The Hiliary commercial showing children watching things Trump "said" always bothered me. Have we stooped so low to bring kids into something like that? Even if it's true, what parent involves kids into politics like that? Pretty low IMO

I totally agree. And this election year has sunk pretty low through out the whole time on the road. Imo

were talking about a lady who paraded and manipulated the parents of a Muslim U.S. Soldier killed in action on stage during the DNC. Remember.. the husband spoke the whole time.. while the wife sat still and said... nothing.

While totally ignoring the parents of those killed in Benghazi.

Why not bring them up on stage?. Were their sons not killed in action too?

She would us any means..any.

the kids are 'in it',,,from as early as elementary school they are learning about government,,,,,they have role models and like it or not the President i one, and should carry themself as one,,,,,

Trump already had his supporters of choice on stage


thats how the 'campaign' works


Trump has cheerleaders to continue pressing on about clinton and benghazi deaths,,,

Clinton had her cheerleaders press on about patriotic and american people who are 'muslim',,


difference there is,, Clinton is not suggesting the families of those in Benghazi be restricted from travels or put on watch lists

Kids can learn about government without being subjected to the nasty mudslinging. That commercial (using children!) is a low life tactic

I am not talking about using ADULTS in mudslinging. I am talking about using CHILDREN.

It's disgusting

its informative for parents voting, in thinking what their vote means for their kids


he is a disgusting example of an adult man, let alone a president

And Hillary is exemplary example of an adult woman let alone a president.
Oh my!!!

I have to totally, agree bringing children into mudslinging ads IMHO is disgusting.

I can't wait for this election to be over. I frankly am sick of it all...

by that standard,what is Hillary then?

Children appeal to FEELINGS amd weak people respond to there feelings instead of rational logic....Hillary is after weak-minded low-information voters which unfortunately is now a majority in this country

I heartily disapprove of all mudslinging.

But since Trump did and said what he did, all while knowing full well that EVERYONE was watching, including kids, the criticism is valid.

I am an old fashioned conservative. I hold everyone responsible for their choices and their actions, including the ones who spend all their time criticizing others.

I haven't seen the exact political ad being discussed here. Were any false statements, that is things Trump DID NOT ACTUALLY SAY ON TV included?

If not, I think it's a bit one-sided to complain only about Clinton's campaign people, and say nothing about the fact that Trump provided the "ammunition."

considering , 'bringing children in' refers to a half dozen child actors being portrayed as simply listening to Trump speak

I dont see how its any more disgusting then him speaking that way in front of the scores of children in his audiences

Rule of thumb is you do not bring children into adult conversations or adult subjects.. It is tacky.. it is low.. it is classless

That " rule" has been around for a very long time.

who determines what political, national interests are only for 'adults'?

and why are children allowed to political events,, if its supposed to be an 'adults' thing?


if thats the rule though, both candidates have broken it,, by exposing any children to it, or speaking about it in front of crowds that include kids

speaking to a crowd that has kids in it and using kids directly as a tool in a negative manner against someone else in one of your ads is quite different.

Its low class.

And I say it was a rule.. not for one side.. or the other. a rule.. that I think the majority of people would agree with.

That was the rule I was brought up to respect...but if you feel it was o.k. to use kids in that manner.... well, what can I say.... different values.

why are kids any less a 'tool' when they are being brought to hear an adult speak and the adult knowing this still spouts rhetoric and directs vulgar chants for the crowd to repeat?

sounds like selective disgust to me




its either disgusting they are involved or its not

if the adult is performing to what they know is a mixed crowd, they have the ability to speak appropriately

I find it disgusting to speak that way in front of kids,,and the values of the people making that point in the ads apparently is the same as mine

So apparently the definition of tool now means 'present' instead of being used.


so if an armed guard is in a bank when its robbed, his gun (its present and not being used) is a tool in the robbery. Obviously used the same way the armed robber used his (even though the robber was directing the use of his gun)...so apparently that guard needs arrested dor robbery he was present!

why are kids any less a 'tool' when they are being brought to hear an adult speak and the adult knowing this still spouts rhetoric and directs vulgar chants for the crowd to repeat?

_____________________________________________________________________

Did the speaker bring them there?.. did he put them in a T.V. studio and tape a commercial using them. Did he pay people to arrange this to happen? Pay the families of the kids?

If a parent decides to bring their kids to a rally or speaking event.. that is THEIR decision, not the speakers.

Hillary used the kids.. as she would use anyone else either.. for her own personal gain.

And in reality if you read the press on that commercial.... it backfired. It seems the vast majority of the people who did view it.. found it disgusting and manipulative.

No class

no idea what that meant'

ask oj,, if a gun is 'present',, the charge is the same

I doubt anyone but a majority of Trump supporters opposed the commercial

my point stands


seems hypocritical to not find it 'disgusting' when an adult in the presence of children chooses not to temper their language but find it disgusting if a person shows children watching such a person
