to counter the "free stuff" argument we should require everyone to punch a neoliberal to be eligible for government programs. That way we know everyone is doing their part.

Or just make a huge focused effort to call corporations moochers and tax frauds and their tax breaks "free stuff" and comparing how much money we give away to rear end-plowing CEOs to how much we spend per person on welfare.

If anyone was going to reach out to moderate Republicans and make them vote blue, it sure the gently caress wasn't going to be Hillary Clinton. Republicans have a deeply ingrained hatred of the Clintons that stretches back decades, no amount of centrist appeal is going to overcome that. My deeply Republican mom flirted with the idea of voting Hillary out of disgust with Trump, but in the end she couldn't bring herself to do it and just didn't vote for President.

E: Which breaks decades of regular casting of R votes like clockwork

My parents are both Bill Clinton loving centrists and my dad is the mythical "independent voter" that actually switches back and forth between R and D, while my mom would have loved to see a woman President. They both had a passionate disdain for Hillary which confused even me since they're far closer to her politically than I am.

I hope, one day, we will live in a nation where Hillary will be judged not by the color of her pantsuit, but by the content of her character.
