There's been lots of negativity around this weekend. Here's something inspirational instead.

Pass around if you can.

Congratulations: If You Voted for Hillary, Here’s What You’re Responsible For

By Peter Daou
May 15, 2016

As Hillary gets closer to clinching the Democratic nomination, let’s examine what a vote for her signifies.

If you voted for Hillary — or intend to do so — here’s what you’re responsible for:



You’ve made the media look powerless.


The national media have done everything in their power to undermine Hillary’s campaign, eagerly doing the bidding of her political rivals. From emails to transcripts, they have hammered her incessantly while giving a pass to Donald Trump. By carrying her to victory after victory, you’ve made the media’s efforts to derail Hillary a complete failure.






You’ve sent an inspiring message to anyone who feels invisible.

Day after day, week after week, month after month, we’ve heard about Hillary’s so-called “enthusiasm gap.” We’ve heard that voters are excited about other candidates but not about Hillary. We’ve heard that she doesn’t get crowds. We’ve heard that Hillary’s 12.5 million voters don’t matter. By contributing to her success in the face of efforts to marginalize and silence you, you’ve sent a powerful message that no one is invisible.





You’ve helped ensure a more promising future for every girl..............
