Hillary Clinton for President: The Philadelphia Magazine Endorsement

The way we see it, there are only two choices in the November election. So we printed a cover for both.



The article takes a lot of potshots at Clinton, which I don't admire or like on its part. But it comes to the correct conclusion.

In Trump, we’ve got a xenophobic, impulsive, sexist, racist, unqualified con man with a soft spot for fascism. At best, his election would give future historians a definitive consensus moment to cite as the beginning of the end of the great American Republic (Napoleon in Russia; the Visigoths sack Rome). At worst, a President Trump might just kill us all by jamming that red button with his very small fingers after Vladimir Putin hurts his feelings on Twitter.

And in Clinton? We’ve got a candidate that some of us just don’t like very much.

Yeah, exactly. There’s only one choice in this election, and that’s Hillary Clinton for president.

This is the first time the editors of Philadelphia magazine have endorsed a presidential candidate. We’ve weighed in before on mayors, but the White House is out of our coverage area. Not this time, though. Not with the Democratic National Convention coming to town, and not with Donald Trump on the ballot.

1. Not a bad endorsement at all. nt

2. Perhaps I am hyper-sensitive to

the point, but I really get tired of the MSM memes that Clinton is an "unpopular" candidate, etc. - when she so clearly beat ALL the boys and is head and shoulders above the lot of them put together in qualifications for the job!

But yes, I did like the fact that their first endorsement EVER for a Presidential candidate is for HRC!

3. And perhaps I am desensitized.

I think the fact that they did not go into any detail about her scandals is a positive. Either they didn't feel all that strong about them or they acknowledge they are bogus by doing it.

4. I need to develop a thicker skin

perhaps.

5. I'll take it.

BTW that is a great picture of Hillary.

Thanks, Blue.

10. Great endorsement! The "unpopular" narrative from the media

does wear thin, but I do think we are gradually seeing it start to fade as she builds on her obvious successes.

Nice photo, Madame President!

Well, I live in the outskirts.
