I belive a mix of the two bravenak Feb 2016 #129

Do you think everything in both the first and second accounts was true? noamnety Feb 2016 #147

I heard the comments in one of the videos better than the first one bravenak Feb 2016 #148

And she didn't misspeak. Her account is accurate. yardwork Feb 2016 #82

Swear to God, its true bravenak Feb 2016 #18

No, you're just supposed to acknowledge that he's a person who has been sensitive to the struggles Chakab Feb 2016 #19

I think most people will agree that he has been "sensitive" to these struggles EffieBlack Feb 2016 #134

Honestly, I find posts like this to be baffling. How are claims that may be inaccurate as to the Chakab Feb 2016 #154

DU rec...nt SidDithers Feb 2016 #21

She got paid by Clinton ($100,000 in 2010 at minimum), and then lied for her. HooptieWagon Feb 2016 #26

Very rude bravenak Feb 2016 #27

And yet also true...hmmm hoosierlib Feb 2016 #43

Our lives matter more than whatever bravenak Feb 2016 #50

Nothing matters more than... basselope Feb 2016 #56

WTF???????? rbrnmw Feb 2016 #60

What is? That people are too blinded by politics to see hypocrisy and they are being used? hoosierlib Feb 2016 #62

Are you fu_king serious with this? brush Feb 2016 #51

No, *she* didn't get paid. A contribution to her very worthy foundation was made. PeaceNikki Feb 2016 #54

I know who you are, you have been giving the Clinton Global Initiative hunders of thousands of $$$ hoosierlib Feb 2016 #28

Who would that be? Clinton sycophants? hoosierlib Feb 2016 #42

Dolores Huerta quote: "Bernie Sanders supporters don't know who I am." R B Garr Feb 2016 #49

Lol...keep feeding the meme and enjoy the inevitable... hoosierlib Feb 2016 #53

Ooh, yes, I'll stick with the core constituents of the Democratic party, not some R B Garr Feb 2016 #58

Wow! mcar Feb 2016 #45

She's spent decades helping people. Your reply shows your pure ignorance of her accomplishments. PeaceNikki Feb 2016 #61

Great, she helped people and now she is spreading lies along with America Ferraro hoosierlib Feb 2016 #67

Hell yeah, she "helped people". She's basically the Latina MLK PeaceNikki Feb 2016 #71

+1 bravenak Feb 2016 #75

More Latino MLK than Caesar Chavez? hoosierlib Feb 2016 #76

As. She worked with him. Had four kids with his brother. PeaceNikki Feb 2016 #86

Doesn't change anything...she is still intentionally spreading lies in order to create outrage... hoosierlib Feb 2016 #91

The outrage should be the way she was and is being treated. PeaceNikki Feb 2016 #96

She's a Clinton supporter, operative and donot... hoosierlib Feb 2016 #98

If you feel justified in reducing her to that, it shows what an awful set of priorities you have. PeaceNikki Feb 2016 #112

Thankfully they give a shit what I say...and neither should you... hoosierlib Feb 2016 #115

"Misspeaking" noamnety Feb 2016 #109

I don't think she did. HassleCat Feb 2016 #160

That's not what she said. basselope Feb 2016 #162
