Saw on CNN those voting for Hillary in MI said to a reporter they are voting because of BILL

[bkkyosemite]

That he was a President that gave them better economy (paraphrasing) and they know he will help out if she is President.

I think I stated something like this in another posted some hours ago and there you have it right on the news...must have been my telepathy...yea sure.

But they feel that he will guide her Presidency. I am not going for a third term of Bill.

And I believe that is why she had her server in her home so he could discuss with her issues of secrecy and be part of her decisions as SOS. I'm sick of the Royalty.

So is this in reality a campaign between Bill and Bernie!

1. Get used to hearing 'President Hillary Clinton.' nt

[Armymedic88]

3. Get used to hearing..

Breaking News: President Hillary Clinton orders another nation building war!!

[2pooped2pop]

9. Looks like she will be even more hated than bush

As its coming from both sides. Finally something to unite both sides. Sigh

[bkkyosemite]

6. I'm not getting used to anything.

[ThePhilosopher04]

11. She has zero chance of being President

[Lizzie Poppet]

14. Not after November 7th, you won't.

Since the matter won't by hypothetical any more...

[Dawgs]

20. LOL! More like President Trump.

NO WAY the most dishonest person and unlikable candidate wins against any of the Republicans.

2. The plural of anecdotes is not data.

4. Great response!

[Agnosticsherbet]

5. That is an great answer.

[BlueMTexpat]

7. That is as good a reason as

any, IMO.

I've seen and heard worse justifications given as rationales for voting, many here on DU.

We'll take those votes and add them to the HRC totals just the same.

[NaturalHigh]

8. I'm cool with that.

Things were pretty good under the first President Clinton.

[MineralMan]

10. I have no doubt whatsoever that some people will vote

for Hillary because they liked Bill Clinton as President. A lot of people liked his two terms in office. Now, I think they should look at Hillary for who she is, but it's hardly a surprise that people who liked Bill Clinton would choose to vote for Hillary.

People vote for all sorts of reasons. Some of those reasons make sense, and some do not. The cool thing about this country is that we get to vote as we choose, for whatever reason. We should celebrate that, I think.

12. Heard a Sanders supporter say he was voting for him

because he got to protest. And we all know how fun that is. I mean, gosh. As good a reason as any, right?

A girl said it was to get free tuition, like it was gonna start Spring semester 2017. Another great reason.

[Le Taz Hot]

13. Well, apparently Michiganders

love them some NAFTA.

[Lizzie Poppet]

15. But the "Billary" assertion is offensive and sexist, right?

It's so hard to keep track...

[kath]

16. People be stoopid.

[Lorien]

17. Talk about low information voters!

I guess they missed the dot.com bubble, NAFTA, Glass-Steagall (which brought us the last recession) and the telecommunications act of '96!

TALK to your friends and family people. Ignorance abounds out there!

[Dems to Win]

18. It's why I'll never believe she was elected 'in her own right' if she becomes prez

I heard similar comments in 2008...."she'll have our greatest ex-president right there to help her" or "I'm voting for Hillary as a way to get Bill back."

This is not how I, a lifelong feminist, want to see our first woman president get elected.

[fun n serious]

19. I love the BIG DAWG!!

[JaneyVee]

21. Manufacturing expanded under Bill and Michigan had...

A 3.4% unemployment rate at the end of his 2 terms.

[Attorney in Texas]

23. There is a reason why the first THREE female governors were former first ladies. There is terrible

sexism in America, and while the Progressive Democrats are far past this issue, there are still independents (whose support we need) who are more comfortable voting for someone who was held out by a past president as his "co-president."

I'm disappointed to hear Democrats expressing this view but I am not surprise to hear some people express the view and -- frankly -- looking at Hillary's unfavorability and untrustworthy polling, she cannot afford to turn away any supporters.
