    Don't blame you for being concerned. I don't agree with this campaign rhetoric either but am 100% sure it won't go anywhere. Mostly because Nevada Sen. Harry Reid (D) actually went beyond campaign rhetoric and actually introduced legislation that would have ended jus soli back in 1993.

    This was before facebook, twitter and triggers of course. Hell it was back when Hillary was against gay marriage and before she allowed husband to get his knob polished by interns but wouldn't leave him because that's where the power was at.

    Now, just a short 23 years later...

    All the gays want to celebrate their weddings by inviting Hillary and not in an ironic way. All of the fathers want to their daughters to live in a world where strong and independent females like Hillary are POTUS. And La Raza is endorsing Reid.


    I think we're going to be ok.....

They didn't give me the details but said she did get something passed that benefited them. That was all they had when I asked for accomplishments. Having your name on hundred of bills doesn't mean you had something to do with passing of the bill. She made a comment about being involved on over 400 pieces of legislation.

    In the end I find her not qualified based on her dreams of open borders and the 500% importation increase of refugees while we still have people with issues in the states. Maybe Trump fibbed on some stuff to get elected but Hillary lied about her actions while Sos and items over her career. Remember being under sniper fire?

    Alan don't you see the incompetence in her handling of classified information and then lying about it to congress? That doesn't bother you? People mention they worry about Trump and nuclear missles. Far as we know Hillary would leave the nuclear codes with her maid or in someone's car.

    In the end we will all be fine.

    It's a mixed bag.

    1 part osmosis from her time as First Lady...when she was allowed in the Oval of course.
    1 part experience in naming a few post offices and a court house.
    1 part gender
    1 part she waited long enough for her turn damit!



    The above is sarcastic of course. Hillary did a fine job of methodically building a resume that looked good on paper.

    CHIP was an HRC initiative that halved the number of uninsured children and currently insures 8 million.

    As Senator, HRC expanded health care access for members of the National Guard and reservists, and worked to expand the Family Medical Leave Act, allowing family members of those wounded in service to take leave to provide care.

    As Sec of State, organized all members of the UN Security Council to back the toughest sanctions on Iran, ever.

    She has served our country as a Senator, First Lady, and Secretary of State. She did so with competence, grace, and dignity.

    The quote about open borders wasn't a plan, but an aspiration about free hemispheric trade. It wasn't about throwing open the borders to all and sundry.

    When she landed in Tuzla, the plane had to approach the runway at a steep angle to avoid sniper fire.

    "I was on the plane with then First Lady Hillary Clinton for the trip from Germany into Bosnia in 1996. We were put on a C-17 — a plane capable of steep ascents and descents — precisely because we were flying into what was considered a combat zone. We were issued flak jackets for the final leg because of possible sniper fire near Tuzla. As an additional precaution, the First Lady and Chelsea were moved to the armored cockpit for the descent into Tuzla. We were told that a welcoming ceremony on the tarmac might be canceled because of sniper fire in the hills surrounding the air strip. From Tuzla, Hillary flew to two outposts in Bosnia with gunships escorting her helicopter."


    She didn't lie to Congress.

    Question

    That's all you got - cut and past Party talking points !

    She built a Political career off other people's legislation and their accomplishments/programs.

    She gloms onto things like "CHIP" and "health care access for members of the National Guard and reservists, and worked to expand the Family Medical Leave Act" - then says/claims to have "Increased access" - "Extended benfits for" - She's a fraud who uses other people to make herself look good.

    Like her Clinton Foundation - they used to claim they "Provided much-needed aids medication to over 30 Million people in Africa - her Foundation saved the lives of millions of Africans" throught their Charity.

    Truns out when ABC news and others investigated - the Clinton Foundation did not "Buy or ship any aids medicine to the patients in Africa". The reason the news media started investigating is rumors came out of millions still dying even after recieving the medicine. http://www.wnd.com/2015/04/clinton-f...aids-patients/

    Later the Foundation changed their media information to read, "The Clinton Foundation increased the access to aids medicine for the people of Africa. But that wasnt the end of that - they were later forced to be even more honest and wrote that they "Helped negotiate the price" - every thing the Clintons do is a play on words.

    They get paid while raising millions that don't end up doing what was promised. Like Haiti > http://www.globalresearch.ca/how-the...n-ihrc/5546737

    Some people don't want to see the truth - now that she will no longer have the potential protection of Washington - maybe the IRS/FBI will do their jobs and finish their investigations of the Clintons Foundations -

    FYI

    Let's try it this way : Try and answer these questions.


    1) "How many tons of medicine did the Clinton Foundations "Buy and ship" to aids patients in Africa - where - when ? "
    2) "How many tons of food did the Clinton Foundations "buy and ship" to needy starving people - where - when ? "
    3) "How many tons of building materials did the Clinton Foundations "buy and ship" to be used to build shelters or schools - where - when ? "

    Try not to distract or dodge by being selective in your answers.

    The Clinton Foundations have been a Global Pyramid Scheme. It have moved untaxed, unchecked, unaccounted for BILLIONS of dollars Globally. The lions share of money reported went to employees, benefits and lavish travel exspenses.

    There needs to be a full forensic IRS/FBI audit/investigation into the entire Clinton Foundations.

    You have quite an imagination, now imagine yourself understanding how a guy like Trump was elected. FYI it wasn't because of neo nazis, or righties interrupting sessions with play doh, cuddle times and legos at college campuses. The Democratic party failed it's constituency, miserably, among many reasons.

    I heard a statement on one of the news or talking head shows. Basic idea was the Democratic party was focusing on issues that only effected a small group of people while issues that effect most everyone were ignored. In the end what is more important to large groups of people. Issues that effect every one or issues like which bathroom someone is going to use.

    Just wait until we replace benign neglect of the economically insecure with a full-out war on them in order to cut taxes on the wealthy. Should be fun.

    Who has said lets neglect the economically insecure?

    Do you believe as tax payers we should have open borders and foot the bill for everyone and anyone who wants to come into the country? I believe it's reported illegal immigration costs the net tax payers billions of dollars a year in support cost. Those billions could go to the current legal USA "economically insecure" before adding more "economically insecure" from other countries.

    You said that the Democrats did that. Quote: "...the Democratic party was focusing on issues that only effected a small group of people while issues that effect most everyone were ignored." Benign neglect.

    The President-elect is poised to replace benign neglect of the middle and working classes with overt, malignant economic assaults. Should be fun!

    We'll have to see how it ends up.

    here is what I said.

    I heard a statement on one of the news or talking head shows.

In the end what is more important to large groups of people. Issues that effect every one or issues like which bathroom someone is going to use.
    I guess you can call what the Dems did as "Benign neglect"

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benign_neglect

    Benign neglect was a policy proposed in 1969 by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who was at the time on President Richard Nixon's staff as an urban affairs adviser. While serving in this capacity, he sent the President a memo suggesting, "The time may have come when the issue of race could benefit from a period of 'benign neglect.' The subject has been too much talked about. The forum has been too much taken over to hysterics, paranoids, and boodlers on all sides. We need a period in which Negro progress continues and racial rhetoric fades."[1]

    The policy was designed to ease tensions after the Civil Rights Movement of the late 1960s. Moynihan was particularly troubled by the speeches of Vice-President Spiro Agnew. However, the policy was widely seen as an abandonment of urban neighborhoods, particularly ones with a majority black population, as Moynihan's statements and writings appeared to encourage, for instance, fire departments engaging in triage to avoid a supposedly futile war against arson.[2]
