pisses me off to no end; more than Trump ever could. How does one convince another voter that says "Hillary will let in a lot of muslims, scary" to vote for her? He thinks there will be a 'religion war' (he is a very well educated person--Chinese medical doctor).
I think he is fed a lot of repuke propaganda from his patients (acupunturist).

Upon a quick glance, it seems like this campaign is being dominated by weighty issues like racism or American ideals. However, upon inspection, it's all about the disaster and disgrace that every facet of the Trump campaign embodies. It's as if Trump is running alone in an up or down vote of granting him permission to destroy America.

Out of my house since Saturday! We are doing phone banking, training people to register people to vote and sending volunteers out to do voter registration. Just from the volunteers working out of my house, we've probably registered over forty people!

It's gotten noisy with a half dozen people calling and working on data entry. Today is the last day we'll be doing this out of my house. While I have enjoyed the activity, I'm ready for a few quiet hours once they leave tonight.

I've stepped away from it a little and really haven't paid too much attention since the conventions ended.
