I am not voting for Hillary Clinton, regardless of her endorsement by Bernie Sanders. My decision isnt because of the scandal around her emails or because of some concern over her character. My reasons are pretty straightforward. I dont agree with her ideologically.
Democratic values centered on economic and racial justice shape my own politics. Im not convinced those values shape hers. Nothing Clinton says or intends to do if elected will fundamentally transform the circumstances of the most vulnerable in this countryeven with her concessions to the Sanders campaign. Like the majority of Democratic politicians these days, she is a corporate Democrat intent on maintaining the status quo. And I have had enough of all of them.

A lot of repugs will stampede off shows that call them out. So play chickens clucking as they leave.
