2. Flint did not "Go National" until she mentioned it at that debate--that is just the truth.

Locals were crying out for help, and it was a state issue, and a few interested parties were trying to make it more visible, but it was her "Big Finish" at the end of that debate that focused the spotlight on the place--suddenly, all the media cared.

Great ad. Compelling.

This is precisely why candidates are reluctant to be candid with voters. It is to their electoral advantage to simply "drink the Kool-Aid" and pander to the voters who will decide their fate at the ballot box. So long as the pandering does not appear too blatant, it is a time-tested operational tactic that, when employed correctly and adroitly, can win the day for a presidential candidate.

6. That is a high-quality pander. n/t

8. The water issue is new but I've been aware of the plight of Flint since before Bill was elected

and I really don't recall efforts on behalf of Flint by Bill or Hillary or the Foundation prior to this. I can list many great things the Foundation has done which I support strongly. Flint has not been on that radar as far as I can tell. It could have been. Maybe it was. If so the OP should tell us about that.

9. Another excellent add

She is laying the ground work for the GE. A large black turnout should ensure Michigan is not in play in the general.
