"It's amazing what campaigns will bring out of people ... Sometimes, their real self shines..

through."

Wow, I guess so!

Thanks again for your OP, dsc.. too bad stating the truth about Bernie is taken as a "smear against a liberal".

They can't debate so they resort to personal attacks.

Excellent, Hillary! Mahalo William. Number of times they lied about Hillary and President Obama?

Yeah, I didn't watch.. but I can imagine.. that's their clown bread and circus.

Hillary took good care of the gopropaganda crap.

Yes, it's not just the NYT that's calling CS out.."Obama Allies Blast Schumer on Iran Deal, Talk of

Talk of New Leader (Updated) (Video)"

snip//

MoveOn said its 8 million members will withhold funding for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and from any Democratic candidate who sides with Schumer.

“While not unexpected, it is outrageous and unacceptable that the Democrat who wants to be the party’s leader in the Senate is siding with the Republican partisans and neoconservative ideologues who are trying to scrap this agreement and put us on the path to war,” said MoveOn.org Political Action Executive Director Ilya Sheyman in a statement.

“Our country doesn’t need another Joe Lieberman in the Senate, and it certainly doesn’t need him as Democratic leader. The vast majority of Democratic voters — the people who elected President Obama in part because of our shared belief that war must always be a last resort — will not stand for it.”

And, Racial Equality!

Hillary was talking about racial inequality on June 20, 2015 in San Francisco at the Conference of Mayors..



Started out talking about the massacre in Charleston that had just happened.. and making a good eloquent case for common sense gun laws. Receiving a standing ovation!

"We need to tackle this problem With urgency and conviction. Mentions President Obama kindly 3 times.

"..Take racist violence head on.. struggle with racism is far from finished.."

"Race remains a deep fault line in America.. states racial inequality.

"Can't hide from hard truths on racial injustice.."

Poignant story about Debbie Dills.. I didn't know that.

Encourages "Cities against racism.. and preventing gun violence.."

We have to be "Too busy to hate" "Need more love and kindness in this country."

No wonder Hillary is doing so well with the African American Community on the whole.. she really speaks to them.

Hillary is a strong, powerful, intelligent woman who has the strength and the passion to be our President.

Clip from her speech at Urban League today..



Mahalo William~ We have the best candidate for POTUS!

"Americans who seek an egalitarian society do not tell black activists to keep their mouths shut

because they fear a political hero can't take criticism."

Well done, Bains.. Mahalo for your post.

#BlackLivesMatter is definitely a Woman's Issue, too, calimary.. Mahalo for recognizing that so

astutely.

I can absolutely see why some gop women would be quite tired by now of the gop's War on Women and would want to vote for Hillary.
