used by Hillary really hard. People need to know that State houses (governors) pull the purse strings for cities and towns in their states. Take Kansas for example. The failures have been that when blacks are elected to mayoral posts and Counsel posts the money is usually cut by those above (Ferguson example).

The OP was stating that Sharpton spoke about the real reason which was Republican governors at the State level not giving them funding. GEEZ!
