Hillary Clinton To Voter: 'Why Don't You Go Run for Something, Then?'

[timosman]

Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton responds to a young woman in Minnesota who appears to challenge Clinton on whether she has a plan on addressing diversity of elected officials.

and....?

Great answer by Hillary for the first time ever. She is absolutely right. If you believe that your candidates don't have the answers, then do something about it. If you don't like something then change it.

Isn't this condescending?

No. It's the truth. People are quick to offer criticism to candidates, without doing anything to offer something better. Go run for office. Hillary is by nature a crass person. So it came off bitchy, but she's right. My opinion anyway. Whatever little that is worth.

Thanks for posting this. Schillary just loves black people, right? She and her husband are responsible for 60% of blacks serving prison sentences with their "three strikes you're out" law... as one of her top contributors to the Clinton Foundation, are the private owned "pay to play" prisons. I mean these Clintons are the scum of the earth, and still preying on low educated black people thinking they are the salvation. Even Bill Clinton's black bastard child is still kept under raps.

Don't mean to sound hostile, but I have worked since I was 17 years old (volunteer basis), in civil rights matters. And this bitch capturing the black vote, just pisses me off, down one side and the other. These maggots ... the Clinton's, capturing the black vote, just blows my mind.

Voter answers Hillary. "Because unlike Bubba and you, I'm not a sociopath."

Peter Schiff was talking about this a few days ago (starts at 36:12):

Isn't this condescending?

Not really, it's the same as when women's studies majors complain about the lack of women in STEM fields.... why the fuck didn't you major in a STEM field??

This is why Bernie should stop talking about taking everyone's money and simply tell his story: I'm Jewish. Growing up in Brooklyn, I was called this, wasn't allowed to go there, and had to do this. When I got to the University of Chicago, I saw blacks being treated that same way and I was determined to speak up. I was arrested for speaking up. I am committed to civil rights, and I will make sure everyone has a chance to grow up outside the prison of racisim and outside of prison walls." It would be a winning message--especially if he brought it up in a debate.

I've actually wondered why he hasn't yet. Granted, his positions still suck, but you'd think he'd be talking all about this, as it's one of Hillary's weaker points. Bernie at least comes across as much more personable than Hillary, and the fact that she's getting minority votes just boggles my mind.
