    Doing something to help bring about racial unity is a strange thing for you to criticize when trying to paint him as a racial divider.

    Obama wasn't fond of his mistake either. It's why he apologized for it.

    Question when Trump mocked a reporter with disabilities did he ever apologize for it?

    Exactly. She was showing how far we have all gone as an example of how great this nation is now, although of course not perfect.

    It's amazing that that message can be lost or worse, twisted to something negative. I don't know if it's sensitivity to the word or not able to comprehend?

    Wow! Stephen Miller is really clueless. What kind of candidate would hire someone so clueless to work for their campaign?

    As was pointed out in the night he references, you can simply click on her website to see plans of how to fix problems, how she'll pay for it, and the benefit people would get from those programs.

    Trump never offers plans. As Tim Kaine said, people are just supposed to believe him. LOL

    What a blatant and utterly misleading statement. You must be a real idiot to take that statement seriously. If you actually spent the time to listen to what was said last night, and you had adequate cognition to comprehend everything, then you'd know that Trump's statement is junk.

    To show progress. Itd be kind of like if Donald Trump said...

    During my younger years I was having to eat filet mignons at the Palm and now I own my own chain of steakhouses.

    Before I expound and explain the point she was trying to make, first answer this: Did you completely watch or fully read her speech and truly understand it?

    Yeah, this convention has so much law enforcement, you'd think it was a police convention.

    Out of all the historical events mentioned throughout the convention, this is the one you have an issue with. Telling.

    Sounds like Bloomberg struck a nerve. I can just imagine a fuming Trump, raging with billionaire envy as he watched the speech. :grin::grin::grin:

    They need to keep doing this. Take him seriously as a threat behind closed doors, but treat him like the joke that he is in the public eye. The Republicans didn't do that enough until the end (hampered by the fact that Republicans aren't funny), but it clearly drives the man nuts.

    Reverend Barber's speech just took things to another level.

    I was genuinely worried about Kareem following him but his Michael Jordan zinger was hilarious.

    short answer, no.

    I am not referring so much to Michelle's speech as much as I am about it being brought up so often.

    Slavery is a diversionary term. Unless one is directly talking about it in a history context, it does no good bringing it up in modern times.

    "Hello everyone, I'm Michael Jordan & I'm here with Hillary. I said that because I know Donald Trump couldn't tell the difference."
