@glitterbag,
I think all this Clinton stuff misses the topic. Here is my take of this entire thread for what it is worth.
- Is it fair to discuss server gate and Benghazi and the TPP? Sure, all of those are legitimate grounds for discussion. Those might be attacks on Clinton, but they are above board attacks even if they are politically based.
- Do Clinton supporters claim that those discussions are from gender bias? Not that I can see either in this thread or in the "When will Clinton give up" thread. I see plenty of cases where Clinton supporters claim some (or all) of these investigations are politically based or bogus, but that's not pulling the gender card. I don't see any backing for anti-Clinton claims that her supporters routinely trot out gender bias to fend off attacks.
- Does Clinton face a sub thread of gender bias that say Bill Clinton if he could run again would not? IMO, yes. It's not in the main press, but you don't find Bill Clinton nut crackers or hear from Trump how "shrill" his voice is.
- Are those gender biases going to overwhelm her campaign? I doubt it. Clinton has plenty of tools to overcome such attacks. Is Sanders more disadvantaged by his Socialist political affiliation? IMO yes. Back to the topic, I think the US would be fine with a woman for President.
- Does that make it ok for people like Trump (or minor politicians all over the country) to make such comments? No. Just because you don't like Clinton, it doesn't mean you need to support people who make misogynist comments.
