My 25 is frwife is from india. I still love india. Be careful yeah. But and india has enormous potential and capability. But i have to, again, simply say india has a great capacity also for disappointing. It lumbers forward like an elephant and it also operates on its own strategic agenda. People from the Indian Strategic elite and ive spoken to a few of them by accident. They all seem to be related to my inlaws in one way or another, country of 1. You know, 2 billion and Everybody Knows everybody else it seems. They are not ready to play this kind of role.

Throughout cancer alley you have the facilities that have remains of slave burial grounds. Throughout the history of our country, the black lives have been intertwined and in the pathway of des
Makes aknow if he twoperson cut. I think he is being seriously considered. He is many things that senator clinton is not. Hes more of a populist in terms of both record and approach. Gravellya great, voice. He has someone who has made good in a swing state like ohio. I think he compliments are in many ways without being what she views as someone who might be difficult to work with in Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders. Brown is more of an idealist i think then Hillary Clinton who i think is more of a pragmatist, but he is not in her view so far off on the idealistic wing that he doesnt know how to get things done. He knows the compromises and sacrifices that need to be made. They did serve together in the u. S. Senate. There seem to be a couple of variables in terms of what the Clinton Campaign will want to do. Do they want to move more to the left, more to the center to help get republican votes, and what does Bernie Sanders want moving ahead . It is a complicated because there are so
