63 Year old woman gets really ANGRY at Hillary..powerful stuff

The entire 7 minute clip is worth watching and she and the other guest talk mildly but she really is on fire starting 3:58 minutes...

Which is great since I was thinking based on the earlier milder stuff, "we can't just politely frame it as Bernie is better for women..we have to tell the truth that Hillary has been brutal to women" but before I could finish that thought...well...just watch what happens at 3:58

Up to that point was the older woman giving her good, polite intro and a woman in her 20s giving her take with more good solid points, but then all hell breaks lose about 4 minutes in..watch out, Hillary..more and more women are on to you! Even the host was like: wow..

I am another one of those Boomer women who worked McJobs and raised 4 kids ~ as well as being an activist for low income families for over 30 years.

Believe me we had our noses rubbed into HRC's poo every times she sang praises for Welfare DEFormed ~ which she did loud and proud. And she and her crew (including sadly NOW), basically ignored us ~ which I took pride in that callous scorn. Because it is one of the methods that indicates you are on the path to telling the Truth some may not like to see that Gandhi spoke about when he gave the 4 stages of protest. So I knew her day was comin' and believe me it has come!

The ironically named "Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunities Act has been one of the most damaging laws that were ever passed as they were using low income women (and low wage workers) as their "canaries in the mine" for what was to come later for the middle class. Any woman who allows themselves to be used as poster children for her so-called "feminist" cause are simply living a damn lie.

I know it. I saw it. I can tell you all about it! And I have been telling anyone who would listen for 2 damn decades she did not give a flying s**t about women ~ unless she could use them for her own advantage. Ask the low wage and poor women in her own district, who I have been in contact and working with for those decades, just how much HRC "cares" for them. Here is what they will show you:

This is where the rubber meets the road, these women, especially the elderly woman are spot on...Hillary does not support women, if she did she would realize that many, many women are paid less than men for the same work, and that her 12 dollars and change is not enough to raise a family which many women have to do alone, without support. Hooray for the truth, I love hearing it.

Being old is something to be proud of. We survived and even thrived.

Finally, I don't think pretending we're something we're not is respectful. Being old is not something to be ashamed of.

That clip was simply outstanding. People need to stand up and speak their truth just like that older woman did. Hillary is out for herself. Period. Bernie is the only one to come along for a very long time now who is actually on the side of ALL the people, women included. This old war horse (mule) still has a lot of fight left, and I'm sure I'm not alone. And I love the millennials! Such spirit! You kids just rock!

Bernie is the best for the rights of women and children.

Just being a woman does not qualify Hillary on women's and children's issues.

Bernie is stronger. $15 per hour for women. You can't raise a child and live on $12 per hour. That $3 per hour in a 40 hour week is $120 per week. That's a lot of groceries.

Another older woman who feels the Bern!

Thanks ladies.

25. Excellet illustration. Or we can look at it per year
Sat Mar 5, 2016, 12:39 AM
Mar 2016

40 hours per week, let's say 50 weeks a year to be simple, 2,000 hours per year

On a yearly basis, $12/hour is just 24,000 to live on for the whole family...housing food, healthcare, education...before one counts sales taxes and other taxes..! That is not the dignified living Americans deserve!

$15 per hour doesn't sound much more but it's $30,000 per year ....not luxury, given all the above expenses and taxes, especially not for a family..but you have some breathing room..that's Bernie fighting for ALL Americans!

Per month it would be 2,000 before taxes versus 2,500...not luxury but some breathing space again...I like your weekly and the annual ways maybe as best two ways to illustrate though..thanks again

59. The minimum wage issue is about the starting point of negotiation.
Sat Mar 5, 2016, 10:55 PM
Mar 2016

Of course you start with $15, not $12 ...and Hillary knows that. If she and her oligarchy buddies manage to agree to $12 an hour minimum wage they will have it begin in 2020 and not now when it's needed the most. Start at $15 and resist lowering it but give in to an immediate $12 graduating to $15 by 2020.

May the hell fire they find themselves in be stoked with the money they robbed from everyone else.

The above video mentions their FB but in another video by this same show by Benjamin Dixon,
"Do the Facts Even Matter Anymore to Hillary Supporters?" they mention they also have a website:

http://www.women4bernie.us/

Has lots of graphics anyone can take to show support, and links and info on the issues..I'm still exploring the website but lots there

By the way the best youtube channels I've found for Bernie info by vloggers are Debbie' channel The Sane Progressive, the Benjamin Dixon Show, and recently I found and like Tim Black.

I wasn't looking for "diverse" just strong powerful informative educational..and they just happen to be two African American men and a white woman (and one of the regular co-hosts with Benjamin Dixon is a black woman)...doing a really suberb job spreading the truth and exposing lies, and keeping folks feeling the bern...

Remind me again why Bernie is supposedly mostly for "older white men" only, MSM keeps suggestion? :-

1. Debbie's fantastic channel The Sane Progressive: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxpfmCp2Z9VPTO7eWV6ebzQ

2. The Benjamin Dixon Show tons of material and guests: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMCioqY4zblWt7Uw0E0VTGA/videos
(a recent vid I haven't yet watched just uploaded is "Women for Bernie on Campaigning Against Hillary - Interview Part 2"

3. Tim Black show: https://www.youtube.com/user/TimsTakeLive

Subscribe, watch, get informed and energized...and share most of all with friends, family, people where you work and your community

and very importantly:

- hillary does not revere our home - this planet - our mother earth nor does she respect the living things upon her.
what kind of future for our next generations on a toxic planet? hillary is beholden to the corporations that continue to unconscionably exploit the land and waters - resulting in irreparable and irreversible devastation. she supports fracking!!! she supports pipelines and corporations that send our precious wood, water, oil, and metals to china! she supports monsanto!!! she supports poisoning our soils and food supply with gmo's , and toxic pesticides, etc.!!!

- as a warhawk, she will continue to sacrifice our children and the children of other mothers around the world through wars and the industrial war machine - for money and greed.

Requires a wheelchair van to get her out but she goes TO the voting booth every time. Won't vote absentee she said too many young men died for her to take the lazy way...
