What is your opinion on Hillary Clinton?
-
I got curious about what all the fuss was about with the Benghazi hearing and ended up watching it, and it pretty much cemented in my mind that she's just a nasty individual. Especially when she was asked about why she was ignoring the ambassador's emails about wanting more security, and she laughed and talked about how the ambassador was such a joker and she could imagine him just smiling away as he wrote messages to her. That just seemed ghoulish.
She's always come across as someone that was dead set on playing politics to an extreme degree and capitalizing on her husband's career, but seeing how she's been campaigning and her comments regarding Benghazi just make her seem completely nuts.

Hillary Clinton is a politician. She is no worse than most politicians & she is a better choice in the field of candidates we have so far.
-
I don't trust her as far as I could throw her. She will say whatever she thinks the majority want to hear and not what she actually believes.
-
I would vote for Bernie seeing that his campaign is funded by supporters and not huge conglomerates like Hillary is. Those companies will always have a bigger voice than the American people and she is pro-establishment. But would prefer her over any republican, even though she'd mostly be the same as Obama.
-
she will do and say anything to become president. Power hungry and corrupt to the core. Never will vote for her.
-
She is too close to Wall Street and her husband's business deals around the world are a liability and a conflict of interest. I am voting for Bernie Sanders. If he doesn't win, I will hold my nose and vote for Clinton but I expect we will see a repeat of the scandals of the 1990s.

**Democrats are run by & supported by Wall Street (reason Obama put none in Jail)
Republicans are run by & supported by corporationsWhich is the less of two evil. No one can run for office unless you have major backers with money to support your campaign. The system is rigged, so people with money will always have the power. It seems like there is no one out there for the Middle Class (if there is one now) or people that is not part of the 1%.
We really needs people to do there own research on politicians that they elect, You can not trust the media and you can not trust what the politicians say either. You need to look into what they have done up to this point and try to find someone that is the closest to what you want out of your elected officers.**

I don't like the woman. She's essentially what would have been called a Republican in the 80s - the only reason we can't see that is that the American Right has moved SO far right that even the moderate right looks like the left. I like Bernie, I would vote for him, but I don't think that he will ever get the nomination and because of that, I, like someone else said, will hold my nose and vote for Clinton, because if you look at the right in terms of what they're trying to do to reproductive rights and civil rights, there is just no comparison.

As to Hillary, she beats out every Republican in the field. Which is saying something horrible about Republicans. Bernie is my pick and I actually do think he has a chance (I once thought some unknown black politician from Chicago had a chance too. Well.). So I'm going with Bernie and it really is because Elizabeth Warren refused to run. She was my first pick.

Exactly, sadly having Clinton as a front-runner says nothing about the Democratic party and everything about the Republicans. Hell, I'm jaded enough to think the insanity of the Republican Party is just a conspiracy to make us accept that Hillary's views are actually progressive.
