Did anyone catch Hillary at the National Urban League Conference?

I saw some of it on MSNBC this morning and she gave an impassioned speech on the full spectrum of racial issues. They are repeating parts of it through the morning. Apparently, Bernie was there as well but they didn't play any video. It was reported, by Joy Reid, that he gave his usual talk on income inequality but did say that black lives matter.

p.s. I just watched Jeb Bush take credit for the "economic boom" in Florida that was the result of the housing bubble during his reign as governor and false kingmaker. He neglected to mention that the minute he left office, the bubble burst and Florida's recession ended up being twice as bad as the rest of the country!

I thought it was well done. Karen Finney is taking a major role in the campaign doing outreach.
I adore Joy Reid. She's brilliant

Nonsense message. She was strong on her statements.

No one except Foxdroids and Internet Berniebots care about emails anyway.
