My message to Hillary
Personal info removed, otherwise my entire correspondence:

Ron

liberaltrucker@****.com

Senator Clinton, My Democratic leanings are to support you as our candidate. However, I've heard nothing from you concerning labor-specifically the writer's strike. Senator Edwards made his position crystal clear:

My gut says to vote for you. However, logic says otherwise,
considering you accepted money from Rupert Murdoch.

I'm from the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party. For
the record, the DLC has f'ed up big time. It's time for real
Progressives to take over our beloved Party. FDR would smile.

If you or any on your staff wish to contact me,
please feel free to call ***-***-**** or Email liberaltrucker@ *****.com or ***********@*********.net.

I can be with you, Senator. Are you with me?

Peace,

Ron.

2. I don't get it
She, and Bill support NAFTA. Mexican trucks are already here.
Sooner or later, they'll depress our wages. I.Just.Don't.Get.It.

9. She's issued a statement in support of the strike:
"I support the Writers Guild's pursuit of a fair contract that pays them for their work in all mediums,” Sen. Clinton said. “I hope the producers and writers will return to the bargaining table to work out an equitable contract that keeps our entertainment industry strong and recognizes the contributions writers make to the success of the industry."
