Does Hillary feel entitled?

Wow. Hillary's breakdown seems deeper and deeper as I continue to replay it. I'm ready to call it a serious political gaffe. Read between the lines, what is she really saying? She says "this is very personal for me, it's not just political, it's not just public." So what does that mean? Is that a sense of 'entitlement' I hear in her voice? Does she think she rightfully deserves the nomination? Does she somehow feel more entitled to the presidency? Sure she was out in front of the polls but polls aren't what hold up a democracy, fair elections are what determine the direction of a democracy, and when the voters actually voted she wound up in third and wound up in tears.

She says "I see what's happening and we have to reverse it." Wow, that's the gaffe right there. Hello?!? What's happening is a very progressive movement and she wants to reverse it? Reverse progress? It's a kind of progress that she isn't recognizing. It's a brand of change that she isn't prepared to embrace or support. That's disappointing. Please have some vision. Americans are feeling inspired to become a very great generation and that's her response to it?

And this is the part I love, despite what millions of voters say, she still says "Some of us are right and some of us are wrong." I mean, I am really surprised at the true nature of her thinking because that teary momnent really exposed what is going on in her head.
