Hillary spent Cinco de Mayo in Los Angeles today. She held a rally at East Los Angeles College where Bernie Sanders supporters
staged a protest, clashed with Hillary supporters, according to reports, and spouted some outrageous
misperceptions of
Hillary. The comments could only have come from the Sanders campaign,
and the personal attacks and lies need to stop. No one has worked harder
and longer for working and middle class families than Hillary Clinton,
and no one has more practical, well-crafted plans than she. Sanders,
his campaign, his surrogates, and his supporters should understand that
casting Hillary as the enemy only aids the other side, and now we know
who that candidate is.
I have been a Democrat for a very long time and have never seen young
people, new to the party, question the Democratic credentials of another
candidate this way. They are getting this nonsense from somewhere.
Hillary also
visited the California African American Museum where, evidently, she came the closest she has come so far to suggesting that Bernie Sanders drop out.
