The Clinton Logic

Jill Tubman sees it:

If she wins the nomination, I would absolutely vote for her over whichever fascist fumbling jackass the Republicans select in their primaries. I might vote for her without much enthusiasm, but I would certainly choose her. And that's what the Clintons are banking on.

Yep: that's how they screw over gay people and still get their money, votes and fawning admiration. But I tend to side with many of the commenters on the site, the kind who write:

Voting for Hillary would just embolden this kind of campaigning in the future. If blacks vote for her in our regular numbers, this thing continues for all eternity and there won't ever be a black president, period. Or a latino president or an Asian president, etc. You don't have to vote for Hillary or Republican. Claiming that is the only option is simply a lie and you know that. You can write in a candidate. You can vote Green. You can vote Independent, Libertarian, etc. It's not either/or.
