Women leaders, such as Secretary Clinton, give me hope for a better tomorrow.

@mykole84 Lol, where do you live? Where I live men are not forced to take paternity tests and are not forced to sign the birth certificate. I smell BS coming from your direction. You clearly haven't thought this through- supporting live children who need to be fed and clothed is a different thing entirely to allowing a pregnancy to continue. In the former case actual suffering occurs. How selfish of you.

@lildarkangel3001 Is it the father's child AS WELL AS the mother's child?

Yeah, I thought so.

[lildarkangel3001]

@StandUpForCanada1867 are they the ones carrying the kid for 9 months? didn't think so

Go get 'em secretary. Both the majority of the thinking world and the working class world are on your side. We don't need American religious right middle aged white men telling poor brown women how they should or shouldn't decide.

what a load of crap

that thing has no clue to how we "normal" ppl live

I've been there, I've seen that,..... go live there for a year without your wealth, then come back to us

and it's so clear the first part of your answer was not only intimidation but practiced in advance

oh, and what about the suffering of you own ppl?

Bill is to good for you!

@cathlicscholboy4life BULLSHIT ... women's rights. What about the rights of the unborn? What about the rights of the father? Doesn't he have a say if the mother chooses abortion? It's his kid too, you know.

The united states are using third world countries like us(Philippines) to save their economy. They wanted us to agree to the RH bill so that their condoms will be sold. In this case we are saving their economy. Did you know that once the Americas and the European Union falls and dissolves, the Philippines will still survive and won't be affected since our economy is well performing especially in microfinances.

After years this has been proven that Hillary is telling a lie and that her claims aren't supporting any facts and have proven nothing. What is happening in the US? Worst cases and more-millions of babies being aborted. Good job Hillary!
