I want to know how a candidate I have never donated to, or volunteered for
and never signed up for anything remotely related to her has gotten her hands on my home address? I don't want her correspondence. I REALLY want to know how she got my address?
She has the intestinal fortitude to ask me for money. I've been told to fuck off, now you're begging me for money. No chance in hell.

56. If the solicitation has a prepaid envelope, then...
by all means send the request back with a well thought out response as to why hell won't be freezing over soon. This helps in two ways because the campaign pays for the return postage (cheap revenge for unwanted mail spam) and it helps to keep the post office functioning.
(As they used to say back in the '60s: when the universe hands you lemons, make lemonade. They said a lot of other things back then. Most of them are best forgotten...) |

95. or if you have donated to any major candidate
or to the DNC, etc. You are much more likely to get a request for money if you are a known donor than you are if you are a known voter. DNC sends me surveys too, but I never get around to sending them back. I kinda doubt if they want the survey as much as they want the check. They say "send $10 to cover the cost of processing the survey" as a hook.

13. Jesus, you really hate her, dont you. Can you tell me when this started, seriously, I am curious
Did it start recently during this election season or earlier?
Can you trace much of your attitude to random, general things you have hears on and off over the years in the media? Do you hate mail from Jiffy Lube or Target the same way? I dont mean to make light of this, I truly cant understand it. I am more liberal than any ten of most here, support Bernie, always have, but would vote for Hillary in a heartbeat if I have to for obvious reasons. I was around, aware and paying attention to everything the Clinton's did in their 8 yrs in the WH, am and was aware of all the sexual misconduct accusations against Bill, I believe most of them, and I find his and her politics to be far to much to the right for my liking. Yet, I dont dislike either of them so much that I would elect a fascist like Trump or Cruz, not in a million years. |

I have no hate for either of them.
the hate of some Bernie supporters is difficult to fathom and I think hints at something a lot darker. I suppose they'd be happier with a trump presidency so they can complain about the senate votes that allowed him to get into a manufactured war. I'm truly disgusted. |

71. So McGovern was nominated as a real "anti-war" candidate
And Nixon pulled the rug out from under him by shutting down almost all the war before the election. In November 1972, there were only 16,099 servicemen left in Vietnam (I was one of them)..Nobody got very charged up about it and the peace negotiations were very close to being finalized. Without any traction from an antiwar sentiment, McGovern lost to Nixon 49-2.

105. The anti-war sentiment was the reason LBJ pulled out of the primaries and began negotiations.
Nixon was stuck with a losing had and began the pullouts. He did it very slowly and on his timetable, not the demonstrators time table. He was hoping (slim hope) that Vietnamization would work and that South Vietnam could hold the fort after we left. He was trying to buy time to build up the Vietnamese. You can see that by the size (and location) of the various incremental withdrawals. The antiwar demonstrators were an annoyance and a distraction to Nixon, but never forced his hand. As he said in 1968, he had a plan to get out of Vietnam and he did it.

40. I can't speak for the posited, but I can speak for myself:
First: I think she's where she is due to name recognition mainly and a lot of political maneuvering. She came back in with a fool proof winning plan (even if that meant states and super Pacs played dirty tricks and illegal shit).
Second: we have had President Obama. Because he's a Dem, he's gotten away with so much more than a Reoublican ever could... Shoot he passed their health insurance bill. He's used bombs indiscriminently. And he tells us his biggest mistake is Libya (which we all hear is Clinton's baby). She's bought and sold a hundred ways to Sunday and she's really not all that Democratic... She even comes to social issues or the $15/hr at the last second. Fracking Queen of the world, while we are looking at another record setting temperature year. We need a leader desperately and she isn't it by far. So do you burn it down and say, F-you Anerica? And be young enough to pick up the pieces after OR do you allow more and more of a oligarchy to run the country? And allow it because it's a Dem? It's been awful hard to really bring light to complaints of Obama because of his historic presidency and the wing nuts making birthed issues. We will get the same shit all over again with her. |

58. Oh yea, that's exactly what I said.
In the 10 plus years I've been here, I've never heard that. That never gets trotted out ever. That isn't going to be done again this election at all.
So the DNC and Hillary have no skin in this game? It's all the Sanders' supporters fault? You should have been here the last midterms. The DNC decided they needed Republican votes and put up a bunch of Republican friendly Democrats for open seats. They all lost. Progressive leftist bills made a great win however. So guess who's fault it was for none of the Democrats getting elected. The left base, apparently they didn't vote some say. Don't how they could have ever come to that conclusion. I know I like to shoot myself in the foot as often as possible. But wait a minute I did vote and have all my life "D" but that doesn't matter at all does it. Leftists Progressives got the blame. Could it have possibly been the DNC's fault? Nooooooooooooooooo, never, strike the thought immediately! The Thirdway have been running the show since before Bill Clinton and now Republicans have both houses of congress. You're really going to blame the left base for that? Not the DNC cause you know, they're supposed to be running the show. When'd you sign up 2016? So you know it all huh. You were here the first time Hillary tried this huh. You know all about it.

