interesting background. multiethnic background that s sort of interesting. and i tend to think about politics a little differently, is to me the shorter your federal resume the better off you are. opposition research is the first thing you have to think about when you re running for president. what will people use in ads against me? rachel maddow very wisely asked her about two of them, three of them really, and her answers to those were interesting. the death penalty issue, which will be an opposition ad. the republicans will run a willie horton-style campaign about the fact she did not seek the death penalty against the person who killed an officer named espinoza. the crime lab issue, which came up when there were flaws in a crime lab or misconduct and she threw out the cases. yep, republicans are going to use that. she answered that tonight. and criminal justice reform, which is going to be what the other side gets her on. the thing kamala harris is facing right now is are people on
will be an opposition ad. the republicans will run a willie horton-style campaign about the fact she did not seek the death penalty against the person who killed an officer named espinoza. the crime lab issue, which came up when there were flaws in a crime lab or misconduct and she threw out the cases. yep, republicans are going to use that. she answered that tonight. and criminal justice reform, which is going to be what the other side gets her on. the thing kamala harris is facing right now is are people on the left, particularly younger people of color who are saying kamala is a cop, that kamala prosecuted people, she s a prosecutor so we don t trust her. i think that s the core issue she has to answer in the primary. she has to come up with an explanation for what her record means for her thoughts on criminal justice reform. if she can get through that, that short resume s actually helpful. there s not a lot more than that for the oppo research. i think what our recent politics h
treated equally, the same values i grew up with in houston and try to teach my kids. please join me in supporting the houston equal rights ordinance. vote yes on proposition 1. other side, this opposition ad. protect women s privacy, prevent danger, vote no on the proposition 1 bathroom ordinance. it goes too far. here to help us better understand the question on the ballot, former federal prosecutor caleb mason. good to see you. good to see you. for voters seeing the ads and don t understand for people outside of houston, walk us through legally what are we talking about? what is this ordinance? well, it s an ordinance that is very similar if not identical to laws that exist in about 20 states. it s also very similar in its language and its scope to
not mean freedom from consequences. phil robertson learned that lesson this week. and my guess is should you run for president, round about two years from now, you will too. see, just because we won t ever hear robertson s comments on duck dynasty doesn t mean we haven t heard them. let s be clear, you spoke out in support of the guy who fondly recalls happy black people singing while working in the louisiana fields and who equate lgbt americans with people who have sex with animals. so don t be surprised if your words and his words come back to haunt you in an opposition ad in 2016. but, hey, maybe you can convince the american voter you were just expressing your views. once those voters are at the ballot box i m sure they ll be more than happy pi to express that same right and express their views about you too. sincerely, joy. ya know, with new fedex one rate you can fill that box and pay one flat rate. i didn t know the coal thing was real. it s very real. david rivera. rivera, davi
