Since Hillary is so distrusted by the American people, she should release her paid speeches

Hillary should release the transcripts of the paid speeches she gave for big banks and corporations.

If she did that people would probably trust her more. Right now it just seems like she has a lot to hide.

Remembering Hillary's racist joke about Indian Americans



It's supposed to be OK though because she apologized:

2004
Clinton Apologizes for Gandhi Remark
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton has apologized for joking that Mahatma Gandhi used to run a gas station here, saying it was ''a lame attempt at humor.''

I don't think Bernie Sanders would ever crack a joke like this for cheap laughs. He doesn't have a history of racially divisive politics like Hillary Clinton does.

Frankly this is something I would expect to hear from Donald Trump.

Edit: To be clear, I am NOT calling Hillary racist. Only this joke was racist. I put it in the same category like if she joked about Jewish people being bad tippers

So is the Clinton Foundation basically just a big slush fund to help corporations influence policy?

So is the Clinton Foundation basically just a big slush fund to help multinational corporations to influence government policies?

Looking at their sponsors it seems to be a bunch of multinational corporations. There seems to be a lot of money sloshing around with these multinational companies trying to influence governments and international agencies. How shady is it really?

Bill Clinton: Obama is not a change-maker, Hillary would be

America doesn't have a "president that's a change-maker," according to a clip of former president Bill Clinton that aired on MSNBC.

The footage of a Tennessee event broadcast Friday night showed the former president talking about his wife, Hillary Clinton, as being "the best change-maker I've ever known."

"She's always making something good happen," he said of President Barack Obama's former secretary of state, who is running for the Democratic nomination. "A lot of people say you don't understand it's rigged now. Yeah, it's rigged now because you don't have a president that's a change-maker."

Bill Clinton spokesman Angel Urena disputed MSBC's portrayal of the former president's words, saying the report was "inaccurate," adding that Clinton was "attributing his comment to the naysayers."

Hillary's strongest argument: Bernie disrespects Obama

I listen to Hillary Clinton people talk about the election. Every thing they say is because Bernie Sanders disrespects Obama.

First of all it's not true. But also it shows how weak the case for Hillary Clinton is when they have to stoop to that.

Her strength was supposed to be "qualifications", meaning experience on foreign affairs and security because of her supposed tons of experience.

Well now she's lost that too. Her supporting the invasion of Iraq and regime change in Syria and Libya, it all turned out to be a huge mistake. She showed how totally clueless and disconnected from reality a politician could be when she tied herself to psychopath warmaker Dr. Henry Kissinger.

So what they have left is to trash Sanders and repeat shit like he disrespects Obama. The sad thing is it will probably work.
