Who knows, maybe if you had a chance to chat with her over a nice meal of spicy food, you could find some common ground (besides the food). Or if nothing else, she has some interesting stories. Like, when she was starting out she worked as a civil rights activist in Alabama proving that “segregation academies” were discriminating against Black applicants in violation of the law. They openly assured her that they would not let Black students in. More broadly, this proved that the Nixon administration was not enforcing the law.
Health care, I’m sure she has plenty to say that is far more nuanced than the sound bites that get posted to social media. Social mobility, educational opportunity, racial justice, the justice system, foreign policy. I would love to hear her thoughts, even if I don’t agree with everything.
It really says a lot that all you did was mention a progressive thing she did and this seems to have upset several people who still want to cling to their GOP implanted delusion that she is the neoliberal devil.

Dude, dinner and a frank conversation with Hillary Clinton would be one of the highlights of my life. She has seen some shit.

I’m just migrating from lemmy.ml. A couple of downvotes is a nice upgrade from the atmosphere over there.
