Related: About this forumBiden and Clinton, ya'll
[font size=4]"Ive known Hillary for a long time from the time she was First Lady, Senator from New York, and our Secretary of State. She is a force of nature. Shes tough, shes brilliant, and she genuinely loves serving this country. Hillary is the kind of person who, at the end of the day, wants to help people and make their lives better. Thats who you want as your president."[/font]

That's how that's done.
That's how Democrats do it. They support one another unequivocally. That's what's best for the party because that's what's best for the country.
And he should know, amirite?

Friends and allies help you get stuff done. Ideological purity just makes you ignore how little you're actually achieving.

We've got some great things in that platform. $15 an hour minimum wage. Decriminalization of Marijuana and the abolition of the death penalty.

(11,014 posts)7. Why not a $20 minimum wage? Or $25?
Why is $15 so important?
In reality, Hillary is right on that one. $12 as a federal baseline and higher in high standard of living areas.

(4,532 posts)9. Funny argument.
I could say the same. Why 12? Why not 13? In reality it should be more like $21.75
