In reply to the discussion: Hillary to #blackLivesMatter: "If that is your position then I will talk only to white people" [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)7. That's how Hillary reacts when she is frustrated and angry.
She does not like being challenged. She can't let go and listen and respond from a quiet place. She get very defensive.
That is why I don't think she can win the presidency or make a good president.
It's a question of personality, of spiritual state, and Hillary just doesn't get it.
Bernie understood how to listen and take action.
We shall see what happens, but this is what caused Hillary to fail in the 2008 primary.
She doesn't have a problem-solving, "I'll include you in solving this problem" approach. She sees life as confrontation and succeeding. She just doesn't see it as a group effort to improve the lives of everyone.

Some either refuse to learn or are incapable of learning or are purposely riding a one trick pony.

Everything you imply is refuted by Clinton's 4 years as SOS, not to mention her entire lifetime.

As opposed to BS when he doesn't like being challenged: "Bernie Sanders leaves Westlake Rally ".

Nope. This is a totally fair edit. If Bernie had said this his campaign would be over.

Hillary's comment there was racist. I bet a comment like that would get someone banned from DU.

I'm not so sure that "DU isn't stupid as repugs who believe, or claim to believe". 7 recs so far.

The whole OP is a deception, but is recommended by now 8 others? Not as bad as some deception OP's!
