Clinton Endorsed by South Carolina Ministers
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton, in her first visit to Spartanburg as a candidate, picked up endorsements from several dozen black ministers Tuesday here. She and fellow Democrat Barack Obama have been locked in a tight battle for black voters in South Carolina.
The clergy were drawn to Clinton for her views on health care, jobs and other issues, said a state representative who helped organize the endorsements. “They felt this was the best candidate addressing their concerns,” said state Rep. Harold Mitchell, a Democrat from Spartanburg who announced last month that he was backing the Clinton campaign.
This has got to be the dumbest group of ministers on planet Earth.
