Hilary's father played football at Penn State...
- Thread starter Palm Beach Panther
- Start date
I think it was mentioned as a complete pandering attempt to get more votes in PA. Will probably work on the moronic Joebots.
A good reason not to vote for her, amongst many others
So much for Hillary helping children! LOL! It takes a village, or maybe a 2nd Mile!
Right. So instead you'll be casting your lot for the guy who said this, with a straight face, no less:
"I know a lot about Pennsylvania, and it’s great. How’s Joe Paterno. We’re gonna bring that back? Right?...How 'bout that whole deal?”
Hillary Brother Hugh also played at Penn State in the 1970s and was a Top Quarterback in High School. Like his father, Rodham attended Pennsylvania State University, graduating in 1972 with a Bachelor of Science degree from the College of Health and Human Development. While attending Penn State he was backup quarterback on the Penn State Nittany Lions football team. Rodham was also an active member of the Sigma Triton charge of Theta Delta Chi fraternity at Penn State.
He is a superb speaker as well. He was in a Dark Suit kicking some Balloons and lives in Florida now.
Hillary's Father played Back-Up Tight End at PSU in 1930s.

She is an absolutely ATROCIOUS candidate. I just can't stomach the thought of voting for her.
And yet, somewhat incredibly, she is also very clearly the best available option.
[sigh]
Unreal.
She flat out sucks out loud and will likely be a one-termer. However, if we elect Donald Trump in some sort of misguided effort to stick it to the Dems / Clintons, that would be very short-sighted and among the dumbest decisions in the history of mankind.
I'm an indie so I don't root for either team. In fact, I hate them both. However, I call it like I see it and unfortunately, while the choice sucks, the decision itself is very easy.
Both parties desperately need to get their shitt together because they are both horrible right now.

I thought that Hillary's family connection to PSU was at least somewhat well-known. She didn't mention it in her speech on Thursday night, but Hillary's brother, also named Hugh Rodham, also went to Penn St. and was even a backup quarterback under Paterno in the early 1970s.

Completely agree with everything the Dr. wrote. I am a registered Democrat, but have no problem whatsoever with voting Republican if that is the better option. If the Republicans would have nominated a serious candidate, I would have instantly voted for him in November. Trump is completely unqualified and Hillary is dishonest. At this point, I am leaning toward voting Gary Johnson. I strongly dislike both the major party options for President.
I am 43 and this is the first time I have hated both of the major party candidates. I didn't vote for McCain or Romney, but I did not have any doubt that they were qualified to be President.
The only reason I am a registered Dem. is that voters are frozen out in the primary process here in Pennsylvania if you do not select one of the major parties.
He has made, and continues to make, so many thoughtless and ridiculous statements in the past year, that it is hard to take seriously anything that he says. Hillary has her issues, no doubt, but she is at least a serious person who knows how to navigate the waters of national government.
Keep the politics off the board please. Take it to the locker room.
Absolutely I will vote for trump, he has no political record Hillarys record is horrible, I won't vote for a woman that got people killed and then lied about it, and she also lied about her e mails and a lot of other things, Trump probably just don't know anything about ped state or anything like that, just trying to fit in a little
Apparently PSU didn't stack up academically to meet Hillary's requirements choosing not to attend Happy Valley ! PSU was not good enough for her.
I agree our choices for President are poor, but how can you elect Hillary knowing that she could never qualify for security clearance if she was applying for a government cleared job based on her e-mail fiasco. I had a classified government clearance for my job and if I had used a server that was not secure I would have been fired, lost my pension, my career would have been finished . I never could have worked anywhere requiring a security clearance. Now Hillary wants us to hire her for the top level security job President ? Please.
I believe that our style of governing, with the House of Reps. and US Senate, along with judicial branch will contain Trump if he becomes president, then in 4 years we may have worthy candidates to chose from for president.

Donald Trump would never qualify for a security clearance for many reasons, including...
Donald Trump on his relationship with Putin:
"I have nothing to do with Putin," he said. "I've never spoken to him. I don't know anything about him other than he will respect me."
Donald Trump on his relationship with Putin :
“I was in Russia, I was in Moscow recently and I spoke, indirectly and directly, with President Putin, who could not have been nicer”
Donald Trump on his relationship with Putin:
"I got to know him very well because we were both on 60 Minutes."

This election is basically a choice between Testicular cancer or Colo/rectal cancer. Take your unappealing pick.
It's an amazing thing to feel the need to "defend" Hillary. There have been 9 different investigations into the 2012 Benghazi attack. 7 of those being bi-partisan and none of 9 have implicated Hillary in any neglect or wrongdoing. 9 freaking investigations for Chryst-sake.
It's utterly amazing how uneducated this country has become.

Yeah....pretty much where I am at.
What scares me is both parties are so far apart in understanding anything.
If Trump would win the Dems would think they need to go to a more progressive platform.
If Hillary wins, the Reps think we need to go to a more conservative platform.
What we need to understand is stop pandering to the fringes and apply the Pareto principle and go the 80/20 route. Take care of the majority, the rest or fringe's issues then are more manageable. You got to get the big stuff correct. The little things like Transgendered bathrooms or Abortion is just window dressing
The Clintons and the Obamas hate each other, Obama needs Hillary to win so everything he did won't get repealed and wiped away, everything, Hillary would be the third term of Obama, you know " man caused disasters, work place violence, over seas contingency, not Islamic terroists, not Isis, we can go from worse to worse if Hillary wins
I don't think that is true. Trump has blasted the Penn St. Board of Trustees several times on Twitter, some of which occurred far before he ever announced his candidacy.
Here is a tweet from Trump from 2013 about the PSU Bot:
“The wimps that run Penn State should be forced to resign (and be sued) for the pathetic settlement they made and destruction of great legacy.”

Once when I was curious as to where Chump went to school, I looked it up. Turns out he's a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania.
Hard to imagine that he wouldn't know anything about the Pennsylvania Snake University.
Trump does not know anything about most of what he talks about. That is part of the problem. He is completely uninformed, and does not care.
God help us if Hillary is our next President!!!!! Let's just hope that Trump wins this election.
Comical.
And I don't know if it's either amusing or tragic when a Trump (Drumpf) supporter tries to bring up Hillary's truthfulness, given that one doesn't have to do much research to see that almost everything Trump says is false.
This is exactly the same rationale that the German ex-Chancellor Franz von Papen, the DNVP, and the German business community espoused in 1933 when Hitler was appointed Chancellor.
That worked out pretty well, wouldn't you say?
I know, when the republicans say there's nothing here but others continue to say otherwise my naivete comes through loud and clear.
Bad shit happens, it doesn't mean there was fault to blame. Unfortunately, I live in a fact based world. Like her, don't like her- at the end of the day her policies won't f!ck up an economy like a tenth of Trump's idiotic thoughts.
I'm not even a dem nor do I care for Hillary but I'm also not a moron who is buying that garbage Trump is pushing. The Republicans made this a no brainer when they couldn't reign in their uneducated, "it's cool to be stupid" base. F'n disgrace to nominate a racist, misogynist in 2016.

Yes, but how many conservative voters from the middle of the state will change their minds and vote for her on that reason alone. And you know they just might do it. Even 5% would be a disaster for Trump. In fact, if you didn't post this stuff, the trolls from psu on this board might not have even found out so that they could spread the word among the JoeBots and others. Thanks.
Ugh, the political stupidity on the locker room board is epic, please don't let it bleed over into the other boards.
You don't seem to understand that the Clinton Kaine ticket is center based ticket.
Because you don't actually look at content , but talking points.
It's why the Bernie or Bust lefties aren't getting on board with her
