All the money in the world could never buy Melania what Michelle has - class, real class.

Bill's doing a pretty good job too (so far)
Nice little personal perspective but highlighting some of her early activities and achievements.

Yes, I had to switch that off - started to feel quite queasy. :
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - Mav - 07-27-2016
Bill could talk under water for hours! ;D
It's a necessary and effective effort to humanise Hillary. Just the very fact that she chose to work as a children's advocate rather than taking a high-paid corporate law job is enough to negate the image the GOP tries to paint of a self-serving power-craving politician without guiding principles.
Interesting how the conservatives choose to attack her for seeking high office, trying to turn years of public service into soulless ambition. When have men been attacked in this way? On the contrary, ruthless campaigning and manoeuvring is actually presented as strength and manliness. Peter Costello is mocked because he didn't have the guts to seize power from Howard after the latter walked away from a succession deal. On the other hand, Keating is admired for taking down Hawke when he tried to hold on to power. In Australia, we have had 3 sitting Prime Ministers overthrown by Gillard, Rudd and then Turnbull. Is it coincidental that only Gillard seems to have been condemned for doing so? Howard and Peacock spent a decade in opposition knifing each other. Fact is, Trump's the one who seems to be chasing power for narcissistic reasons. He has no actual policies other than the ridiculous wall he says he'll build.

Are you really going down the poor Hilary route?

Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - Mav - 07-27-2016
I don't peddle the 'Poor Woman' trope. She's plenty tough, as was Gillard. But there's a clear difference in how ambition and career-building is viewed where women are concerned. The Age ran a story yesterday that women don't get promotions because they don't ask for them. But asking for them makes them ball-breaking bitches. A bit of a catch-22 ...

Mav, don't you know it's a level playing field ?
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - madbluboy - 07-27-2016
Ask Bernie Sanders how level it was.
