Just heard from my daughter in Georgia (Duluth)

She is an avid HRC supporter but she said she was surprised by the number of Bernie supporters at her polling place.
Just getting a little worried about that.

Asked my granddaughter how she felt about the term "super predator?"

I let her listen to the audio of Hillary's comments that included those word and "bring them to heel."

She said she really didn't know what to think about it except she knows that she is not a criminal who robbed and attacked people and she would never be a gang member...so the term doesn't even apply to her.

What are the voters so upset about the economy. There is a huge disconnect or they just refuse to

see anything positive about the Obama administrational

Consumer confidence it up and auto sales soaring.

Meanwhile some really important news is being made.

Thank you Mr. President (and Hillary Clinton and John Kerry). Moving toward better relations with mutual interests. The Iranian President is a man of hope and foresight.

Funny how after months upon months of promoting Trump at the expense of every other GOP

candidate, Mika and Joe are upset with the GOP establishment for allowing it to happen.

Sure they warned that Tump could win so they made sure of that by having on in person or by phone almost every day!

Early Sanders' writings. But he has "evolved."

"Sanders' various opinions put forth in his writings at the time are best encapsulated in a 1969 column called "The Revolution is Life Versus Death," a compilation of his musings against war and traditional education, and in favor of sexual freedom.

"The revolution comes when two strangers smile at each other, when a father refuses to send his child to school because schools destroy children, when a commune is started and people begin to trust each other, when a young man refuses to go to war and when a girl pushes aside all that her mother has 'taught' her and accepts her boyfriends (sic) love," Sanders asserts.

That same year, in "Cancer, Disease and Society," Sanders opined with some obvious Freudian influence (he studied psychology at Brooklyn College) during the Vietnam era's free love movement, giving credence to a theory that a lack of orgasms and enjoyment of sex causes cervical and other female cancers.

Citing now-debunked studies from the 1950s, he even makes a case for why underage sex can be healthy."

Hillary should begin to point out her work getting Iran to the negotiating table and the recent

news about the staunch conservatives facing very strong opposition from a united front of reformers.

This isn't talked about at all in the media because it means Obama gets credit for making a pretty good deal with Iran. But be certain the least little thing that the Iranian government does or says that goes against the US or Israel will be reported all over the media.
