The Truth Hurts. Obama has said exactly the same thing before, but it was framed differently and people agreed. It was in no way meant as an insult, but the truth about what has been going on. Republican has used guns, and religion to creae bitterness and distractions from the real issue for years. No Hillary Clinton a member our own party is doing the same ting. Hillary has done a real disservice to our party by taking a statement made at a private funraiser and made it into a big issue.
The working class needs to look beyond the rhetoric and listen to who will really try to help them. Obama has a lot more empaty and voting creditials that help the working class. He also speaks more to the truth about these jobs not coming back.
