Wiser people around the Clintons begged them not to do this. It's a shame they didn't listen. All of America isn't past racism but the young generations mostly are. Of course we fought back. I'm very proud because America needs a new path.
I wish America would remember what it felt like when you placed your hopes in JFK and changed history. Give us our chance because we're going to be the ones paying the debt for the old time politics and want to leave something better to our kids.
When I remind my mother of this song she taught us, she smiles. She knows she taught her children well even if we're backing different candidates.

Must have a code that you can live by.
And so, become yourself,
Because the past is just a good bye.
Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by.
And feed them on your dreams,
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.
And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by.
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.
Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by.
And feed them on your dreams,
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.......
