them perfectly with trump. Well, trump does that on his own.

Explaining why we don't need that ilk in our White House

Hillary at the end paying rapt attention to the little girl and making her feel good about herself as it should be.

This generation is getting used to the idea that girls are important, powerful, capable people and should be nurtured into being everything they can be!

It's good pro-Hillary propaganda (as propaganda is designed to get an emotional response, as this ad does), but I find her answer to the little girl's question awful. She said nothing. "We need more love in the country." WTF does that mean and how, as president, are you going to do that?

Maybe classifying bullying as a hate crime would work. . .challenging the States to do so. . .supporting more funding to schools to enact tough, anti-bullying policies that include expulsion for bullying for students and loss of certification for teachers and principals who do nothing to stop it.

How about laws that, if a student is expelled for bullying, the parents are forced into state mandated counseling with their little turd to solve the problem and if they resist or do not take it seriously, actions are taken to remove the children from the environment that enables the bullying?

We have anti-hazing laws. . .why not strict anti-bullying laws?

So moving, so kind, such a star contrast. That big fat orange bully is going down the loserville street and it's making him totally crazy, OK crazier,
