Has anyone notice how Isis kills anyone not towing their for  of Islam,well Hillary and Obama are responsible for this,proven fact. I can't support Hillery because she takes  money from countries that's hate the transgender,she gives lip service saying she supports us but her wallet and values speak differently. I been trying to shy away from discussions lately because I'm not p.c. but a country girl who speaks her mind.
No, I haven't noticed this. I prefer to listen to evidence instead of accusations.

Cheryl, I've noted this before. The Clinton FOUNDATION took money from the Saudis. That is not her campaign and she's stepped away from the foundation, it's Bill's entity.

Hell, the Koch brothers built an entire building at MIT. While I hate that they have any presence on the campus, organizations don't turn away money so long as it doesn't have strings attached and some really important work on cancer happens there. Bill Gates also has a building with his name on it and let's say I'm not a fan of the man (I've met him) a lot of good work happens there.

If you want a politician who really is tied hook line and sinker to the Saudis you have George H W Bush who maintained his close ties to them while he was president.

Domestically, it couldn't be more evident which party is on the side of LGBT rights and which is on the side that views LGBT individuals as an anathema. However, we shouldn't blithely dismiss critiques on the effects Barack Obama's foreign policy has had on individuals in the Middle East (of which LGBT individuals are particularly susceptible) and that while there is no evidence of Hillary Clinton engaging in quid pro quo through the Clinton Foundation, that it isn't a stretch to think that some of the donations her foundation has received would cause her to be more likely to support ties that most would wish weren't necessary to maintain.

I think we can make a strong argument, though, that given that in our current environment, the American public will not support long term nation building projects, that the foreign policy goals of Obama and Clinton might require some callous calculations, but they're generally pragmatic, thoughtful and nuanced.

Conservatives feel threatened, which is increasing their human propensity towards tribalism and causing them to hold many crazed ideas. Clinton needs to direct more attention towards offering baby boomers, whose way of life has mostly changed from technological and societal advancements, a vision that allows them to feel like they are reclaiming their dignity, without causing immense damage to the welfare of society.

Many of us have enough difficulty in our transition and we don't need the aggravation of a political argument to add to it.
