But we are equal. Thing is they just cause people to dig heels in deeper so what would you suggest?
Annoyingly, Eric has stated the immediate goal correctly. You have to be sure the Republicans are voted out of power. The immediate goals should include the presidency and a filibuster proof congress. A different balance in the Supreme Court will in time follow.
While I have used the language of values and cyclical history to describe the problem, Hillary is saying many of the right things in a more general language aimed at the general population. On a cyclical history thread, I feel free to use our specialized vocabulary. She is speaking to everyman.
She is welcoming diversity, pushing how a diverse multi-cultural population should be viewed as a strength. She is condemning Trump's insults and abusive behavior. She is presenting programs echoing the GI's tradition of solving problems while remembering she hasn't got the ability to tax and spend that was the norm when America was Great. Clearly, she is on the side of 'all men are created equal' rather than the side of the superior being able to act as if they are superior.
It's all very easy to say? Getting it done?
In the second debate Trump chose to praise Hillary's persistence and willingness to work. That will be required.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
