"Remind them succinctly that a vote for Hillary is a vote for the working class"

Does anybody here watch Comedy Central's "Broad City"? Hillary did a cameo in last night's episode. The show (produced by Amy Poehler) both celebrates and pokes fun at feminism and millennials. Last night they took aim at the Hillary campaign, with some friendly jibes.

In the episode, "2016," Ilana lands what she thinks is a paying job — she ultimately discovers she's just a lowly volunteer — at Hillary's campaign headquarters. Upon realizing where she is (she arrives, as one does, during her short-lived stint as a bike messenger), Glazer hears a rising chorus and aggressively salutes a Hillary poster. One orgasmic yelp and a quick glance at her CV later, Glazer joins the team: "Ilana Glazer and Hillary Clinton! Two powerful women working as one?"

"Well," says the woman at the front desk. "You'll probably never see her, but sure."

Spoiler alert: Ilana does see her! But the non-endorsement endorsement happens long before Clinton comes on-screen. Ilana goes to her first meeting, where [guest star Cynthia] Nixon is explaining the guidelines for cold calls: "Remind them succinctly that a vote for Hillary is a vote for the working class."

and some deep 11th dimension ironic inside baseball. Was Hillary punked a bit?

The ENTIRE plot must be about her...

Compare that with Al Yankovic's Cameos for one that just fits perfectly...

I do not pretend I know what I do not know.

Her hair doesn't move. Her Mao jumpsuits are nor flattering. Her face and smile aren't real. Her mouth is always open too big. She is not warm and appealing at all.

her mention of her 600dollar hair do is just another sign she was out of touch as she is part of the 1% and we are getting that vs Bernie, and then possibly Trump if she does manage to be the nominee.

So long, and thanks for all the fish

And 600 dollar dye job. That is twelve hundred bucks, not including tip.
Kinda why I loved the you tube video of Bernie's midwestern barber visit.

Framing her as middle class is just plain dishonest.

She is of the wealthy class, not the working class, yet they try and make her seem to be one of us, the poor, the working and middle class when she is worth well more than even many CEO's
