in absentia....and Lord knows how young people like to be obstinate and tick off their folks and how they think they know it all at such a young age....and that their parents don't know anything...even now, when anyone criticizes Obama, they are called a "racist", but if anyone criticizes Hillary are they called a "misogynist"? Are people who criticize McCain for his age accused of "age discrimination"? NO. Those are your reasons for opposing her?Are you sure your not 12? How is her personal life even relevant?
Do you really want a candidate (Obama) that has missed 70% of Senate votes? & voted for a bill that made it nearly impossible for ordinary people to sue giant corporations who rob & defraud? that voted for President Bush's energy bill, sending more than $13 billion in subsidies and tax breaks to oil, coal, and nuclear companies. He voted to allow credit card companies to raise interest rates over 30 percent? that voted in favor of reauthorizing the Patriot Act? that he cannot commit to have all troops out of Iraq by 2013? that supported Bush's sanctions against Iran and co-sponsored a bill designating the Iranian National Guard a terrorists organization, that would like to invade Pakistan? |
