RIght now we don't need a woman who is a neo-con chicken-hawk. After Bernie's 8 we will need a woman who is a progressive

I always thought she was just a drum beater for left angst. She always blew things out of proportion, and I always had to tone down what she said to reality. I figured she sold out this election, but it could be the opposite, she wants a female so bad she is basically another DNC Ahab.

I cannot see an intelligent person wanting a woman more than using her brain. I guess salary and future stature have clouded her vision.

I can see that $140,000 a week can only be the stepping stone to that.

and those of us who support her actually know what they are. She is vastly more qualified than anyone else running. Bernie Sanders is a weird cranky gadfly whose by far largest achievement in life was getting elected to Congress and the Senate, which are quite frankly way ahead of any of his other qualifications. Good for him but, he knows nothing of what is necessary to run the government and has demonstrated that many times during debates.

The fact that you chalk up Dr. Maddow's preference to Hillary Clinton being a woman is sexist and stupid. Hillary Clinton is smarter, harder working and far more qualified than Bernie Sanders in the opinion of virtually everyone who isn't sniffing Bernie's ass full time.
