What do you think of the new Clinton campaign slogan?

[grasswire]

STRONGER TOGETHER


What do you think?

[tonyt53]

1. Beats "Cry foul until you believe it" any day.

[bettyellen]

13. Oh SNAP!

HA

[RobertEarl]

21. Bernie says the system is foul

Only those acting dumb would say the system is not foul.

Those who have studied history know how the system can be rigged, those who are not studious would have no clue and are easily led like sheep, eh?

[RogueTrooper]

26. And he benefits

from some of the systems more foul bits. It's Ironic

Kos's rundown

[RobertEarl]

27. Fuck KOS and that POS post

Bernie is playing by the rules and he will win the super delegates because the correct thing for the party to do is to nominate the best candidate. Case closed and fuck KOS.

[zappaman]

30. LOL!!!!!

That's quite the world you live in, Bob.

[RogueTrooper]

32. okay.

Good luck on super delegates: My advice (for what it is worth) is try to steer clear of the death threats as not only have they, in the past, proven to be ineffective (and generate oodles of bad press) but some of these people have secret service protections and they are not known for their sense of humor.

[RobertEarl]

37. Your advice is worth nothing

H is the one who threatens death. Death to the children from Honduras - "Send them back", death to Iraqis, and Libyans and Syrians who have suffered under her tenure as SoS.

So you know what you can do with your 'advice', eh?

[cali]

49. Conservapig Markos. I left kos a couple of years ago because of that.

[Land of Enchantment]

62. jesus, so did I and I stayed away

from everything until this year. What a complete waste of time and energy.

Meteor Blades was my fav. There is nothing but ^^^^ on Kos...

[Chan790]

58. Kos is the scum of humanity.

I'm ashamed daily to share a party with that neo-liberal center-right wank-job.

[Cal33]

68. We will all benefit. Bernie is trying to bring real change to this corrupt

system, with honesty, integrity and decency to all Americans -- not
just to the 1% of already wealthy people. When will you remove those
blinkers from your eyes?

[panader0]

50. Another one who joined mid April.....

[dchill]

2. I think they're worried...

about WEAKER APART.

[Arkansas Granny]

3. I like it.

[One Black Sheep]

4. It's OK. Could be worse, could be better.

Kind of standard stuff and a standard slogan for a political campaign. I'm not blown away by it, that is for sure.

[EndElectoral]

5. It says nothing. I thought she'd go with "No, we can't"

Clinton likes to use words like tough, non nonsense, stronger, etc. bullshit. Republican code words for get in line with me or pay the price.

[applegrove]

6. I think it is great.

[reformist2]

7. Kinda weak.

[timmymoff]

8. She loves to misread the tea leaves

together my ass. I am in no way aligned with that portion of the democratic party and it is about time these conservadems had to face a primary. In 2008 you had a corporatist dem running against a corporatist dem.. wooohoooo guess what we got, a corporatist dem. any surprise there?

[Eric J in MN]

28. I don't think the slogan is about uniting with the leftwing of the party.

I think it's meant to appeal to swing voters who don't like Trump's bigotry and/or who like military aggressiveness.

[timmymoff]

29. Well yea, she really wants to return to her republican roots

[Andy823]

35. I think she wants to unite

All of the Democratic party. I don't think she wants to unite the right wing trolls that have been trashing and bashing her day in an day out. We can unite and she can win against Trump. She was not my first choice, but she will be win she wins the nomination.

[Eric J in MN]

40. When Clinton announces a VP,

...I'll judge based on that if she wants to unite the left-wing and centrist-wing of the Democratic Party.

[Mike__M]

9. DLC & Wall St. Alums -- Stronger Together

It fits.

[JackInGreen]

10. Propaganda

If you're not INside and being one of those contributing to STRENGTH; you're outside, weak, a detractor, a malcontent. It let's them position their slogan as a weapon.
Fuck this "big tent" I've been told my roll is to be silent and obedient, contribute to the strength but hush mah mouth.

