Yes, she would probably be good for women's rights in the US but we should ask the women in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria if she has improved their lives, many are already dead and their homes wrecked, widows, raising their children under very different circumstances than Chelsey's. We have a special responsibility to the rest of the world when we vote. I weighed the possible numbers of deaths here and there. And my "greatest good for the greatest number" says no vote for Hillary.
