Electoral history tends to repeat itself — even if the iterations vary slightly.
In 2008 — and again in 2012 — the Democrats played up the notion that if you did not support Barack Obama for president, it was because you were a racist. It couldn’t possibly be because you disagreed with the man’s policies. It couldn’t possibly be because you had never voted for a Democrat in your life. It couldn’t possibly be because you felt a junior senator was unprepared for the most powerful office in the world. No, if you did not vote for Barack Obama, it was because you were a racist bigot.
With only white candidates running in either of the major parties in 2016, the race card is off the table — but the gender card certainly is not, and Hillary Clinton is playing it every chance she gets. To read about Clinton’s dubious claim that supporters and admirers approach her at rallies to tell her that if only she were a man, they would gladly vote for her, continue reading on the next page:

No it’s because she’s a crook.
Puh-lease! That’s the only reason so many are voting for her!
People should not vote for you because you are the worst liar ever!!
nope, I will never vote for this cesspool of corruption and criminality. p**s on killery.
They won’t vote for you because you’re the most crooked corrupt politician to ever run for office. #NEVERHILLARY #GOTTAGOTRUMP
You mean to say a lying corrupt woman.
I won’t vote for her because she’s not black? ha ha hah
B.S. we don’t have problem voting for a woman. But, we do have a problem voting for a criminal.
Hillary, I too am a 72 yr old woman but will NOT vote for you because you are a serial liar, corrupt to the bone, a greedy, self-centered, narcissistic, foul-mouthed, morally bankrupt, and totally untrustworthy person! You and your sleezy, sex-crazed husband have been involved in one horrible scandal after another since the 1970s! You are the very worst and most disgusting example of what it means to be a woman! You Hillary, are an embarrassment to all other women, and if you’re the best candidate that the Democrat party can come up with, then they are in serious trouble now and in the future! I would gladly vote for a decent, moral and trustworthy woman, but that is NOT YOU!!
that is NOT the reason