[gordianot]

11. Very similar to the old Roman Senate "fascio".

A bundle of rods bound together for strength.

Or maybe:
Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong. - Calvin Coolidge

[BootinUp]

12. Perfect, if you're running against the Trumpster. nt

[cali]

14. Lackluster

[floppyboo]

15. Given her record as SOS and as a neighbour, it scares me. What happened to love and kindness? nt

[grasswire]

17. LOL

Makes me think of Karen Hughes, who wrote all of W's slogans. Remember how stupid and fake they were?

[azurnoir]

16. Paradoxical?

[Maedhros]

18. It's as meaningful as "Tastes great - less filling!"

Marketing slogan.

[floppyboo]

19. same dude I believe...

[NCTraveler]

20. +1

Moderate Revolution

[Eric J in MN]

22. Since she's a hawk, it's a reminder of her hawkishness

...but some voters like hawkishness.

It was probably also intended as a rebuke to Trump's bigotry.

[snowy owl]

23. good slogan - B supporter but campaign is about issues and not personalities. Rhetoric works.

Also, gets bernie-hating msm off his back a little bit. Since it is all one-sided, might as well keep pushing on issues and let the media hate die down if it will.

[MFM008]

24. are we or are we not

Stronger together?
WE MUST DEFEAT TRUMP.
quibbling about party rules or Debbie Wasserman Schultz is so minor to
TRUMP being in the oval office.

[timmymoff]

31. no matter how much you polish a turd it remains a turd.

a new slogan means little except it's a new slogan.

[Ash_F]

25. Better than I'm with her.

[liberal_at_heart]

33. Sorry Hillary you can't just drop the "disqualify, and defeat" part of the slogan,

and expect us to unite the party.

[kgnu_fan]

34. hahaha, again borrowing Sanders slogan! She can not come up with something unique!

[MuseRider]

43. He used ALL the good stuff!

He is so not fair.

[leveymg]

36. STRONGER TOGETHER - Look at the historical symbolism of that statement>

Not very original, and has a bad stench about it, I am afraid.

[icecreamfan]

65. Uninspiring. nt

edit. oops, meant to post this to the OP

[leveymg]

69. Mussolini and his Black Shirts found it inspiring

As did a number of Right wingers in Berlin, London and Washington. That symbol was planted all over in the 1920s and 30s. It is hung on either side of the speaker's podium of the US Senate to this day. Now the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party has adopted that movement's motto as her own in 2016.

Good Gawd what has happened to us?

[jillan]

38. I like it. It's actually pretty good IF she is going to be running against Trump.

[oldandhappy]

39. so she will not be fighting for us any more??

[anotherproletariat]

41. It's true in every situation, so how could anyone disagree. nt

[MuseRider]

42. Who is she talking about?

Who is this together? We know who she likes and who she does not so exactly what does she stand to gain with this? I don't want to be anywhere near some of the people she likes to be together with. As long as Kissinger (to name just one) is part of who she is together with then yikes, that is a group we should all do without. She picked her friends and her attitude poorly if she wanted the rest of us to join up. No thanks, my hands want to stay clean.

[edgineered]

44. I think it may be copyrighted by Verizon

If memory serves correctly, the 'stronger together' slogan appears on a Verizon billboard that was in view while Bernie joined the strikers in NY. Can't remember where the photo was seen, but here it is in print:

Verizon Wireline & Wireless: Stronger Together

link: http://www.vzwworkersrising.org/2015/09/verizon-wireline-wireless-stronger-together/

Maybe someone else has seen it?

[grasswire]

47. yes, you appear to be right

She lifted if from the Verizon workers.

Did she go on their picket line?

