EXCLUSIVE: Campaign staff recruited and DROVE 'everyday' Iowans to Hillary's first campaign stop
The Daily Mail ^ | April 15, 2015 | David Martsoko

Hillary Clinton's astroturf candidacy is in full swing in Iowa.

Her Tuesday morning visit to a coffee shop in LeClaire, Iowa was staged from beginning to end, according to Austin Bird, one of the men pictured sitting at the table with Mrs. Clinton.

Bird told Daily Mail Online that campaign staffer Troy Price called and asked him and two other young people to meet him Tuesday morning at a restaurant in Davenport, a nearby city.

Price then drove them to the coffee house to meet Clinton after vetting them for about a half-hour.

The three got the lion's share of Mrs. Clinton's time and participated in what breathless news reports described as a 'roundtable'– the first of many in her brief Iowa campaign swing.

Bird himself is a frequent participant in Iowa Democratic Party events. He interned with President Obama's 2012 presidential re-election campaign, and was tapped to chauffeur Vice President Joe Biden in October 2014 when he visited Davenport.

'What happened is, we were just asked to be there by Troy,' Bird said Wednesday in a phone interview.

She’s off to a bad start-—she should be giving large scale talks to large groups—yeah she will have hecklers but dealing with them proves her wit. These well planned Photo-ops will win her few votes and confirm that shes not one of the masses but a queen in the making. She better change things or start writing her drop out speach.

If the left controls the debates, like they have in the past, they will avoid any hard questions about the many Clinton scandals. Hopefully a tough conservative will get the nomination and they will insist on at least one conservative moderator.

Notice again that it’s the British Daily Mail that covers the story and not the US MSM who are Rat lapdogs. It took Drudge to highlight it on his webpage. Since the campaign can’t stop the Brits, they no doubt are looking for a way to shut up Drudge.

All of the “everyday Americans” that Hillary just happens to meet along the way will be carefully screened and hand picked. She doesn’t want risk having a “Joe the Plumber” encounter with anyone.

I think Nancy Pelosi referred to this as Astro Turf when she accused the TEA party of fake outrage.

Don't you just love it? The Iowans aren't flocking to her.

Can you imagine her as president forcing the peons to worship her hindness?

One of her advisors said that she needs to appear more humble.

Yeah, like that will ever happen.

Notice the silence from Pelousi. First disarray in the electorate she’s ever seen, well outside Zero v. Thighness, which she arbitrated at her house on that one-hour secret meeting.

Hand picked audiences all the way so the proper questions are asked and no one pickets.

THE FIXER: Bird said Troy Prince (pictured), who was executive director of the Iowa Democratic Party until he left last week ago to help Clinton's statewide political effort, recruited him and others to attend the 'spontaneous' coffee meeting.

I am sick and tired of people who say that if you deceive and cheat in this upcoming election or any election that somehow you’re not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Democrats and we have a right to deceive and cheat ANY election!

That white flag on the left fender appears to be an official one. Since she no longer holds an office why is she flying it? Or is it like Obama's Office of the President Elect seal?

The picture in the Daily Mail has him wearing the same tie for the Hillary meeting. Either his favorite or his only one.
