I don't think Obama supporters understand how it could be offensive to call us 'low information voters' for example. I think they accept it as fact or maybe think all of the Hillary supporters on this site are only voting for her because we're women.
Obama supporters need to re-think certain 'truisms' that have become accepted as 'fact' by some of them. That you can be a Hillary supporter and not be a racist, for example. That some of us are just as inspired by Hillary as they are by Obama.
I'll admit I have been there too - talking about the 'cult', etc. But I have really tried to stay away from that recently. For those Obama supporters who do go to the anti-Hillary side, it is just as effective for me, anyway, to hear an Obama supporter tell them that they are wrong.
You make a fair point. I mean that.
Some of your compatriots say the same sorts of things about African Americans, though.
There's blood on all of our hands.
I haven't seen anybody say anything offensive about African Americans here. If I saw it, thogh, I would certainly be the first to denounce it.
I think when you are faced with two great candidates, it is understandable to lean toward the one that you have some sort of cultural tie to. It would only be disturbing if people were clearly picking an unqualified candidate strictly for reasons of racial/gender identity. I honestly don't think you can argue that is happening in this case.
