[book_worm]

Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (D-Md.) endorsed Hillary Clinton on Sunday, after months of staying neutral in the presidential contest because of his post as the ranking Democrat on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

“Families in Baltimore who are hurting right now need more than the promise of a political revolution,” Cummings wrote in an op-ed submitted to The Washington Post.

He added that Clinton “not only understands the challenges facing Baltimore and other cities, she’s laid out a clear and detailed agenda that meets those challenges head-on.”

With Cummings’s endorsement, every Democratic member of Maryland’s congressional delegation has backed Clinton before the April 26 primary.

The Bernie folks may not like it, but she won another delegate today.

5. He better brace himself.

I imagine he's going to get the same treatment as John Lewis and James Clyburn.

9. yeah, he's going to be harassed like all the other strong African American leaders who have

endorsed Hillary over BS.

But, they can take it .. they don't whine like a certain candidate is on TV about what Hillary said about him .. which isn't even true.

These leaders deal in truth that why they're for Hillary.

7. Rep Cummings packs a punch, thanks for his endorsement, he is right, we need more than a talk of a

Revolution, especially when I have not heard one clue what the next step would be taken.
