(10,952 posts)opposite of Trump's clusterf**k. I would love her to picke a solid VP candidate from one of the groups that the Rethugs are so easy to disenfranchise.
I would love to see a speech focused on diversity in this country and what people from different ethnic, racial, religious, etc. backgrounds have accomplished and what the world would be without some of their discoveries and inventions. We need to get the disenfranchised out to vote for Hillary so let them know that they have a seat at the table so to speak. The DNC should be all about why they should come out and vote Democratic in November not a hate fest for the other side.
There are surrogates that can use the volumes of material so nicely provided by the rethugs to go after Trump after the convention or in interviews with the MSM during it. Hillary needs to stay above it all because she can truly look Presidential.
However, it might be funny if they put together a short video that really hilights the absurdity of Trump and his cult. Humor can be used to make a point without overkill. That could be done early on then they can move onto serious stuff. An Andrew Shepard (American President) style speech in the video could prove useful. You mock Trump and then tell the American people something along the lines of "We live in serious times and we need a President that is capable of staying focused on the task at hand to look out for this country and the American people.
