HRC Endorsement: 22 S. Dakota Native American Leaders

by mtg44234, Fri May 30, 2008 at 04:24:52 PM EST

The HRC Campaign has just announced the endorsements of 22 Native American Leaders from the great state of South Dakota. These endorsements could potentially help HRC in the Native American sections of the state and the bring out the vote.

Hillary does have a comprehensive Native American Agenda for South Dakota, something the great "CHANGE" campaign is lacking. Her plan includes an outreach for unemployement to healthcare to those of the Native American Community.

Here is the link for the full endorsement: http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/relea se/view/?id=7870

Bring on the comments of "Who Cares?" and "Big Deal?" Just think about what your commenting on...

I'm sure the diarist will edit now that the assertion has been proven false.

No CHANGE Angenda for native americans? (2.00 / 3)

http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/ 05/19/obama-adopted-by-native-americans/

Barack Black Eagle would like to have some words with you.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad Clinton is reaching out to native americans, who have been an ignored and abused minority for too long, but please don't imply that Obama is somehow lacking in support of them.


In this avalanche, the pebbles get to vote.

that should be (2.00 / 2)

Re: HRC Endorsement: 22 S. Dakota Native American (2.00 / 4)

No sarcasm here.  Were I running, I'd be honored to have that endorsement.  It would mean a lot more than all the Ricky Martins and Tom Hankses you could get.

Think about what we're commenting on? (2.00 / 2)


Why don't you think about why you're burning energy on a campaign that is over and saying things about the nominee that aren't true.  

Before you say he doesn't have a plan, why don't you check?  It was one thing a few months ago, but at this point you're just inacurately smearing the Democratic nominee.

Why don't you think about what you're commenting on?

Hillary is going to do well in SD, along with her big victory in PR on Sunday.

Didn't people petition Bill Clinton to free Leonard just before he left office?

How did that go again?  I'm surprised the people of SD don't remember that.
