Why support Hillary?

| October 27, 2016 1:00 AM

Democrats are typically the party of the people (not corporations) and their record reveals increased employment and decreased unemployment over history.

The list is long, but here are some of the most important reasons to support the most qualified presidential candidate in history, a Democrat. Hillary Clinton has the knowledge, skills and ability to guide our country in:

Income equality (making the wealthy pay their fair share, and growing the middle class), clean energy, racial and social equality, expanded affordable healthcare, protecting Social Security, living wages for everyone who works full time, quality public schools, reduced gun violence, national security and international diplomacy.

The choice is easy for me. Hillary Clinton kept our son out of harm’s way six years ago as Secretary of State. He is a second lieutenant in the Army and he will be deployed during the next four years. I want her to be his commander-in-chief.

I look forward to a functional congress and hope for peace and prosperity in our nation. I urge you to support Hillary Rodham Clinton.
