Hillary II? History Repeats Itself
April 12, 2008 by daranee
Guess who these statements are about:
- [She] is quite a character. They may be no other woman in American history as ambitious and as effective at meeting her ambitions.
- Big payoffs from corporations for speeches
- It’s hard to separate [them] on this issue, since they have been married for 25 years, share the same political ambitions and of course share their money.
Surprise, it’s Elizabeth Dole.
I don’t think that Hillary suffers any more sexism than Barack Obama suffers racism as the Jeremiah Wright scandal proves, and I am highly disturbed that many of the racist elements are coming from the Hillary camp. Having said that, this web site from 1999 shows history repeats itself quite well with little variation.
For the bigots and sexists out there, I ask when will a black man be deserving of the highest office? When will ambition not be a bad word for women?
I’ve said before that despite being an Obama supporter, I will vote for whoever the Democratic nominee is. We need to stick together.
