Nothing Absolves Hillary Clinton of Her Weapons Sales

There is unverified talk of Bernie Sanders getting behind Hillary Clinton to help.  Doing so will undermine everything he has said and leave no move except with the Green Party and Jill Stein.  There was talk of the same regarding Elizabeth Warren and it's a short term move since the political suicide should be obvious given the enormous discontent in the country.  Warren has helped to foment quite a bit of it so walking away from it with Clinton will obviate everything she ever said as well.

We will not vote for bombers and arms merchants.  Hillary Clinton has been an active participant in both as Secretary of State and that behavior doesn't even qualify her as human much less an acceptable candidate for President.  We need reason and not simply more state-sponsored killing.  It hasn't accomplished anything anywhere and it never will.

Update: looked at multiple news services and saw nothing to confirm Bernie Sanders endorsing or working for Hillary Clinton in any way.  There was only an endorsement by Obama for Clinton which isn't a surprise after she was pushing weapons in the Middle East while Secretary of State during his administration.


Black people are the most recent to get pissed off with me based on the premise Trump is more racist than Clinton.

Perhaps that's true but I do know Trump has never been a party to sending black kids into combat from which some of them did not return.  Clinton did.

Support Clinton on the basis of being less racist is not true and does not sway the position here.  There is no lesser evil in people who profit from the People rather offering real service.


Many self-proclaimed feminists are also pissed off because 'I do not support Clinton making history.'

She's not making history since the first female Presidential nominee was said to be over one hundred and forty years ago.  That one is unconfirmed but, more recently, Jill Stein was confirmed long before Clinton and the latter isn't confirmed yet anyway.


No current mainstream candidate is acceptable and this is one more reason:


Ref:  VA - Suicide Data Report, 2012


They make big talk of doing something about the problems with the Veterans Administration and Hillary Clinton had eight years to speak during her first tenure in the White House and four more as Secretary of State with Obama.  She said nothing and did nothing.  Meanwhile another veteran suicides just about once an hour.


There will be no negotiation with those who stood by and watched this happen while at the same time sending more kids to get killed overseas.

No more.
