Apparently because it's "open season" on Christians and white men in the USA, Hillary Clinton has an advantage in the 2016 election.<\/p>\n

I have to confess, as a white man who's a Christian, I haven't noticed myself under fire, literal or figurative — or, at least, no more than anyone else in the ideological free-fire zone that is the Internet. I haven't been disenfranchised, harassed into not voting, forced out of my job, or made to feel that my demography isn't well-represented in, oh, pretty much every branch and level of government.<\/p>\n

That said, it is, in fact, true, that Hillary Clinton is apparently not a man. On the other hand, she is pretty clearly white. She's also Christian (see http:\/\/www.religionnews.com\/2015\/04\/10\/5-faith-facts-hillary-clinton-social-gospel-methodist-core\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n

So does that mean she only has 1\/3 the advantage you think she does, Bill? And exactly what advantage is that? Have Christians lost their majority status in the US? Have whites lost theirs? Maybe you mean that women are 50.8% of the population, vs. 49.2% being men, so that 1% difference is likely to win her the presidency?<\/p>\n

What advantage are we talking about here?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
