Hillary Clinton announces campaign stops in Wisconsin

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign says she will make several stops in Wisconsin next week.

Clinton is expected to hold events in Madison, Milwaukee, La Crosse, and Green Bay next Monday and Tuesday, where a campaign release says she will “discuss her plans to break down all the barriers that hold Americans back, and encourage Wisconsinites to take advantage of the last week of early voting.”

Specific dates and times for the campaign events are due to be released later.

Seeking key African American votes in Milwaukee, Clinton Friday also released a television ad highlighting her concern about shootings by police and referencing a Wisconsin case. The ad also features narration by actor Morgan Freeman and shots of Clinton with President Barack Obama.

The support of black voters has been crucial to Clinton in her race against Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

"Trayvon Martin, shot to death. Dontre Hamilton, unarmed. Sandra Bland did nothing wrong," Clinton says in the ad, referencing three police shooting cases from Milwaukee around the country.

Some politicians do that, you know. They go from town to town, venue to venue, just reciting the same speech that everyone's heard hundreds of times before. The same talking points, the same applause lines, the same promises ... over and over again. (Little wonder that the cable and network news outlets don't give those politicians much coverage.)

She is not running as a one trick pony and has not shunned any state, she wants to be president to everyone.
