Essentially her point was that here in this country we have came to a point finally where race as an issue is behind us for a minority to be seriously considered for the presidency. Then she's a witling, since she said it twice. One time, I'd say she was speaking extemporaneously, but twice tells me she really believes it.

He simply used an argument that his close friend Governor Patrick advised him to use in response to the Clintons. He used it word-for-word. Plagiarism: the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work. If the show fits...kick yourself with it.

Yet, the Progressive movement and Marxism are something new? Forrest, Do yourself a favor and read a little on, "The Invisible Hand."

Here's what I noticed as I sat watching the news coverage on this...if you notice (which I did right away) the first time she said it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not unauthorized. Patrick told him to use the same argument. Politicians use the same arguments their peers use all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one thing to give the same argument, but it's another thing to lift a 2 year old speech almost verbatim. But, hey, he's your guy. Let's hope, if he makes it to the White House, while he's staring down Islamic terrorists, he can lift Ronald Regan speeches. There might be hope with a parrot as President.
