I, at least, watch Hillary and can't imagine being this calm and patient with some of these people.

It's quite a contrast to Donald Trump.

It's a bit disingenuous to claim Clinton keeps her cool. In pretty much all the videos you mentioned Hillary eventually resorts to sarcasm as she did in this video.

See, you interpret it is sarcasm, but I don't. I think she's being entirely serious when she tells the person to go run for office.

The reason these videos keep making the news is because people keep engineering the confrontations. It doesn't seem to be having the effect you hope for.

I agree, I didn't think she was sarcastic either. I thought she was serious.

So if someone says to you "You know what dear" in a raised voice, you believe them to be offering sincere advice?

Honestly? If said person is a grandmother in her 60s? She gets the benefit of the doubt on the sincerity versus sarcasm of "dear."

She didn't want a dialogue. If she had, she would've given her contact information to the campaign, as hundreds of people on the trail have done, and they would've followed up with her, because they always do.

What she wanted was a video and when she had that, she left.

Do you personally know Stacey Rosana? Or are you just making stuff up?

Of course I don't know her and of course I'm making stuff up. But if she actually wanted a dialogue, why did she leave?

Umm, a secret service agent and a Governor had a little something to do with her leaving. Do you really think she could of stayed and continued the dialogue after Hillary raised her voice?

OK. You win. Hillary is a horrible human being and I will never, ever, ever vote for her.

I'm black and I'm not offended by how Hillary handled this. First, she may have been genuine in suggesting that the young lady run for office. If she is passionate about politics, why not? Let's say Hillary was being sarcastic, way the young lady being overly argumentative? I'm sorry, you get to make your point, but you can't just keep arguing with a candidate when the candidate has to speak to other people also. There are certain protocols. You don't get a pass because you are young and passionate about your cause.

Why are you referring to a Somali American instead of an African American?

Maybe because the person identifies themself as Somali American. Blacks who have been in America for generations refer to themselves as African American. Recent immigrants from Africa tend to identify with specific countries in Africa rather than just Africa as a continent. They are all black, but just as people from the continent of Europe are not homogeneous, nor are blacks.

That is the term the linked article uses. Minnesota has the largest Somali American community in the US.
