- With all my due respect for Clinton, I don't believe he really cares
- one way or the other. He acts under pressure of all the interest
- groups and of his own promises. In politics personal feelings ('care'),
- moral or humanitarian considerations don't play any role whatsoever.
- If he appoints women or minorities to high posts, it's not because he
- cares, it's because of Realpolitik. There is something wrong with the
- system in which the most sizable minority (gays) can be so blatantly
- ignored.
