    @ Xrandadu Hutman

    So your support for Hillary is based on her being a FEMINIST, but not on her being a WOMAN? Then if Obama is a feminist, you'll support him? Because I have some exciting and revelatory news for you.....OBAMA IS A FEMINIST.

    Let me be specific. Clinton is my kind of feminist. If you want to claim Obama is a feminist, please give me statement made by Obama that established that he is a feminist. Now a libertarian ifeminist or a so called equity feminist but a second wave type a feminist.

    I know damed well that your libertarian-leaning "feminism" is not my sort of feminism, Hutman. To me, those feminists are anti-feminists.

    Also, if Obama is a feminist, why did he make those sexist comments about "claws" and Clinton getting "down?" Not just many of Obama's supporters, but Obama himself, are suspect as sexists.
