An editorial opinion

A number of newspapers like The Dallas Morning News, The Arizona Republic, and The Cincinnati Enquirer have endorsed Hillary Clinton, although they either had never endorsed a Democrat or had not endorsed one for years.  The USA Today had never endorsed any candidate for president until this year, when it endorsed Clinton.

Last week an article in the New York Times, which itself endorsed Clinton, was entitled “Editorial Writers Have Spoken, but Will the Voters Listen?”  The article noted that editorials don’t seem to influence many people.

Nonetheless, it is time for this blog to take a stand.  I hereby endorse Hillary Clinton for President.  I am doing this in part because she has a long record of fighting for the right causes, beginning when she was in college.  Because she sucked it up after Obama won the nomination in 2008 and loyally supported him.  Because the misogynists can’t stand the idea of her winning the presidency.  Because the issues that people hold against her are, in the face of global warming, income disparities, and international problems, minor stuff like email servers.  She is smart, able, and will probably do better than President Obama at dealing with Republicans in Congress.  She deserves our vote.


How many people will this endorsement affect?  I thinking it may tip the election.
