Translation:

People who REGISTERED to vote grew faster in higher numbers than those who actually voted-—and this includes the illegals.

Why are so many people wearing white clothes?

Those were Hillary's emergency medical staff.

Your experience reminds me Jack Kemp. Mr Kemp went into the inner cities - heck, he campaigned in Harlem! - and spoke of the opportunity Supply Side offered everyone and the destruction ensuing from Democrat policies. I thought he was the Real Deal when it came to Republicans presenting a vision for, inter alia , blacks. I thought the world got a little darker when he died.

After Kemp's VP run in 1996 and until Trump came along, I can't say I saw a Republican national figure (with the possible exception of Ben Carson) who seemed to deeply care about unwinding the carnage Democrat policies unleashed on the inner cities. Indeed, I think LOTS of black "leaders" started to quake in their boots when Trump asked "What do you have to lose?"

I have experienced people confiding in me their true, conservative beliefs while posturing otherwise, to avoid confrontation. All of that input drove me to post as I did. That said, I don't have the actual boots-on-the-ground canvassing experience you have. I am humbled by your activity. I cannot hold a candle to what you've done.

For the first time in their adult lives they were proud to vote for a BHO. Too busy to vote for HRC. /s

Hillary was contemptuous of blacks... she saw them as a darker version of 'deplorables'... and 'deplorables' as subhuman.
