How come it's "I'm with Her" instead of "She's with Us" -- food for thought


It's as though Americans are somehow getting inside an exclusive club by being 'with her' vs. she is a supporter of everyday Americans, and therefore 'with us'.

Some may say what difference does it make? and I would say it makes all the difference in the WORLD!

Love this. When she talks about love and kindness it sounds so hollow. It sounds nothing like when Bernie says "Love trumps hate".

I can't pay my rent with love and kindness!

was popularized by Astrid Silva, the DREAMer activist who got thrown under the Sander's bus for endorsing Clinton. I did post it here, but was told derisively that it was a lesbian hashtag. So whatever.....
