Barack Obama is Never Going to Say What Hilary Just Said
Hillary spoke the three words that Barack Obama never will, "Black lives matter."
Obama's entire professional life has been about avoiding anything that would make him to appear to be an "angry black man", so we won't here this from him:
Clinton also addressed the recent protests that have erupted across the US and drew links between violence at home and abroad.Props to Hillary for saying those three words, and shame on Obama for not saying those three words.
She declared: “Yes, black lives matter,” a mantra of demonstrators around the country who have been protesting about grand jury decisions not to indict white police officers involved in the deaths of unarmed black men in Ferguson, Missouri, and in New York.
She wondered what Kennedy would say about “the thousands of Americans marching in our streets demanding justice for all” and “the mothers who’ve lost their sons”.
“What would he say to all those who have lost trust in our government and our other intuitions, who shudder at images of excessive force, who read reports about torture done in the name of our country, who see too many representatives in Washington quick to protect a big bank from regulation but slow to take action to help working families facing ever greater pressure?” Clinton said.
