I'd like to thank Many of the Hillary Supporters
For..

1) Supporting your candidate through some pretty difficult times. While I love to see new people switching over to my candidate, I must say I admire the tenacity.. the loyalty and strength shown by some of you. You make me so proud sometimes how you stand up and hold your ground. Which brings me to number 2...

2) For weathering the storm of what must seem at times like massive waves of venom being spewed not only towards Hillary, but sadly, also at you personally. I do not discount some of the Hillary supporters who have been just as vile, and while I think the hate train has pretty much leveled out for both sides, you all have been a target for quite a long time. My hat off to you all.

3) For most of you NOT lumping us all into one basket. Even through the many threads put out.. much like tonight, I still see reason and grace being displayed in many instances.

4) Lastly, for pushing the issues forward, even when it went against Obama. I'm not talking about some of the false issues recently brought up, but the ones that drive whats important.. more important than the candidates. The issues that will help all of America, and to me, thats more important by far.


I AM an Obama supporter through and through, and will fight for him wherever required. But none of that negates our brothers and sisters who have backed Hillary, and who continue to. It would be a mistake to put one's choice of candidate before our ties with each other. WE are the family through thick and thin.. the candidates are only our chosen vessel to bring about our beliefs. Please remember that as time goes forward guys.


Peace

~LK~

2. Well Said.
I admire Clinton. She is a strong woman and has shwon time and time again through many many attacks and difficulties endured by all and from all of us that indeed she represents the vessel of democratic ideas.

3. I agree,
Hillary is a strong woman.. she is a strong person who could go toe to toe with almost anyone in my opinion.

8. Well said!
Rather than continuing to point out negative posts (on both sides), we should keep recognizing the positives!

WE ROCK! :yourock: :patriot: :grouphug:
