Hillary Clinton Suggests Jeb Bush Has Hurt Black Americans’ Cause
NY Times ^ | 7/31/15 | Michael Barbaro

Posted on 07/31/2015 7:20:17 AM PDT by jimbo123

Hillary Rodham Clinton issued a pointed broadside against Jeb Bush on Friday, suggesting his positions as a presidential candidate and his actions as governor of Florida had set back the cause of black Americans.

Mrs. Clinton mocked Mr. Bush’s favored slogan, “Right to Rise “ — his shorthand for a conservative-minded approach to creating opportunity and name of his “super PAC” — in a speech to a largely black audience at the annual convention of the National Urban League.

It was a striking jab given that Mr. Bush is scheduled to take the same stage later on Friday.

“I don’t think you can credibly say that everyone has a right to rise and say you are for phasing out Medicare. Or for repealing Obamacare. People can’t rise if they can’t afford health care,” Mrs. Clinton said to applause.

The best way to fight this is to show how badly Obama has “betrayed” the black community and then link Hillary as being just another Obama.

By no means defending The Squish here, but considering the deteriorating economic condition of the black community under the Barack Obama administration, of which Hillary was a part, it looks like the lot of blacks has no where to go from here but up.

Indeed. Jeb Bush personally dissected millions of black fetuses so their parts could be sold. And Queen Hillary would NEVER approve of something so ghastly.

The only low hanging fruit Jeb Bush has is marble sized testicles.

Well, if you are a prog/commie all you have to do is stop at a Chipotle and all the commie media will wax how symbolic it is and how you stand with the Latinos.
Well, that is if you don’t completely screw it up.
Even then the media will cover for you or do their best to sweep it under the rug.
Democrats are so symbolic while non-playing republicans are so typical.

Hows those rising ObamaCare premiums working out for the hordes of idiots voting for liars like Hellary?

What can be worse than enslavement by government programs and benefits based their thinking that colored folks are incapable of providing for themselves?

IMO, anything this person says to anyone became irrelevant many years ago, but especially the night four patriots died in Benghazi because of her inaction and then the lies she told their families.
