      @@kathydurow6814 She wouldn't let things like that stop her. Obama and Biden's problem is they were centrist Dems trying to appeal to everyone. Obama was the best President we've ever had but wasn't smart enough to understand that trying to reason with an arsonist and meeting them halfway, leaves half your things in ruin. Had he had more backbone I'd have been prouder. Republicans were literally open about trying to tank the economy to make him look bad and he hardly ever spoke about it. She is the kind of progressive leader we need. She's just as smart as anyone to ever run and has the fortitude to get things done. If they try to stop her, she will embarrass them and put their idiocy on display.

      You can certainly be proud as a fellow Puerto Rican. However, her looks have ZERO relevance to her intelligence, professionalism and ability to represent her constituents effectively. Are you 15 years old?! When men can stop talking about woman's appearance like another quality at the same level as those first qualifications, then we will truly have earned your respect. When men mention "beauty" it reduces it all to an adolescent objectification. You might as well say, "Hubba Hubba!" and wink and raise one eyebrow. Please. She doesn't need you to think she's beautiful OR unattractive. That's not why we cast our ballots. Or, is it???
