Another endorsement! (Hillary Group)

[yallerdawg]

"When it comes to real national leadership on this issue there is so clearly one candidate that rises above all the others – Hillary Clinton. She fought alongside Brady when we passed the historic, lifesaving Brady Bill – Bernie Sanders voted against it. Hillary is the only Democratic candidate running for President who voted against the truly evil Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), the gun lobby-backed bill that gives the gun industry special protection from liability that no other industry enjoys. One of the ugliest pieces of special interest legislation in the last 20 years Bernie Sanders had a chance to vote against it, but he actually voted to help pass PLCAA.

Hillary Clinton is the only candidate who, as a member of Congress and national leader, has consistently put the safety of the American public ahead of the interests of the corporate gun lobby. If you truly want to see, finally, the historic change on this issue that we all want and deserve, there is clearly one candidate who deserves your vote – and that candidate is Hillary Clinton! The Brady Campaign endorses Hillary Clinton for President, now you can too. Sign onto our endorsement today!"

8. Along with Ms Fulton's endorsement, this will secure the AA vote for Hillary Clinton.

African Americans, by and large, want stronger gun safety laws because, well, their sons and daughters are dying in droves due to the lax laws we now have in each and every State (except for California, which has the strictest gun safety laws in the nation - but what still needs a lot of work, and that's saying something).

Lax gun safety laws have so frustrated and disheartened the AA community that they went from 85% in support of stricter gun laws to 65-70% - but it's still a huge majority and only because they believe they should begin to arm themselves as well in order to protect themselves and their children.

I don't see any other candidate running for the Democratic nomination now winning the majority of the AA vote, and without it, they can't win the nomination.
