Why (or why not) to vote for Hillary Clinton

Here too but it’s like x10 when typed. Others that seem to amplify that way for me are_ naturally_ and obviously and of course (unless it’s part of a matter of course and not as a substitute for obviously/naturally),

Oh and at the end of the day… hate that. At the end of the day I go home, have dinner with my family and relax while reminiscing about earlier in the day when I stabbed a guy for saying that.

I don’t think he’s trying to offend, probably more just looking to splash the most recent Clinton-points for some poor google-fu.

If you are going to post comments directed at me, then you need to follow and remember what you posted.

You are completely out of line questioning the decision making and integrity of any black woman.

I guarantee you starting with the South Carolina primary and Super Tuesday; you will witness the beginning of the end of the so-called revolution known as the Bernie Sanders campaign.

Hillary Diane Rodham Clnton will be the 45th President of the United States.

We’ll see.

How about you acknowledge the points being made against you instead of obliviously blithering?

You’ve earned our disrespect.

That’s as off-base as your weird premise for this entire thread, that you feel criticism of Obama is disrespectful, a sentiment as undemocratic as any fascist firing squad.

Also, you totally didn’t read the article you posted, The BLM moms claimed they weren’t prompted or prodded for their endorsements, the next several paragraphs are devoted to describing the prompting and prodding by the Clinton campaign and Clinton herself as they specifically sought the endorsements.

It isn’t questioning the decision making or integrity of a person to read an article and repeat what is there. And in my post I specifically wrote that the average moms swept up in a charm offensive intended to garner their endorsements were blameless.

Your guarantee isn’t worth used toilet paper if it is anything like your ability to discuss or debate high matters. For god’s sake you didn’t even read the article, If you even skimmed it you did so without a critical mind present.

Sorry, I don’t want to confuse you. Critical thinking is not equivalent to being critical of someone or something (which is not by necessity negative btw). Critical thinking is objective analysis or evaluation of a subject or issue in order to form a judgement. I read the article, the glaring contradiction between the first quote in the 5th paragraph and the information in the 4 following paragraphs is evident.

Hey it was your non sequitur. If you didn’t want people to read it, don’t post it. Here’s a neat trick for you, if not for most people here, it’s a segue. We -were- talking about consistency in a post or two b4 your non sequitur,

That’s your candidate in support of her husbands justice reforms that severely ramped up the number of young black people being sent to jail, in such numbers that the prison system was over-whelmed, largely in part to some of the stupidest mandatory sentencing policies ever, particularly the 3 strikes portion, wherein a person could (and did) receive life sentences for shoplifting.

She helped build the problems in the US with regard to mass incarceration, racial profiling, mandatory sentencing, and it led to increased recidivism in the communities these problems broke, becoming the war on the people by the police we see today.

But you’re all for her, rah rah rah, yet you can’t legibly say why.

See, we were talking about their relative positions on civil liberties and their consistency over their careers in these matters. You practically told me post this, a video of your candidate referring to young black offenders, often the victims of a biased criminal justice system, as “super predators…that need to be brought to heel”

No, she hasn’t apologized yet. Her husband has said he regrets doing what he did, but so far Hillary is a-ok with calling people predators and suggesting we treat them like DOGS.

I’m pretty sure most folks sharing those views would prefer we treat dogs better than young black offenders.

And Erica Garner backed Sanders. I think we’re seeing something of a generational divide in this election, even among African Americans.

Do you think Khepra sees the irony of starting this thread to rant about Sanders disrespecting Obama, and then turn around and disrespect the #BLM movement?

I think the odds of that are worse than the chance that Jesus Christ was a Real Person.

Peace out.

Disrespecting BLM,

totally not understanding that there aren’t now and were not in the 90’s any black “super-predators”, only criminals, and not always, that demonizing helped fill public prisons and bolster the private prison industry magnificently

reverse slave vessels, packing people (any people, but particularly black people) into cargo holds like sardines and shipping them to Africa

one-upping Clinton’s super-predator by naming them savage predators…

No, no one saw any of that coming that’s for sure, poor guy was already in the air before anyone noticed the pool was empty.

I’m still trying to work out how this relates to the Afrocentric pseudohistory copypasta that is Khepra’s other contribution here. Very strange mix.

I wonder what Khepra’s response to this will be?

Whether it is a Black Lives Matter activist or a Bernie Sanders supporter, the super predator line of attack will not work or alter the African-American vote for Hillary Clinton. This has been witnessed by the African-American vote in Nevada, South Carolina and soon to be witnessed on Super Tuesday.

Black Lives Matter is not representative of a significant portion of the African-American voting electorate witnessed in Nevada and South Carolina.

Not very many people in the African-American community have any sympathy for a gang or gang member who sells drugs, creates an atmosphere of terror in the African-American community, indiscriminately shoots into crowds and homes killing innocent African-American women and children. These gangs and gang members have no respect for their own lives or anyone else.

African-American’s have endured slavery, brutal sharecropping laws, Black Codes, violent and barbaric lynchings and race riots, Jim Crow segregation, institutional racism and bibotry…yet no one in the African-American community because of their social circumstances resorted to mindless killing of innocent women and children.

The African-American vote for Hillay Clinton in Nevada, South Carolina and to be witnessed on Super Tuesday shows the African-American community is well aware of Hillary and Bill Clinton’s record of service on behalf of the African-American community.

Millions of dollars raised for the United Negro College Fund.

Millions of childrens lives covered and saved because if the State Children’s Health Insurance Program.

The Clinton Foundation’s research on Aids in Africa leading to lives being saved.

The Clinton Foundation’s work on economic empowerment and development in Africa.

Low African-American unemployment and rising wages during the presidency of Bill Clinton, which is poised to be emulated by the 45th President of the United States, Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton

Guess he shouldn’t have gotten himself banned for many months by being abusive to anyone who didn’t agree with him on his nuanced take on Sanders.

The ban didn’t get up into the many months until he opened that new account as I recall.
