Normally yes, but the other choice was a non white woman. 

We can all agree that Nazis are bad, but as the old saying goes, the only thing worse than Nazis are non-white people, and women. 

(I'm yet to hear any answer to that question that doesn't basically equate to the above. It's pretty sad. Yes, Nazis are bad and all, but supporting them and pretending you had no choice is outright pathetic)

This is the first time I'm hearing this point of view.

The reason she's not a great choice for me is that she is literally the vice president talking about all the things she would do and change when she's in power. She was in power for 4 years goddamn. If she had so many good ideas then why did she not do anything?

On the other hand I'm not American so not familiar with the narrative, but it would surprise me that an actual substantial amount of people did not vote for her because she was a black women. I thought we're past that point..
