Hillary in Colorado

Really enjoyed listening to her speak in Colorado just now.

She touched on bringing jobs back to America (and getting a jab in at Trump for having his merchandise made elsewhere). Then she talked about rebuilding the infrastructure in America. She spent a lot of time talking about education and its importance. She mentioned fighting for free college tuition and the crowd was really into it. She then spent some time talking about how broadband internet should be a fixture in every home in America, and ended on some thoughts on gun control, respect for the military and civil rights for all.

All in all a really great succinct speech. She made a few references to Trump but there were no personal attacks nor did she try to whip the crowd into an anti-Trump frenzy. This is how a presidential campaign should be run.
