In reply to the discussion: Ms. Clinton [View all]bravenak
(34,648 posts)I'd like to hear more from her about it. I have never felt comfortable with either one of them since. Maybe I'm too young to have developed a bond with the Clintons. People tell me she donates to causes and fight for civil rights, and I think to myself, ok. The Koch's donate millions to the United Negro College fund and the NAACP. Should I trust them? They love talking about prison reform. They give scholarships to young black men for STEM education. ( that's the reason quoting philanthropic efforts makes me shrug)
I see some people who saw nothing wrong with it. I see others like myself that saw the entirety of the campaign and are not willing to say oh well, it's politics. The way her campaign talked about Obama maybe being a drug dealer, oh, no, we're just prepping him for the Republicans, wink wink. Saying his middle name over and emphasizing it started there with her campaign. I wan't to know we won't have another 'welfare reform' brought to us by the Clintons based on buases that they seem to have shown or to have her play triangulation games with blacks vs poor whites to get the 'moderate' vote. That shit is not cool. Be sad if she went up against Ben Carson and acted a fool and let them win. Oh, and , republicans don't seem to do that shit to their black candidates, just ours. I see hear laments about Herman Cain being set up. They loved him so.
