Hillary 2016! I would never support Gov. Cuomo. This man has such an ego! He has the audacity to receive holy communion while publicly and privately promoting an anti Catholic agenda! What a fraud. I regret ever voting for this man. He is an affront to all Catholics.
I supported Hillary in 08 and would do so again!!

It's probably synchronous that a woman president should break through the presidential glass ceiling after a black man was elected to the White House. Why square the racial equality circle without following through with gender. After Rt Hon Sen Rodham-Clinton ascends to even higher office, might a certain African-American woman be then in waiting, scoring a double egalitarian whammy. Since Ireland has already had two (of 7) female presidents of our arrestedly developed nation, electing a President Clinton II would be auspicious in the centenary of the Easter Rising, to force the pace of reunification. (PS Phlutiephan! The conspicious anti-reptilianism of the Roman citizen from Briton (ie Wales) symbnolised sexually reression. In light of clerical child sexual abuse, do we suppose it was a good idea?)

I forgot to mention what a great President Hillary will make and how what a smooth seamless transition that will take place after the 2016 election. Who do the Republicans have, ha ha. Old white men or teabaggers.

Along with her husband Bill and President Obama, Hillary Clinton ranks in the top three of most popular Americans from an Irish perspective. And why not, she has (like her husband and President Obama)made Ireland a top priority. The Irish people love the Clintons and Obama. Speaking of which, the President will also be visiting Ireland, North and South, later in the Spring. The haters and pretenders who make anti-Hillary or anti-Obama statements are clueless about Ireland (Northern and the Republic).

Of course the right wing bigots who continue to vent here will never get over the simple fact that a majority of the voters in the last election CLOBBERED their out-of-touch tuchases, but the greater question, which will be even HARDER for them to swallow is the wealth of potential candidates the Democrats have to field in the 2016 election and our utterly empty field of qualified hopefuls since the moderates who *could* win have largely been purged from higher office. Hillary could have made a great president, but Barak has made a greater one, and I suspect she will come to believe that her legacy as one of the best Secretaries of State since George Marshall is such that she doesn't NEED to run for President. It will be a measure of how scared the right is of one of the potentially BEST candidates for president (on actual experience and accomplishments) is how much they step up the vilification of Vice President Joe Biden. The most effective tool we ever had against Ronald Reagan was keeping him marginalized as a wing-nut movie actor. When people started taking him SERIOUSLY, he was hard to stop just on image alone. Take the Vice President seriously and there are few people in the country with both the inherent charm and practical SKILLS and EXPERIENCE to be President.

PhlutiePhan The snake is the divine feminine consciousness- so denying that is so typically patriarchal- hatred of Creator wombmen. This is what has placed Eire on the map when the Savita died under their watch

PhlutiePhan. There were no snakes in Eire. Patrick the Patriarch was a his story of how men from Roma came here to tame us spiritual beings.
The snakes are mere energy- used in medicine logos etc.
All the untruth re Eve and the snake has left us with thousands of years of demonising women on Mother Earth.
Hilary has a lot to offer.

TThis Women proclaims she is Irish by usurping the Name Clinton. WJ Clinton is properly known as Blythe. Clinton was a a Noble British Seaman from Northern Ireland before what is known as The USA today. Please Hilliary... say the Hell away from us In Ireland... We do not want Snakes.

The scatter-shot rhetoric of the Tea Party is as idiotic as the poster below who made it. Hilary as 'world dictator'? What does that even mean? Or attempting to claim that Huma Abedin is a bomb throwing Taliban member? It's too stupid for words. It's why they keep losing too - because of unbelievable Grand Torino get off my lawn guys like PhlutiePan talking to empty chairs.
