Carl Reiner is a comedy legend, and we respect him for that. But we can’t really respect him for this logic:
Is is not about time that we, who were born & lovingly raised by our mothers do everything to insure that we elect our 1st woman President?

Sigh.
Is this for real? Our mothers loved us, let's elect a woman? https://t.co/7Luy46rUcV

Yeah … that’s not gonna cut it, Carl.
@carlreiner should be based upon the most qualified person. You don't vote for a woman simply because she is a woman

@carlreiner Don't you think it's rather shallow to base a vote in a presidential election strictly on gender?

@carlreiner Not voting for someone just because they happen to be a woman. That's dumb.

@carlreiner only if she is the best candidate, not because she has estrogen running through her body. That would be a disservice to mothers

@carlreiner just because I have a mother does not mean I need to vote for someone because they also are biologically able to be a mother…

@jamestaranto @carlreiner Seriously? You believe because we all have mothers, we should vote for Hillary as POTUS?

@carlreiner we should elect a president based on more than the candidate's gender or complexion, so no, it's not about time.

@carlreiner Voting for a woman simply because she is a woman is the exact opposite of feminism. Actually, it's quite sexist.

Indeed.

@carlreiner that day will come but not this year. @HillaryClinton is not worthy with her scandals. Sorry Carl.

@carlreiner – It would be nice to have a woman president, but not THIS one. She is a lying, conniving, deceitful person. Just horrible.

@carlreiner when I think of my mom, believe me Hillary is the last one that comes to mind.
