The past week's political events that help shape American  politics.
Acontecimientos políticos de la semana pasada que ayudan a conformar el cuerpo político estadounidense

 The Fat Lady still has not sung. It's not over. Please don't believe the media hype. Bernie lost by 2/10ths of a point in Missouri and got 32 delegates to Clinton's 31. He lost by 1.5 points in Illinois and received 67 delegates. Clinton received 68. If you care about your country, there is an internet full of information - you can choose what not to believe and what to believe, but first look at the information. Search the candidates' histories. Anybody can write a commercial -- I did it for 34 years. Anybody can write a speech or make a promise. But you need to dig deeper. Look further. It's not about what's best for the candidate or who deserves what. It's about what's good for the country - what's good for our children and our grandchildren's futures. It's not about who endorsed who - somebody could promise somebody's church a million dollars worth of benefits for their endorsement. This is not to say endorsements don't have any value. They do. But the most valuable tool is your mind. Take the time to research the candidates. If you're in a state that has not yet voted - or you know someone that is - don't listen to the media, don't listen to the establishment - learn for yourself. The most dangerous voter is an informed voter. The Bible says "My people perish for lack of knowledge." To those of you who have your minds made up and don't want to be confused by the facts - I beg you to open your mind, and get the facts. I promise you won't be confused. Emma Young The Chicago AD Lady
