I started out as a staunch Hillary supporter. I was excited that she was running, and I was ready for America to have a well qualified woman president. I liked the idea of universal health care – I felt it was a right of the people. I had never heard of Barak Obama, and when I did I didn’t care who he was.
I was empathetic to Hillary’s cause, and I thought she was shrewd to keep her cheating husband around, so she could leverage him for the nomination. I actually liked her sense of politics, but she left me behind. Here are the top 5 reasons why she lost her ground with me, and eventually lost the chance to be President.
1. She underestimated her opponent; this is the biggest mistake you can make about anyone. Your opponent or not; don’t judge someone by who they are, imagine who they could be.
2. She started to attack her opponent instead of telling people what she had to offer, beyond experience. The culture has changed it’s no longer about how many years you have in your resume, but about what you can accomplish despite your experience. 20something founders of multi-billion dollar corporations clearly illustrate this major change in our times, she failed to take notice.
3. She used the woman factor as a crutch instead of an asset, this turned off many who actively work hard every day to prove they are good at what they do, man or woman.
4. She used the historic factor to guilt us into votes. We should vote for her so she get’s into our history books. History is not made honey, it happens.
5. She failed to hide her frustration and anger which revealed her sense of entitlement to the job. We are all entitled to many rights, basic rights but too many of us have none. Wake up Hillary the world doesn’t owe you anything.
