I didn't think Wulfric was this dense.

Clinton: 'My worries are not the same as black grandmothers'

What is borderline racist about it? It's absolutely true. African-American parents and grandparents have far more to be worried about when it comes to mistreatment by law enforcement

She's exactly right. Charlotte and Aidan Clinton-Mezvinsky will not face the fear of mistreatment by law enforcement that many African-American children face

So it roughly translates to: "because my grandchildren are white, they will get in less trouble with the law." Congrats, Clinton, you've just created a new Trump atrack: "Crooked Hillary Clinton is so racist that at a black church she actually said "because my grandchildren are white, they will get in less trouble with the law." She is saying that Blacks are criminals! Vote for me, what do you have to lose ?!?

And who will this attack ad appeal too?

Democrats don't need to pander to white people who would be offending by this. She knows this, which is why she is being completely honest about this issue.

Exactly. She's not going to win the "policing is never racist!!!!1111!!!!" vote over Trump.

Yup.

Jamelle Bouie just wrote an article about this subject today. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/cover_story/2016/10/hillary_clinton_s_reverse_sister_souljah_moment.html

If anything, this thread gives me hope for humanity. One dumb assertion, and countless "that's not right" appeals to intelligence in response. Thanks, Atlas.

lol

Moments like the one shown in that video with Clinton speaking and holding the little girl lead me to believe that Hillary will get close to Obama's 2012 turnout among blacks.

I'm glad Wulfric is the only one who thinks this is racist.

Looks like you've been reading too much Breitbart

Lol

Trump is losing and you are desperately trying to find a way to drag Hillary down. Stop it, because you are only making yourself look silly.

[Statilius the Epicurean]

I think this is a slight reach

Title changed

Title changed

It's not even potentially risky. You are still failing.

[rafta_rafta]

It's

1) not risky

2) Not controversial

3) Supported by an unbiased reading of the facts

Wulfric doesn't want Trump to win. But he DESPERATELY wants the narrative of "Both sides are equally bad" to be true.
