Hillary: White Privilege Like ‘Swimming In the Ocean’
Breitbart ^ | 1/11/2016

Posted on 01/12/2016 4:34:00 PM PST by Altura Ct.

Democratic presidential candidate former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton argued that she is privileged, and “it is hard, when you’re swimming in the ocean to know exactly what’s happening around you” when asked about white privilege at Iowa Brown and Black Forum broadcast on Fusion on Monday.

Hillary, in response to a question on what “white privilege” means to her, and whether she has benefited from it, said “it is hard, when you’re swimming in the ocean to know exactly what’s happening around you, so much as it is when you’re standing on the shore, perhaps watching.”

Hillary added that she went to good schools, and had a “strong, supportive families,” and “never really knew what was or wasn’t part of the privilege. I just knew that I was a lucky person.”

She further stated that she realized she was privileged when she was around 11-years-old, and she volunteered to babysit the children of migrant workers.

Hillary babysitting the “children of migrant workers?” Wow, how blessed were they.

Hillary and the Dems don’t even realize how condescending and repulsive they are.

I was screaming into the canyon
At the moment of my death.
The echo I created
Outlasted my last breath.

My voice it made an avalanche
And buried a man I never knew.
And when he died his widowed bride
Met your daddy and they made you.

I have only one thing to do and that’s
To be the wave that I am and then
Sink back into the ocean.

Whites are the only demographic with increasing death rates. That doesn’t sound like privilege.
