2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumIMO posting negatives about Trump is fine but we need to post the Clinton positives.
And there were so many positives stories and things that came out of the convention about Hillary. I suggest we pick one and run with it along with Trumps negatives. There so many I have 3 favorites. The burned 9/11 survivor. Her work with Jamani Freeman. The Eagle Academy, that school in the Bronx. I have a feeling there are more stories out there especially from New York and from 9/11.

(18,307 posts)He's a 9/11 FDNY hero who was ineligible for medical monitoring and treatment when he got sick. Like many first responders, he was very sick as a result of months of working on the pile and at the dump (scouring through debris for remains and personal mementos like wedding rings), but he wasn't the right kind of sick to qualify for the programs in place.
Hillary got funding to expand coverage, she met with experts to set up monitoring programs at one of the best hospitals in NY, and persuaded pharmaceutical giants to provide medication at cost. My husband is still alive with good quality of life and my family isn't bankrupt because of Senator Clinton's efforts.
