Was the Democratic primary race for President rigged by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign? Yes, Elizabeth Warren said yesterday, after Donna Brazile’s revelations. Brazile served as chair of the DNC at the time, so she should know.
Of course many recognized the DNC bias during the race. It was obvious. Supporters of Hillary Clinton refused to confront it, because it contradicted what they preferred to believe about Hillary. We are all subject to bias confirmation, me especially. That’s how humans operate.
From the day Bill Clinton appeared on the national scene, I understood he was Snopeslike. The man reeked of sleaze. He and his wife ran for office to get rich—they started poor and ended wealthy. The Clintons weren’t crooks like Trump, just deeply unethical, and I have to say that ethics and American politics are incompatible. Some elected officials are more ethical than others, but you’d be pressed to find one that hasn’t betrayed others for personal gain. That’s how the game gets played.
In three national elections I voted for a Clinton.
