The attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, which thankfully left him with only a small wound to his ear, horrified me and reminded me of two assassinations that changed my life in 1968 when I was only eight.
I was shocked when my hero, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., was shot dead in Memphis in April. Crying myself to sleep and praying for his family, I promised myself I would devote my life to the Civil Rights Movement and to making America a more just and equitable society for everyone.
Nothing I have done can compare with King’s historic achievements, but I have tried to do my small part to follow in his footsteps.
Just weeks after the King assassination, I was shocked again when another hero, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy (D-N.Y.) was gunned down in Los Angeles on the night he won the California Democratic presidential primary in June.
I was a college student in my final year at LSU when a gunman seriously wounded President Ronald Reagan in an assassination attempt in 1981. There’s no doubt these events shaped my early interest in American politics.

She is so full of nonsense.
"We must never rile up citizens to take to the streets to commit mayhem of any kind as former President Trump did with his fervent supporters on Jan. 6, 2021, by sending them marching to the U.S. Capitol, where they staged a deadly riot in an unprecedented effort to overturn his reelection defeat." - Donna Brazille
George Floyd "mostly peaceful protests"?, Kenosha Wisconsin?, January 20, 2017?, mobs at the Supreme Court when the Dobbs decision was leaked?, CHAZ?, Occupy Wall Street?, "Hands up don't shoot?"
Who, pray tell, riled up all that mayhem Donna?
The why did you cheat and feed questions to your candidate ?!?
“Which negates the title of the article.”
Yes. So there you have it. I can’t even believe she’s still around. But I do see some of the old Clinton gang pop up every once in a while — James Carville, Robert Reichchchch, etc.

Oh Dear Lord. This corrupt woman (remember the Hillary debate incident) is as big a LIAR and as delusional as the Demented Old Perv. I have NO respect for her or anything she has to say.
Donna, a Clintonista, your playbook has ALWAYS been to demonize your opponents.
This piece is nothing but a veiled attack on Trump.
But, Donna, you had no problem overseeing the demise of Seth Rich?
"I recognize that the vote mite by stacked against one pahty or the udder. Da House da evidence is convincin it's compellin'. And yes the Clinton Trial was differnt, Mark, I realize what de Democrats did in 1999 but at the end of the day the White House cooperated ..." -- Donna Brazile"If we had taken politics out of it we wouldn't be here today. But the Democrats voted for trial without witnesses in 1999."- Mark
"Dey was deposed. Da hold was placed on da fund. Dat was .. dat was." - Donna

NYT: "THE 2000 ELECTIONS: CHANGING CIRCUMSTANCES; How Gore Stopped Short On His Way to Concede""What Mr. Whouley had to say, the aide, Michael B. Feldman, recalled, was that the Florida secretary of state's Web page had winnowed Mr. Bush's advantage of 50,000 votes to 6,000, with precincts still to tally.That changed everything. About a half-hour later, at 2:30 a.m. Central time, Mr. Gore placed his second call of the evening to Mr. Bush.
[ Ed note: GUESS WHO? -> ] Donna Brazile, Mr. Gore's campaign manager, sent the vice president a message at 1:20 a.m. Central time on his Blackberry, an instant messaging pager: ''Never surrender. It's not over yet.''
I DO NOT CARE WHAT COLOR YOU ARE:
NO 8 YEAR OLD LITTLE GIRL HAS A HERO....
HELLO KITTY OR BARBIE are as far as she can think.
Those that enable an invasion of my country are enemies.
Just co-incidences, of course. /sarc
When your political opponents use lawfare, cheat, lie & steal, then they are my certain enemies.
I just realized that everything in American history was all about Donna Brazile. Who knew?
So funny. At only the age of eight, she cried herself to sleep and prayed for the families of her two slain heroes: the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. and Senator Robert F. Kennedy (D-N.Y. In case you missed it the first time).
She and Brandon should hang out and swap war stories about their early, early days as civil rights crusaders.
