“…brought the convention to a stalemate”

Obama gets away with equating Hillary with pro-slavery forces in US history.

The document they produced was eventually signed but ultimately unfinished. It was stained by this nation’s original sin of slavery, a question that divided the colonies and brought the convention to a stalemate until the founders chose to allow the slave trade to continue for at least twenty more years, and to leave any final resolution to future generations.

It is so funny. If Hillary had planted such an obvious subliminal, such an obvious frame for a speech, she would be crucified. Overall, it is a really good speech. not a great speech all of Obama’s supporters are saying, but a good speech. Strategically he needed to do it to try to make another story to bury the one about his reverend. A bold gambit.
