That a positive post about Clinton gets two responses, including an odd...I am not sure what. And the negative posts are recommended 50 times with hundreds of responses.

Which is why I am responding to this post.

Positive posts should be encouraged.

but negative posts about Clinton get more responses that positive posts about Democracy for America including candidates plans about racism in their endorsement criteria. Even when those negative comments were discredited earlier in the day by the very paper that initially published them.

I believe $15 is the lowest amount acceptable. I believe in single payer. Where is G S ? Put money into research and it will lead to....sounds like trickle down. She is better than any republic but not as good as I would like on economics.

Maybe that's why this OP isn't getting the feedback you hoped fir.

Otherwise you would not be saying this. What I was hoping for is discussion in the issues rather than attacks by the uninformed, or by those whose agenda is to attempt to build up their candidate by attacking someone else on made-up stuff.

It was too vague in my book. I never said anything but that, I didn't attack the candidate or her supporters. It was my opinion. I thought I was in a dialog.

Never mind.

I have my candidate but I am tired of the mud slinging on all sides here. My group is not above the Frey (auto correct. .funny) but after this last week I am firmly trying to be on topic. Some of us are going to be disappointed at the end of the primary. I would love it if we could all regroup and fight together afterwards. Step one is controlling my own emotions and posts.
