Gallup: Hillary Clinton is most admired woman in the world; President Obama is most admired man

Hillary Clinton takes the top spot on a list of admired living women for the 13th year in a row, according to an annual survey released by Gallup on Monday....

When asked to name a woman they've heard or read about and admire, 12% mentioned Clinton, the former secretary of state, New York senator and first lady....

In the seven decades that Gallup has been asking the question, Clinton has won the designation more than any other woman, including six times more than former first lady Eleanor Roosevelt....

... this is another reason why - as I was reminded again tonight on DU - if Hillary had any integrity, she would drop out of the race, because she is hated and reviled by everyone.

She needs to equalize the playing field by kicking a dog or eating a boiled baby or something equally detestable. She needs a handicap.

Sarcasm smiley for the sarcasm impaired.

Bernie Sanders: Let’s primary Obama

snip//

"President Obama is under attack these days from all manner of nasty conservatives who don’t care for his liberal, big spending ways. They seem to have found an unlikely ally, though, in the person of the only officially declared socialist in Congress… Bernie Sanders."

snip//

"So I would say to Ryan [sic] discouragement is not an option. I think it would be a good idea if President Obama faced some primary opposition."

http://hotair.com/archives/2011/07/24/bernie-sanders-lets-primary-obama/

Sanders really had his finger on the pulse of the Nation.. so endearing to the Black Community and people like me.

And, now he's running against President Obama's legacy.. good luck with that Bernie..

Obama, Dean, McCarthy: What Presidential Candidate Does Bernie Sanders Most Resemble?

snip//

".. First, Sanders is running as much against Obama’s legacy as against anything pertaining specifically to Hillary Clinton. Second, all the revisionist history in the world won’t erase the fact that Obama, despite his strong appeal to liberal activists angry at HRC’s vote for the Iraq War, had a trans-ideological and even bipartisan appeal that Sanders is too consistently credentialed to rival."
