  • Black Liberal Activist BLASTS Hillary Clinton’s ‘Very Generic,’ ‘Watered Down’ Announcement Speech

    06.15.2015 | News | |

    After delivering her first official presidential campaign speech, Hillary Clinton is already striking out among the young, blacks, and liberal voters according to one noted activist.

    “Generation Y Not” co-founder Jamira Burley had some harsh words for Hillary Clinton after she officially launched her second bid for the White House over the weekend in New York.

    “Excitement,” Burley says, “is definitely not the word I would use. I didn’t hear anything from Hillary that I didn’t expect. It was nothing moving. It was very generic for me. And, also, I feel like it was very watered down.”

    Burley continued to say that Hillary “didn’t do a good enough job” at reassuring young voters “who don’t trust government” that she would be different than other politicians and presidential candidates before her.

    Unfortunately for Hillary, Burley’s comments coincide with vast public sentiment.

    A new CNN/ORC poll found that 57% of Americans don’t think Hillary is “honest and trustworthy.” That number is up dramatically from 49% in March. Similar, a recent ABC News/Washington Post poll found that 52% of American voters say Hillary is dishonest and untrustworthy.
