The truth comes out.
Via The Star-Ledger- Andrews says he heard racist strategy from Clinton camp
U.S. Rep. Rob Andrews, who supported Hillary Clinton throughout the primary season, disclosed he received a phone call shortly before the April 22 Pennsylvania primary from a top member of Clinton’s organization and that the caller explicitly discussed a strategy of winning over Jewish voters by exploiting tensions between Jews and African-Americans.
"There have been signals coming out of the Clinton campaign that have racial overtones that indeed disturb me," Andrews said at his campaign headquarters in Cherry Hill Tuesday night after he lost his bid for the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination.
"Frankly, I had a private conversation with a high-ranking person in the campaign … that used a racial line of argument that I found very disconcerting. It was extremely disconcerting given the rank of this person. It was very disturbing."
Andrews said the phone call came after he angered the Clinton camp by making some positive comments about Obama. He would not disclose the caller’s name because of the private nature of the conversation.
The Obama camp declined to comment. Clinton’s campaign issued an angry response to Andrews, who once was charged with lobbying other members of Congress to support her.
"Comments like these, coming so soon after Congressman Andrews’ crushing defeat, are sad and divisive," said Clinton’s chief national spokesman, Phil Singer.
Andrews stood by his statements and said: "I would hope that all Democrats can put this divisiveness behind them. I’m glad the Clinton campaign is finally about to change its tone." He said he made his comments only after his primary loss to Sen. Frank Lautenberg because "I didn’t want people to think I was trying to win over Obama supporters in the primary."
I suspected as such, but now it has been confirmed. Hillary’s camp wanted to effectively divide the Democrat Party, and pit Jews and against blacks.
A very sad thing indeed, shows just how desperate that they really were.
No wonder she lost. This ought to serve as lesson to anyone thinking of running for President, you cannot pit to groups against one another and be elected President.
