Margaret Sanger said black people are weeds that need to be exterminated.

Are you ok with Hillary supporting such a racist woman as Margaret Sanger who promoted Eugenics, claiming that black people were weeds that need to be exterminated? Yes, or No.

No.
I had a facebook account permanently disabled because I posted something very similar about Hillary Clinton.
Perhaps the moron who disabled my FB account thought I was making it up, when in fact it is true. -
Terrible. I don't use Facebook, and haven't for a long time. I prefer to speak to people rather than just spy on them.
-
Hillary praises Susan B Anthony (mother of suffragette movement) and Emmeline Pankhurst (mother of feminism).
Both of these women were elitists, racists and man haters.
You can find some of the audio of some of their speeches on line and they are shocking, to say the least.
These bitches would be hated today, but feminists still portray them as saints.

Well, contemporary (1960's+) feminist logic would tell you that "It's the 'sins of the the father', not the mother". In other words, you get a pass for being a poor, oppressed woman. You can't be held accountable for anything. Every wrong action can somehow be attributed entirely to someone or something else ("the patriarchy", "privilege", "capitalism", etc.). Things get even dicier when you bring Intersectionalism into the picture.
To be honest, I haven't heard the speeches you're referring to (let alone the quote the OP posted), nor am I especially motivated to seek them out to confirm your claim. I'm perfectly content to bitch about the hypocrisy and Cultural Marxist doublethink within certain sects of modern feminism, though.

The problem with this quote is that historians have never seen this before until it all of a sudden started popping up in memes on facebook. No one knows where this came from and there is no record or proof she ever said this. Historians are convinced she never did. The closest reference to this she ever made was one considering birth control, immigration, and non-assimilating foreigners/people.
Didn't include all the quotes.
"Birth Control does not mean contraception indiscriminately practised. It means the release and cultivation of the better elements in our society, and the gradual suppression, elimination and eventual extinction, of defective stocks–those human weeds which threaten the blooming of the finest flowers of American civilization."
Clearly your quote was altered to great effect. One could easily take those references and put black people as the target since the language of those references can easily relate to racist views and beliefs towards black people. Literally replacing the subject in those references with black people would be the scripture of the kkk.
I sometimes wonder if Trump supporters ever had an idea about Hillary at all....
It seems to me that your thoughts is just someone else fevered opinions. -

To be fair, that's still really bad, even without the concocted racism. It's the sort of statement I'd expect to hear from some Randroid speedfreak.

I would normally say one could be on the fence when you try to take the quote from a neutral stand but if you read some of there other works you do find that she seems to be rather elitist. She has used the word weeds many times and it is most accurately put to say she uses it to refer to groups that seem more of a burden to society than not in their current state. She has made racist comments though not towards blacks. I'm certain when she uses weeds she is referring blacks, Asians, Indians, orphans, poor and "dumb" white people, immigrants of the 1920's before the depression. Reading her work would more likely put those race groups on the list only because of their common poor status in the US and less so for their race. Later in her life during and before the civil rights she was ahead of her time in her and approach to other races that seems to be a 180 when looking at some of her early works. She rejected race based inherited traits that likely in her early years she seemed to except. She was still young and knew only what other people "knew". She went out of her way to help minorities and ensured that her staff were of the same mind in her later years. Someone who grew up in the beginnings of the 1900 would have racist beliefs most likely and she seemed to have thrown them off, aside from her anti-mass immigration stance. She was anti-immigrant because the load of immigrants coming in had nothing to offer, were poor, were orphans, and had only dreams and no awareness or real expectations. It was just america, the land of opportunities to them. We did brand it that way though….
If we cannot except tate people can overcome an evil heritage and rise for the better then Trumps history in the 80-90's should be throwing up warning flags. Sanger did more to lose the poison of the early 1900's and did more for minorities whereas Trump begrudgingly acquiesces to denounces the kkk in his not-so-fiery way. There are newspaper articles from 1927 with Trumps father being arrested at a clan rally. The papers give their address and and his name. Couple this with his actions with mobster Libuti, the Central Park 5, testimonies from african-americans that worked for him in the 80's that weren't allowed in the front when he was there, his rhetoric during rallies, and etc. then we should hold him in a harsher light. It's 2016, not 1927.
