A Question Hillary is Going to be Asked since her Campaign raised it in the First Place: [View all]

Maybe before you start slamming Civil Rights activists with demeaning comments like 'who cares what he did 50 years ago' you should consider the fact that maybe a LOT OF PEOPLE care and they might then want to know what YOU were doing at that same time.

I know that was the first question that occurred to me when I saw people dismissing the Civil Rights Movement: 'Hillary was there back then too, what was she doing'?
