I do have a dog in this fight

My girlfriend of 3 years is a Dreamer, she was brought here by her parents when she was 6 years old....when Trump came out and said he would build a wall and create a deportation force that would go door to door looking for immigrants, that's the first time a politician has made me fear that my family would be broken up.

She has a 7 year old sister that was thankfully born here so she's a US citizen, however even she tells me that she doesn't want Trump to win because she doesn't want to go back to Mexico.

So when I read about Sanders supporters and how they won't vote because Hillary gave speeches to wall Street it tells me a lot about how privileged these people are...

reform within her first 100 days. She's made it her priority to ensure families are not broken up, and has the bill ready to go.

Hang in there and make sure you vote for Hillary Clinton. I, and my group of 41, sure will!
