That's right. She is a racist. Her, Bill, their surrogates. I don't understand why people Liberal_Stalwart71 Mar 2015 #102

mwrguy is right: HRC *did* start that secret campaign, plus her dog whistle Liberal_Stalwart71 Mar 2015 #116

How does she know how hard white people work? merrily Apr 2015 #126

So you're thinking this was a calculated play for white votes? Maedhros Apr 2015 #147
