In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton receives award at Selma Bridge Crossing Jubilee Unity Breakfast [View all]Gothmog
(145,046 posts)7. Selma sets a stage for Democrats
From the Washington Post https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/selma-event-a-showcase-for-democratic-figures/2019/03/03/9e8f55b6-3ae6-11e9-a2cd-307b06d0257b_story.html?utm_term=.4f171f0f4266
Clinton appeared at a unity breakfast in her honor. While some strategists believe her 2016 campaign struggled in part because of a failure to turn out enough African American voters, no such lack of enthusiasm was on display Sunday.
A small choir serenaded Clinton with a song about moving forward, rising up, and climbing higher mountains. Hillary, one verse went, youre still rising. One speaker made a request for when she is president. Another outlined a justification for inducting her into the
National Voting Rights Museum Womens Hall of Fame. Some wore T-shirts that said, Hillary is my president.
She was elected president of the United States, and it was stolen from her, said state Sen. Hank Sanders, as a breakfast crowd of about 700 rose to its feet. It was stolen from her by the FBI. . . . It was stolen from her by the Russians.

I suppose I never heard of an active politician who didn't support him/her/themselves.
