sarcasm to let me know my one concern i brought up was irrelevant and in need of being dismissed.

so the whatever does apply. that was your intent with post one. why waste the time to further post.

he has spoken about plan parenthood. and he has done well. when people made him aware that he ought to take an interest in it, because women need a president that will be a voice for us.

it is no longer about just voting one way or another with what is put out in front of him.

it will be his focus on his agenda. blacks and women want him to focus on our issues, along with economic equality.

merely sitting at the table, a perspective president actually focusing on us.

not only white middle class, upper middle class and men. republican, libertarian, independent and democratic.

but the actual democratic base. he needs to talk to all of us, across the nation, consistently, so we know he has our back.
