Re: The Obama Support Club Snrub wrote: Beeblebrox wrote: loyalfromlondon wrote: I'm with Hillary because at the end of the day, she's far more seasoned and having a woman in office is still more progressive than having another man (albeit black). I think that would depend on who is more under-represented, women or black men? In the presidency, it's a wash since neither a woman or black man have ever even been a nominee before. There are currently 29 black men serving in both houses of Congress. There are 90 women (incidentally, the overwhelming number of each are Democrats). There are 535 total Congress critters. So that breaks down to 17% for women, and 5% for black men. So even though I don't agree with that particular criteria, I'd have to say that, based on the progressive argument, it would be more progressive to vote for a woman than a black man. !?! How? Because 50% of population are women, while 12.4% are African-Americans (so about 6% of the population are black men). Women are a lot more underrepresented in the congress using this measure. _________________Recent watched movies: American Hustle - B+ Inside Llewyn Davis - B Before Midnight - A 12 Years a Slave - A- The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - A- My thoughts on box office

Re: The Obama Support Club Libs wrote: I think I've decided to vote Obama on Tuesday. Yay. Welcome to the club. Month ago, I was upset at my state for holding its primary in April. "It'll be decided long before then" I said. Now it looks like we folks in PA may be the ones who can give the final blow to Hillary (I hope!)... Too bad the governor and most of the elected officials in PA are already Hillary supporters.  _________________Buy my books! http://michaelaventrella.com
