but I fear if I post a link to her I would get pilloried. This article could have been written by her, if it were and it was posted here, it would certainly get negative hits. Yes, I'm talking about Tulsi Gabbard. She is not a perfect candidate but do we really have a perfect candidate?

Tulsi has been beaten to a pulp here even though her sentiments are similar to the author of this thread. To me it's a shame that Tulsi has been blackballed from running for president, she fits my only criteria for beating Trump, she is tough as nails. I doubt that many here saw her sincere apology for her former stance against the LGBTQ community, she is persona non gratta, one of the first to be eaten by our own.
