She also wants to increase ground aid, and build fruitful relationships with the Muslim community within the USA, in an attempt to bring the country together, to avoid divisions. “We have to decide whether we will all work together so we can all rise together”, Clinton said in an address on the final night of the convention. Her radical amnesty plan will take jobs, resources and benefits from the most vulnerable citizens of the United States and give them to the citizens of other countries.

In totality, the Democratic convention itself was flawless – with two exceptions: 1) the Debbie Wasserman Schultz mess; and 2) the few dozen Sanders delegates who disrupted Clinton last night.
Hillary’s concern that a tweet-happy Trump who couldn’t control his resentment of the Obamas and the Clintons and even the American military establishment shouldn’t be trusted with nuclear codes is genuine.
He recounted how his daughter recently told him her goal was to be the first woman president. It was a Reaganesque defense of American ideals – clearly created to appeal not just to Democrats but to independents and moderate Republicans as well.
He said Clinton “can’t hide” from her 25 years in public life. “You’ll be writing books about this campaign”.
He campaigned in another swing state, Colorado, on Friday and was scheduled to visit OH next week. Clinton’s margin in the area could slip to 500,000, and she would still easily win the state, Plouffe said.
Clinton, her supporters said, has to leave Philadelphia relentlessly reminding Democrats and undecided independents, who make up about 20 percent of the electorate, of her history fighting for their causes – and by painting Trump as unusually risky.
That Trump can’t be trusted or that he doesn’t mean anything he says was a theme dwelt on by, I estimate, every third speaker at the Democratic convention.
Hillary Clinton acknowledges the crowd at the end on the fourth day of the Democratic National Convention at the Wells Fargo Center, July 28, 2016 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
On Wednesday, the vice president delivered what was perhaps the most cogent critique of GOP nominee Donald Trump presented by any Democrat to date. According to Pew, “Despite a sometimes contentious primary process, support for Clinton in the general election is high among even the 20% of Democratic voters who consistently backed Sanders through the primary and caucus season: Among this group, just 8% prefer Trump in the general election, while 90% favor Clinton”.
On Thursday, people familiar with the matter said the FBI is investigating a cyber attack against another Democratic Party group, which may be related to the earlier hack against the DNC.
Yet another hack came to light on Thursday, when four people familiar with the matter told Reuters that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating a cyber attack against the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which raises money for Democrats running for the U.S. House of Representatives. There will be little remembered from the speech except the necessity of her supporters to start chanting in response to booing and heckling during the speech, which threw Hillary a couple of times.
Clinton also paid homage to former rival Sen.
She reached out to the Sanders people with praise, letting them know she heard their concerns. “Your cause is our cause”.
Getting African Americans to turn out in the sort of numbers President Barack Obama got, though, is going to be tough. Analysts say Clinton has to counter the impression she is unfeeling or unable to relate to the issues of the everyday American.
One of the best-known women in the world since the 1990s, Clinton is betting that she can defy the negative impressions that most voters have of her and restore some measure of trust with a distrustful electorate. He slammed the former secretary of state as an ineffectual defender against terrorism and blasted her judgment. “No wonder people are anxious and looking for reassurance – looking for steady leadership”.
Trump attacked Gen. John Allen, saying he “failed badly in his fight against ISIS”.
It was fascinating that, time and again during the course of the week, the most intimate details offered by friends involved her profound Methodism, her ceaseless work on behalf of others.
Donald Trump’s campaign manager says that if Hillary Clinton is right that it’s, “midnight in America”, it’s the fault of Democratic leaders.
“I am watching Crooked Hillary speak”, Trump tweeted during Clinton’s remarks. “She spent the evening talking down to the American people she’s looked down on her whole life”, said Stephen Miller, senior policy adviser.

“Speaking is hard for me”, Giffords said.
