I am not advocating for either candidate, though I was Bernie delegate at our State Assembly. I found the article very inclusive, factual, and in many cases enlightening since I recognize my own prejudices more and more frequently.
I also found the replies to cover the gamut, particularly ones we see here at DU, and provided a fair amount of serious discussion.
I know it is a long article and may take time to absorb, some things in life are worth the effort. Especially when it may influence the future of mankind.

slow reading or thinking to me.

I read the whole thing, including some of the comments. I can't help it if you are slower.

I'm leaving for work, or I'd take the time to point out the talking points and phrasing that I've read over and over and over.

Feel free to post anything you think is new to me, that I didn't notice. I'll see it tomorrow morning.

4. Sorry someone was so rude to you. 3 minutes to pick your post out on the board, decide to read it

Click into it, read your post, open the article, actually read the whole article in any kind of a mindful, thoughtful manner (not just skim it), click and open a reply window, formulate a response and post it? It stretches credulity.

Thanks for the post.

There is nothing specifically new in the article which is a partisan summary.

7. My biggest issue with Hillary has been that she is under FBI investigation..

and that if she is indicted she will damage the party beyond repair. Also the fact she openly lied about the email investigation, as evidenced by the state department OIG report. In fact, she lied about being under investigation. She said it was simply a "security review" which was dismissed by the FBI and state department as being false.

delusions about why she is awful."

Couldn't find whatever comment you were linking, but the base article is still a good read.

9. Amazing discovery: homeboy likes him some Clinton.

Further revelation: she doesn't actually have fangs or poison sacs.

Not sure what is supposed to have made this a must-read. It seems neither profound nor moving, nor does it seem to mount any particular defense for any reader already aware tat Rush Limbaugh sometimes tells fibs.
