well played hillary

In this article, it talks about a pretty cool ides that the Hillary campaign is using now that they have finished a run of tours to talk to voters. They have began fundraising to make up the money they will use down the homestretch as they push for the primaries. This idea is something they call 'hillstarters' (some sort of play on the fact her name is Hillary) where they invite a group of people to donate 2700 dollars to her campaign and then have them also get 10 other ppl to donate to her campaign. If these 10 donate then they get to come to some fundraisers she hosts and Get to feel lik they are contributing to her campaign. Its a good idea because all they have to do is find a bunch of rich ppl who have more rich friends and then these rich ppl basically do the fundraising for them. Pretty smart in my opinion. Their plan is to raise about 100 million dollars for the primaries.

american public on the border about immigration

The article "border crisis impacting public opinion on immigration" speaks about the noticsble change in public opinion on immigration over the course of just a few months. According to a CNN poll, in February of 2014 when people were asked what was most important about immigration policy the majority said that it was helping immigrants gain documentation while the minority said it was border security. After increased immigrants coming in to america though, a new poll shows that the majority say that border security is now the top priority on the immigration topic.

I think this poll is an excellent example of how the american public can change their minds so drastically just because something has been in the news recently. It amazes me that people's views can change after nothing actually happening just different coverage on the same topic.
