questions and answers
The one take away I got is that Hillary isn't promising things she can't deliver on.
on a question about college from a mother with 5yr old twins she said "don't edit yourself, set high standards for kids" meaning don't let the high cost of education today stop you from planning to send your kids to college if that is their interest to do.
and by the time Hillary is in her 4th year college will be affordable but kids may have to work etc.
Well that was from notes I took
I am not good at note taking.
From Me, we get dumped on by Bernie folks because he promises better stuff than Hillary. Well I doubt he can deliver on them. Again Hillary doesn't promise things that can't get done
