Hillary has some strong opinions on how the elections are turning out so far. Excerpts from what she told reporters today. SOURCE.
HILLARY ON THE BLACK VOTE:
Hillary Clinton dismissed Barack Obama’s weekend wins today. She told reporters who had gathered to watch her tour a General Motors plant in Maryland that “everybody knew, you all knew, what the likely outcome of these recent contests were.”
“These are caucus states by and large, or in the case of Louisiana, you know, a very strong and very proud African-American electorate, which I totally respect and understand.”
HILLARY ON THE CAUCUS STATES:
Clinton has publicly dismissed the caucus voting system since before Super Tuesday, seeking to lower expectations heading into a series of contests that played to Obama’s advantage. His campaign features what many consider to be a stronger and more dedicated grassroots organization than Clinton’s.
Clinton argued that caucuses are “primarily dominated by activists” and that “they don’t represent the electorate, we know that.”
- According to Hillary, the outcome of these caucus states don’t represent what the people there want: Alaska, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Minnesota, Nevada, North Dakota, Nebraska, Washington, Maine, Hawaii, Wyoming, (Puerto Rico).
HILLARY ON THE RED STATES:
“It is highly unlikely we will win Alaska or North Dakota or Idaho or Nebraska,” she said, naming several of Obama’s red state wins. “But we have to win Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Florida, Michigan … And we’ve got to be competitive in places like Texas, Missouri and Oklahoma.”
Dismissing half the nation between caucus states, red states and African Americans, in one fell swoop is quite an accomplishment. Additionally, New Jersey, New York, and California will be blue states regardless of whether Hillary runs. They will support the democratic candidate as always.
Activism
n. The use of direct, often confrontational action, such as a demonstration or strike, in opposition to or support of a cause.
- So, the people who show up and support Obama are confrontational activists and/or just “African-American and proud”? (What exactly does that mean by the way?)
- And what of the Nevada caucus where Hillary won? She held a victory rally after that. Was she celebrating activists who supported her?
The Clinton campaign didn’t have a healthcare plan befor it felled and they don’t have one now. Well to be honest, if everyone is a goverment employee, then the Clinton healthcare plan will work for everyone. Unfortunately some are self employed, independent contractors or work for private employors or small business. Under the Clinton healthcare plan these people would be penalized if they don’t pay for their healthcare. This means that most of your family members and friends will have their paychecks garnished. We all know that it doesn’t stop their if it is a goverment enforcement. There will be fines and then misdemeanors which is a criminal offense defined as less serious than a felony. Why did Ms. Clinton decide on this approach? It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure this out. Big business, big Corporation call it what you will, they want their money back and in order for Ms. Clinton to get their support in her race to presidency she is giving victory to one side (the healthcare providers) by promising to them that she will have the poeople wages garnished if they continue to give healthcare. Thus allowing her to shout the words “UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE” This is a shady tactic and makes fools out of every american that falls for trick. The Obama healthcare plan is for the people. Poor people, middle class and rich people can rest assured that there is no tricks or penalties in the Obama healthcare plan. VOTE OBAMA!!
[...] is earning his votes by campaigning in every state, not ignoring a number of them because they “don’t matter”. The upcoming primary is in Wisconsin on February 19th, but Clinton won’t be there. [...]
[...] Afterall, we can’t be trusted to figure out who we should elect to lead our country. If we sound our voices the wrong way, well then, she’ll just have to go over our heads to get that corrected. If we don’t vote for her, then our votes don’t matter. [...]
