I've been told that many times (any time we're discussing an issue of principle vs financial benefit, pretty much), and I'm a straight white male.

They use that line on everyone, not just the groups you mentioned, although those groups are where the message is the best received, and they just happen to be (coincidentally, I'm sure) the same demographics that the Democrats have a significant advantage with, and can't afford to lose any of.

That is interesting, because I have been told as an upper middle class, straight, white man in the South I am not supposed to vote for Democrats. I have even been told by some folks that I am "voting against my race" whatever that means.

And if NiceT4 died, her family would inherit the balance. If you drop dead, other than limited survivor benefits there is no way to pass it along.

I don't think Hillary should run, too much stress on her body.

I don't do the bumper sticker thingy........too much risk of getting your car vandalized by some angry person.
