HC: People say, ‘I really like you, I just don’t know if I can vote for a women'

[Ogre Mage]

Why is it so unbelievable that people would say this?  Some celebrities are willing to straight up say to the media that they won't vote for a female nominee:

In a March 2016 CNN poll when asked if the country was ready for a female president, 19% of respondents said no.  This question is often a more effective way of getting a sense of the level of opposition to electing a female president than bluntly asking "would you vote for a qualified female presidential candidate?"

The current numbers of 80% ready/19% not ready are considerably better than in 2008.  At that time, only 67% felt the country was ready and 32% thought it was not ready for a female president.

1 in 5 voters thinking the country won't elect a woman is a minority viewpoint, but it certainly isn't super rare.  It's easy to believe Clinton has encountered some of these voters.

I don't see TI at any Clinton rallies, and he didn't say it to her face.  Saying stuff to people's face takes an amount of balls that is in most situations beyond human instinct.

So the poster boy for red avatar "anti-feminism" is a felon rapper who is possibly ineligible to vote due to his felony weapons conviction and subsequent parole (assuming he is still on parole) that recently held a concert in NYC that was disrupted by gunfire from a rival rapper.

Brilliant.

Well, it is not hard to find No Country for Female Presidents behavior from Republicans.  Cue that Minnesota Maniac, Michele Bachmann:

I suppose we shouldn't expect logic or consistency from someone who thinks the HPV vaccine causes mental retardation, but why did she run if the country isn't ready for a female president?  Is Bachmann just bitter about the failure of her own campaign?  She should just tell herself it's all part of God's Plan and go back to waiting for The Rapture.
