4. Hope And Aspiration - My Butt.....

Sep 2015

Look at how the Repugs treated our President - the first Black President. One whose message was one of -- Hope and Aspiration.

As President Obama was taking his oath of office - the Repugs were plotting to make him a one term President and not cooperate with him or give him any wins. It was their message of 'division'. And they did everything in their power over the last 7 years to make good on their plotting. Unfortunately for them and fortunately for us - President Obama was and is smarter than them.

Jeb's words here are hollow and meaningless. The Repugs - and especially Jeb - don't have a message that is 'uplifting'. It is only one of pushing down the youth, the old, the poor and the middle class. The only 'uplifting' Jeb and the Repugs are for is the 'uplifting of the 1%ers.
