If endorsements are unimportant why post this article? betterdemsonly Apr 2015 #40

I think it's odd that your comments effectively limit Obama's influence to the AA community. nt MADem Apr 2015 #42

and instead of asking on this site why don't these "liberals" tell us how they tried to reach out JI7 Apr 2015 #16

That is most certainly how DU and its "liberaler than thous" treat black folks Number23 Apr 2015 #18

I would think that the school closings betterdemsonly Apr 2015 #20

Probably are. But since Chuy doesn't post on DU, I'm not sure that I understand your comment Number23 Apr 2015 #21

If you don't know what Chuy stood for betterdemsonly Apr 2015 #22
