If you simply "cant" vote for Clinton, you simply ARE helping the worst

human beings on the earth take over and do real bad damage to everything not just in this country but likely just EVERYTHING.


Period.

Dont argue with me, admit this is correct and that you are willing to allow that harm to come to pass because YOU didnt get what YOU wanted.

Just admit it.

Surviving on the planet long term. 4 more years is entirely too late. It might be already. Hillary is going to do what her corporate oil donors want her to do and protecting the planet isn't among those things.

Yeah can't vote for Clinton and can't vote for trump. I do care for the potential democratic nominee, but I ain't gonna care what the Republicans vote for as candidate. I'll admit it. But it doesn't come from a "whiny" perspective as they say. Clinton is doing fine in the polls. She can hold her own against trump with her democrats.

While its arguably too late anyway, only Bernie and Jill Stein have aggressive environmental proposals.

In 10 years it won't matter who's appointed the ambassador to the UN if the entire state of Oklahoma has no drinking water because its been poisoned by fracking.

Well, keep shaming all you want because this FDR Democrat who remembers JFK and has been a lifelong big and little D/d Democrat will never vote for the DINO $hillary who has consistently demonstrated awful judgment, who always gets things wrong the first time and who back pedals (LIES) when challenged on the primary trail or otherwise called to answer for her many errors:

NAFTA (the 2 for 1, so what's Bill's is hers, too)
Telecommunications (ditto)
Welfare Reform (ditto)
Glass-Steagall reversal (ditto)
IWR
Bankruptcy bill
Patriot Acts 1&2
Honduras
Libya
Syria
Fracking
Monsanto
TPP

total environmental collapse, etc. I'm very strongly against all of those things as they threaten the existence of everything on earth. Hillary is very much FOR those things. If she were also for exterminating LGBT people, would you vote for her? Maybe you are a single issue voter, I really don't know, but since she's on the wrong side of every issue I most care about, she'll never have my support. If the Democratic party wants the support of left of center and centrist voters, it shouldn't be shoving a neocon down our throats via election fraud and a media blackout.

Besides, HILLARY DOES NOT NEED OUR VOTES. If Arizona proves anything, it's that she (and her corporate/ big money masters) have got this thing so well rigged that they can swing it any way they like, and the media will give them cover. It's just a matter of "long lines" and the SCOTUS? Please!!

You might be fooled by Hillary's good friend and personal boogyman Trump, but not everyone is falling for it. The whole thing would be laughable if the results weren't so tragic.

And Mike Dukakis also lost about 10 percent of the Democratic vote. So did Al Gore and John Kerry.

I also remember reading that McCain got a higher percentage of Edwards voters than he did Clinton voters.

Trustworthiness and honesty. Against a man of integrity and honor, well guess what? You lose the right to complain about the fact that I will NOT vote for a profracking, pro H1b visa and outsourcing, corporatist warhawk. If the rest of the country finds your chosen candidate as abhorrant as I do, the electionresult is NOT on US, but on YOU for pushing such a fatally flawed candidate in the first place.

How many more kittens will die?

How many more angels lose their wings?

How many more times will some Hillary follower will post this sort of crap just to piss people off even more? You guys don't even realize that each time you post this stuff, you further cement people not voting for her if she's the nominee. You never give it a rest, and you put ridiculous end of days crap out there, and say that because of your principles we can't have nice things, because you won't sell out and vote for her, demons will walk the earth.

It's getting old and accomplishing nothing more than the opposite of what you think you're doing.

I live in CT. The DEM nominee is going to win with or without my vote. If Hillary wins the nomination, I hope she wins the presidency, but I don't want to vote for her. Hopefully I won't have to, and hopefully she still wins the presidency. I consider it a win-win. If polls show a close race in my state, I reserve the right to change my vote.