14. At least the Clinton that is bugging you has never destroyed your life. A close friend
Had her life ruined when Bill Clinton and Janet Reno signed off on paperwork regarding the med marijuana issue.
Lynnette Shaw was forced out of her chosen profession of managing Med Marijuana clinics, and the end result was that her Social Security funds were stripped away from her Social Security account as well. This has never happened before to any American citizen - not even people who were drug king pins! Last year, a judge finally absolved Shaw of any claims of the Federal Government against her. But the last few years have been very difficult. With any luck she will not lose her house this week, but saving it will require a miracle. |

We worked off massive printouts of registered voters that included name, address, phone number, and PARTY.
A lot of the Bernie people here seem to not understand how party politics actually works. At all. Registration of voters; registering them on time; registering them in the candidate's party so they can vote for the candidate... all such a mystery. Those records Bernie's staff "accidentally" looked at -- and copied -- were painstakingly amassed over decades of dedicated work by Democrats. Now is the season in which all that info gets used. |

111. Worse, I believe it was proprietary info
that the Clinton campaign itself had amassed through hours and hours of voter contact and outreach, most of it done by volunteers.
I think both candidates had access to the basic VAN and voter lists, but the Clinton campaign had worked to shade that info, who was a strong supporter, who was on the fence and who was strong Sanders, so they knew how to structure their outreach. And the Sanders campaign straight-up stole it. And most of what they stole was VOLUNTEERS time. Anyone who ever did the work of campaign ID and GOTV would know what a violation that was. |

I'm a registered Democrat in a heavily Democratic part of a blue city in a fairly blue state. I realized they'd gotten a mailing list from National Financial Services, the outfit that sends me all the crap relating to my dad's stocks.
Admen have pretty much taken over the political process, from providing focus groups of morons to vet speeches and oratory style to buying mail lists from corporations they think will target voting blocs they think they can win. Everything we see and hear from most candidates has been packaged by admen and has been for decades. |

42. Are you hoping other people are clueless, and you can whip them up about this?
Don't you remember that whole deal last fall when the Bernie people broke into Hillary's voter database?
The reason that could happen is that they both rent the DNC's database of every Democrat who has EVER donated to ANYONE. In that system, they also kept the additional information they had collected themselves. Bernie's software guy broke into Hillary's proprietary info and looked around. But that's when we all learned that they both rent and have full access to the basic DNC database containing name and contact info for anyone who has ever donated to, volunteered for, or registered as a member of the Democratic party. |

it was Ready for Hillary and now it's her campaign.

158. I got lots of stuff from Ready for Hillary, which I returned complaining about fracking and TPP
Haven't gotten anything from the campaign itself by snail mail. Emails? Sure, but I'm a member of my local Democratic Party organization.

97. I send political robo-calls directly to the auto-reject list
I just discovered you could do this in Android. So unwanted phone calls go right to the list. I never answer phone numbers I don't recognize anyway. But now they are not answered at all.
I have not received any campaign junk mail this time. I would imagine it will start soon. I don't donate to political campaigns at all. |

106. Perhaps the same way Sanders campaign got their hands on my home address and email address.
I thought his campaign team may have gotten information from the data base they downloaded.

116. Sanders campaign called my husband, too.
He is very definitely not a supporter.
He is a white man, registered Dem and a primary voter living in a zip code that would indicate that statistically, he might be a supporter. So they gave it a shot ![]() |

114. The only campaign contacting me is the Sanders campaign
I am bombarded daily with 4-5 e-mails from his campaign. And he always needs money. $2.70 or $27.00.
The address that it goes to is one I have only ever given out to a single entity - Democratic Underground. |

then that's probably how they got your address.

124. You're on a list.
Think I do donate anything to Vicky Hartzler or Roy Blunt? Hell no but I still get mail all the time. You vote, you register to vote, you live in certain districts,etc-you get mailers. It's not a conspiracy. Don't turn it into one.

125. I've gotten a few of those
and where it has space for my comments - I let them have it. Then I happily mail it back - without that stamp that helps them "save much needed funds." They know who they can ask for a stamp.

131. I thought it was Sanders people who supposedly peeked at Clinton's database.
Yet I get zero reg. mails from Bernie and regular junk mail from Camp Clinton.
To quote Ricky Ricardo.... "I got a sinkin' fillin' ".... someone's not telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. |

150. Have been voting every election for decades. This is the first time I've gotten a beg letter from a
Presidential candidate I didn't first donate to or volunteer for. I don't particularly care if you're bothered by my question. Candidates that go around saying they don't need voters shouldn't be stupid enough to turn around and beg them for money. It's fucking ridiculous.

153. Have you ever donated to any candidate?
If you have, those lists are bought and sold. Don't ever get into media. This year at one point I was getting emails from 15 presidential candidates...now that is fun...real fun

162. First step of politics: learn about politics
I've never seen so many posts on DU and elsewhere on the Interwebs by people who have little to no knowledge of how the political process actually works.
Everything I've seen about grand conspiracies, cheating, voter suppression shows just how uneducated people are about how out current political process works. My point being is this: if you don't know how it really works, how do you expect to change it? |

hence my comment but since I've been blocked for speaking the truth, you won't see this.

Simultaneously begging them for money. It's a false equivalence.
