Good on Hillary for telling white America to stop pretending that their experiences are black people's experiences. Practice some empathy.

(297,196 posts)Hillary to Jeb:
I dont think you can credibly say that everyone has a right to rise and then say youre for phasing out Medicare, or repealing Obamacare, Clinton charged. People cant rise if they cant afford health care. They cant rise if the minimum wage is too low to live on. They cant rise if their governor makes it harder for them to get a college education. And you cant seriously talk about the right to rise and support laws that deny the right to vote.

(7,358 posts)Yeah, right Hillary. So the Corporations are running things and the people be damned. You're the only candidate that knows how to work with Corporate America, since of course you're highly funded by them. Nothing like an insider to tell the truth. Bernie Sanders lives in a world of fantasy.

(53,032 posts)as though it means anything. Suddenly, in 2015 you figure out you live in a capitalist society, but rather than seeking to understand its role in US society you decide its all about keeping one woman from becoming president.

"Clinton didnt equivocate to the audience here as to whether she was on Obamas side or not. And she ripped Republicans namely Jeb Bush on Friday for saying they want to repeal Obamacare, snipping at the name of Bushs political action committee, to some of her most enthusiastic applause."
I love this!
Oh heck.. another snip//
"Clinton certainly played to the affinity that voters have for Obama, even alluding to the eulogy of South Carolina State Sen. Clementa Pinckney, in which Obama sang Amazing Grace. Said Clinton, Obama delivered a eulogy that sounded like it had come straight from angels.
But Clinton more than held her own with this audience, 95% of whom voted for Obama. I thought she was more comfortable than Ben Carson, Jones said. And hes black.
WOW!

(297,196 posts)the whole dynamic of the Democratic campaign.. which is Vital!
Although, Hillary was talking about racial inequality on June 20, 2015 in San Francisco at the Conference of Mayors..
Started out talking about the massacre in Charleston that had just happened.. and making a good eloquent case for common sense gun laws. Receiving a standing ovation!
"We need to tackle this problem With urgency and conviction. Mentions President Obama kindly 3 times.
"..Take racist violence head on.. struggle with racism is far from finished.."
"Race remains a deep fault line in America.. states racial inequality.
"Can't hide from hard truths on racial injustice.."
Poignant story about Debbie Dills.. I didn't know that.
Encourages "Cities against racism.. and preventing gun violence.."
We have to be "Too busy to hate" "Need more love and kindness in this country."
No wonder Hillary is doing so well with the African American Community on the whole.. she really speaks to them.

Hillary is a strong, powerful, intelligent woman who has the strength and the passion to be our President.

(297,196 posts)Clinton is not black, nor does she have a black spouse and black children, which Obama used
effectively while campaigning to reach black voters in 2008. But Clinton showed a capacity for empathy that took some at the plenary by surprise."

(297,196 posts)She impresses me more every day.
I think she is the best person to keep this country moving in the direction President Obama has initiated.
Which is the right direction, in my humble opinion!
The last Republican administration was an economic and foreign affairs disaster. I'm sure she will remind people of this as the campaign continues.
