not the usual politician rambling or hedging or trying to appease all sides.

just hey, government needs to not be corrupt.

hey, government needs to work for all of us, not just a select few.


so often i hear her and just say "yes! why can't more politicians just come out and say it like that?"

She knows the fear of not knowing where you are going to get the money to put food in front of your kids at mealtime.

She knows the fear of living in a shithole flat run managed by an abusive overseer.

She knows the fear of those sleek black cars with lights on the top and bigotry driving.

She knows yet she doesn't submit.

She knows and uses that power to help others.




(Note- not saying that is her direct experience, but she understands with a knowledge from deep in her soul.)

She stands for the right things and she kicks ass.

Edit to add I also love that she makes right wingers head absolutely explode like no-one I've seen save perhaps HRC and Nancy. Its a nice bonus feature!
