Though I wish we could just ban all political ads; they're soooo boring and annoying.
Impossible, but after seeing Hillary's commercial for the 100th time in a day I'm on board to try to figure out a way.

Just think a "this add is sponsored by J.P. Morgan" everytime you see it.

Yes, she and Tim Kaine have recently reformed their pro-TPP stance.

yeah; impossible. Only way would be to amend the constitution to make it an exception to the first amendment. That'd be too unpopular to do, even considering how much everyone hates political ads.

Not bad so far, but I'd like to see more of what the Dems plan to do and less about how bad Trump is.

I think when the week is over we might actually get to see her give a speech

Unsurprisingly, Hillary is getting support and speeches from both major education unions- the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers. Considering the great educational reforms she wants, and considering Trump's apathy, it makes sense.
|
Naturally unions will want the left.
It has been 90% anti-Trump thus far, too bad.

yeah; not sure why I'm bothering to watch the convention; as nothing of import is decided there.
Then again, if I were running the convention I'd probably make it truly boring. At least this stuff is entertaining for parts of the base.

No one believes she went from thinking the TPP was the gold standard to being against it. 100% TPP passes under Clinton. Might tag on some BS environmental/worker protections but it will still be crap for US workers and average folks.
|
I'm excited for Michelle Obama's speech; she'll be the first woman to ever have speeches at both the RNC and DNC 
|
I believe TPP will be good for the US. though some tweaks may be in order.

Trade agreements have had plenty of issues and have fallen severely out of favor for good reason. If TPP is a good thing I'll believe it when I see it.

Which is why you haven't seen it, and why fast tracking it was pushed by some Democrats.
