AMAZING HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON

Persecuted, hounded, villified, harassed . . . why?

Just because she is a woman.

Brilliant, passionate, erudite, so quick, so beyond capable,
Yet they hate her . . . why?
Just because she's a woman.

And I really wonder and am so confused.
Because what could there possibly be
About her that is really so threatening and frightening
To them, those big strong powerful white boys?

And even more confusing, their wives?

Since it seems beyond me, mostly . . . maybe,
I was almost just ready to quit trying to understand
The unreasonableness, selfishness, bullying, destructiveness,

And just decided to try to pray for them,

(But even more for the people they are hurting.)

Because the saddest thing about what they
Think and believe and how they act
And then chortlle and wink at each other after being so cruel . . .

(Saddest except for how their thinking, acted out,
Leads to suffering, oppression, violence, slavery and death,
Which is incomprehensible so much sadder and more horrible.)

So the second saddest thing is that over and
Over and over again they are really only
Condemning themselves and their offspring
To existence in mean little boxes with no way out . . .why?

Maybe partly because they are afraid
That they will be treated the way they
Have been brainwashed to treat those
Other people not like themselves.

(But haven't there been enough examples
From human history that show conclusively
That the whole thing never works out well
For anyone?)

Really.

Makes me wonder what was kept from their teachers
That they wanted and were cruelly denied maybe . . . why?
So that they feel they have to keep all the marbles
And make sure no one else ever has any at all.

And that they are hurt in such a way that
they will never try to get the marbles.

Ever.

Or any of their kids or grand kids either.

But that sounds like giving them excuses, doesn't it?

When people are not held responsible for how
They hurt others, they have no basis to ask
For forgiveness.

Archbishop Tutu et al have lived that out and
Shown how much healing can begin
Even though scars and devastating loss
And the deepest sorrow may still remain.

But so it was (and is) with crucifixion, death
And resurrection.

So in trying so desperately to win and stay on top,
They tragically not only lose everything, but
Cause everyone connected to them
Now and for generations to come not only to be lost,
But to have to live with the shame and guilt until redemption . . .

Why?

* * * *

Another amazing accomplishment of Hillary
Is that she understands them and
Would like to Help them . . . even them!

Why?

Because she has vision, passion and compassion.

We are so blessed that she and Bill and Chelsea
Have been able to put up with it all; and endure;
And keep on keepin' on. . . and on.

Why?

Because they care and will never give up.

Thanks so very much!

We're still with with you and always will be . . . why?

Because we said so.
