The Congressional Black Caucas DID NOT endorse Hillary Clinton

It turns out they didn't but their super pac did. It is made up of lobbists - including for the tobacco industry.

Watch minute 31 of Democracy nows show today at that link. Tomorrow this link will be moved to their past shows link on this page and then you will look it up by going to Friday, Feb 12, 2016.

They explain it in 1 minute.

That said, spending anytime on DemocracyNow.org's daily shows would behove you. Listening for 10 mins to that interview would be very good as it is informative.

It's always a pleasure to hear from someone who thinks they know what would "behoove" me.

I remain very pleased with their endorsement.

Have a nice day!
