She's way too corporate for me (but, yes, I'll vote for her in the general). But she doesn't take s&*t and I admire that.

USA come from corruption in government and big business, racism, and income suppression in the poor and middle classes. Only a moron sees babies as a problem. Oh, one other problem: fools who vote against their own economic and tranquillity interests.

I think since the Donald wants to make this an issue, they should introduce the actual human beings that are being made a political football out of. The so called illegal immigrants. Lets ee em. What do they look like , where are they from what are their names and why are they here. So many interesting topics to take advantage of for our democrat party.
But the progressive wing of the party seems very quiet and the 3rd way dems seem to be in control. The establishment dems .
Thats why I worry. The establishment is so boring. They are so corporate,bought and paid for they are republicans in many ways.
So Jeb wants to be a bad guy like Donald. He probly drank too much coffee.

Is he saying we need to round up pregnant women and send them away before they can have babies here? Is he saying we need to deny citizenship to children born in the US if we suspect they were anchor babies? Is he saying we need to prevent people from using a US-born baby as a reason to bring the whole family to the US? What is the problem, Jeb? Or are you just trying to whip up a little fear and hatred? Oh, wait... Why do I even have to ask that question?

Acts a bit like a baby and anchors a TV opinion show that masquerades as a news channel segment.
