So the whole point of Democrats, liberals, progressives, and the DNC was that I am supposed to vote for Mrs. Clinton because she is a woman. It was either blatantly or subtly stated, but out there the entire time. And if I did not vote for her, I was sexist. However Angela Merkel may not be safe this year. It ought to be interesting to see what happens in 2.5 months with the German elections.
I have no problem voting for a black person (male or female.) I have no problem voting for a woman (black, white, asian, or purple with pink polka dots.) I have a problem voting for someone that does not stand for what I think is right or that I disagree with. Hence I did not vote for President Trump either.
That being said, Angela Merkel is a powerful force in Europe. She is pushing Germany to the top in power, politically and financially, and pushing the EU pretty hard – because the EU is showing signs of shattering.
