Hillary Clinton Will Evoke Roosevelt and Try to Ease Fears on Trust in New York Speech
New York Times ^ | June 11, 2015 | Amy Chozick

Posted on 06/12/2015 4:30:05 PM PDT by lbryce

Hillary Rodham Clinton, at a major outdoor rally planned for Saturday, will directly address concerns that have emerged in the early weeks of her candidacy, telling voters they can trust her to fight for the middle class and stressing that she cares about their problems, several people briefed on her plans say.

The speech, at an event shaping up to be the most ambitious public gathering undertaken by the campaign since Mrs. Clinton began her quest for the White House in April, will be shaped by symbolism as she seeks to make the case for why she should be president.

It will be held in New York City on an island named for Franklin D. Roosevelt, in the shadow of diverse middle-class neighborhoods, as Mrs. Clinton tries to evoke the legacy of the New Deal and lay out her vision for a federal government substantially engaged in lifting American families that feel economically insecure and increasingly left behind.

Hillary has one chance to be President.

The RNC providing another designated loser like Jeb Bush as an opponent.

I didn’t know Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Franklin Delano Roosevelt is no friend of mine. But Hillary Clinton is no Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Considering the way they teach history nowadays, how many younger voters even know who FDR was??? She wants to evoke history and all of that, but how much of her symbolism will go.over the heads of her people???

Churchill was right: “A new Dark Age made all the more terrible and prolonged by the sinister powers of science.”

“”they can trust her to fight for the middle class “”

Crazy question: When was the last time we had a candidate for president who promised to do what was RIGHT for THE COUNTRY? RR?

"She’s been talking to Eleanor Roosevelt again?"

Clinton called it "channeling."

LOL!

Can’t help but note that her key campaign line is “I wanna be your champion!”. A real fearless fighter.

The complaints are now mounting about what a “fighter” she has been since she announced. But only if you can find her! She somehow fought for no one and nothing, today, as the vote on ObamaTrade fell, one of her own favored issues. Possibly the biggest vote since Obamacare! Hillary goes dark. LOL!!

Zero, zip and nada on trade. What a hero. %:./
