Hillary goes to Flint - hands out a six pack of Nestles water - says "cut it out"

Seriously - every candidate should be in Flint shouting that the monsters that did this should be in prison and shouting that this is what America can expect if we continue to elect republicans and establishment democrats.

That doesn't surprise me. Just evidence of closed, vindictive minds at work. Do you care about demonizing Hillary Clinton more than you care about the people of Flint?

I'd venture that the people's campaign doesn't really care about actual people very much.

It would be nice if every candidate went to Flint and criticized Snyder. And ask why Snyder has not been called to testify.

Full of sound and fury and signifying nothing.

Someone's on the ground working, someone's sitting on a mountaintop promising unicorns that shit out Skittles. I'll take the worker.

Look, these folks have been too long neglected and put on the back burner. They deserve to be recognized and their urgent needs receive prioritzation. Thanks to Hillary, they're getting it.