[edgineered]

48. Here it is - and it's from October 25th of last year.

[JanMichael]

45. weak and not creative? she needs a branding makeover. nt

[KoKo]

46. Very Weak...considering what is going on in USA these days...

Surprised her Campaign Ops didn't come up with something that would resonate with Average Americans who are being hammered with a very weak Economy, after we Bailed Out Wall Street back in 2008. It's now 2016 and Average Americans and the Poor are still suffering.

Bernie Sanders addresses this....but, Hillary has so much money from Wall Street, Silicon Valley (job exporter #1) along with everything in Tools, Home Gadgets, and everything else sold at Home Depot, Lowes and Ace Hardware along with Sears and Wallmart.

[Sky Masterson]

51. "Now your (Other than registered Democrat) vote matters"

Would be more honest.

[CompanyFirstSergeant]

52. Handcuffs....

.....are not that difficult to bend when they are open.

When they are closed, they are almost unbreakable.

Therefore the two halves are STRONGER TOGETHER.

[senz]

53. It's like a great big Band-Aid

stuck over a huge gaping wound hoping for a thick scab in the middle.

[highprincipleswork]

54. My slogan suggestion - Bring Us Together

[hrmjustin]

55. It beats Sanders slogan.

I came in second so nominate me.

[reddread]

56. FLO and EDDIE?

[Chan790]

57. Lip service is lip service.

Of course, we're stronger together...but she's the one that broke the coalition by embracing any Republican value that polled well. She broke it, it's her responsibility to bring it back together...and that requires mea culpas that Hillary just won't make because they're mea culpas that mean rebuking Bill's legacy as President and embracing Democratic economic values she hates.

[JudyM]

73. Great response (because it's also my reaction)! :)

[asuhornets]

59. luv it

[Ilsa]

60. Is that like kiss-and-make-up? nt

[Jack Bone]

61. Ignorance Is Strength..

War Is Peace...

Freedom Is Slavery...

[BillZBubb]

63. That's sure to net her ZERO votes. It's meaningless without context.

What's it supposed to mean to anyone? What's that got to do with voting for her?

[Nye Bevan]

64. Meh. Insipid, unimaginative, and unexciting.

That's really the best they could come up with?

[winter is coming]

66. I'm wondering what the other finalists were. n/t

[CanadaexPat]

67. Subtext: I'm not Trump.

That's what her whole campaign will be based on. Note the inclusiveness - nod to disaffected Repubs.

[Barack_America]

70. I'm familiar with at least 2 fundraisers that have already used this.

Not impressed.

[Gothmog]

71. I heard Sec. Clinton preview this slogan at a fundraiser on Friday

I like it

[Ino]

72. She likes those "muscular" words...

3 (conditions) actually

1) You in your own voice describe them as “muscular”

2) You note that a look at the CFR seating plan shows that all the envoys — from Holbrooke to Mitchell to Ross — will be arrayed in front of her, which in your own clever way you can say certainly not a coincidence and meant to convey something

3) You don’t say you were blackmailed!

[EndElectoral]

74. lol...It's Supergirl's family motto - "El mayarah" - Stronger, Together. Are you kidding me?

http://supergirl.wikia.com/wiki/Stronger_Together

[grasswire]

75. hahahahaha!!!

what a great insight!

thanks!

[RufusTFirefly]

76. Not quite as good as "Bomb the crap out of the Other" ...

... but I'm sure the neocons will still get the message.

Personally, I always thought "never, ever gonna come to pass" was more accurate.
It can be interpreted an intriguing number of different ways.

[silvershadow]

77. I think "PLEASE vote for me. I NEED you. Puhleeze..pleeeeze..."

Not sure how to translate that groveling sound, that whimpering, almost crying sound, into text...

[Warren Stupidity]

78. Dull insipid unimaginative mundane -

a few of the words it inspired in me.

[BernieforPres2016]

79. Nothing could possibly be worse than the self absorbed "I'm with her" nt

[Octafish]

80. ''I'm with herd''.

[Katashi_itto]

81. "1984: Not an Instruction Manual"
