It’s not that it’s plagerism, it’s that he doesn’t have an independent thought.
He’s not original. His ideas are someone else’s ideas.
Of course, this distracts from Hillary trying to point out that he doesn’t have any plans either, just words.
And his “just words” riff is an insult to the people who said the words that he quotes, but then actually DID something to accomplish what they said they wanted.
Martin Luther King’s “I have a Dream” would really be “just words” if not for where he gave that speech, and what he did with his life.
CT, as you noticed, there are those who popped up for this thread. They’re right, compared to the rest, this is nothing... but a small insight.
As for character, we’ll start with another glimpse:

As for the Obamanites on this thread, tell your ummm... candidate, i’ve gone over his response, and he made a big mistake naming individuals whom I didn’t know worked for him (two in particular). Let’s just say he has more questions to answer.
In fairness:

Oh, and tell him he should find those letters written for Rezzie and others (you know, the records he didn’t keep track of, as opposed to Hill, who locked them up), not just the ones re: the power plant, but those re: the Iraq security contract. I don’t need them, I have them.
Also tell him, my cousins are Southside, they were there back when, and are still there; They know him.
Later: Plagerized passages from O’s books
Stay tuned, gotta go to work.
