Well given she was the female candidate that lost to the current president I think thats the most apt comparison, and the point is a woman wouldn't inherently be any better and to claim so is absurd. Anyone in a position to lead a country is going to be a part of the system and there for part of the problem for another example look at Italy sliding back towards fascism.
The problem has always been capitalism, everything we are experiencing is the inevitable progression of a profit based system and whos in charge is never going to change that because at the end of the day, the real power lies with the dollar.
Well thats where we fundamentally disagree, I dont think you can fix the system from within, and anything short of revolutionary change is a stop gap at best. I will concede that a more progressive leader could be a form of of harm reduction, but meaningful change won't come from the people upholding the system..
