How Hamilton’s Lin-Manuel Miranda Helped Hillary
Breitbart ^ | 11-20-16 | Spiering

On July 12, Hamilton creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda stood up at his show and welcomed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton to his show.

“This November, the difference could not be more stark, who do you think is going to get closer to those ideals?” he asked, referring to the Constitution and the founding fathers. “Are you going to vote for the guy who wants to build a wall, or for someone who’s building bridges?”

Miranda introduced Clinton as “the forty-fifth president of the United States” as she took the stage to address the crowd.

Why? Because it was a private fundraiser. Miranda hosted a special performance of the show exclusively for donors to Clinton’s presidential campaign. Tickets ranged from $2,700 to a whopping $100,000.

“I have now seen it three times, first at the Public and twice here, and I cry every time,” Clinton said.

Miranda tweeted a photo of himself with both Bill and Hillary Clinton urging America to “include women in the sequel” of the American story.

All these liberals are upset because there will be no invitations to the White House and losing that sense of importance. I get it.

This is probably not in the play: Hamilton had an idea called the Electoral College
