Today on ABC “This Week,” Interim DNC Chair Donna Brazile discussed Secretary Clinton’s history fighting for all Americans. Brazile said of Secretary Clinton, “this is a woman who has shown over and over again in her career that she will elevate this conversation but, more importantly, she will get things done so all Americans can prosper and grow.” She also noted the anniversary of the historic March on Washington and what it meant for America.

Donna Brazile on This Week

Here is the transcript of Brazile’s remarks:

BRAZILE: Now 53 years ago, as you know, Martha, Dr. King led a very historic march here in Washington, D.C.  It was a march for jobs and freedom.  It was a march to raise expectations that this country could live up to its ideals.

As I have watched this debate, this conversation about bigotry, about racism, I find it all misplaced.

First of all, Donald Trump has not held an event in the black community.  He has not gone to a black church, as Hillary Clinton has done.  He’s not gone to historical black colleges — Hillary Clinton.  He’s not met with the mothers of children who have been slain and killed from violence in the country as Hillary Clinton has done.

So I’m not here to talk about bigotry in the sense that I don’t know what’s in Donald Trump’s heart.  I hope that it’s a heart of compassion.

But I can tell you about Hillary Clinton’s heart.  This is a woman, who, after law school, went down to my native South.  She went down, after graduating from Yale Law School, to help poor kids, to help disabled kids.  This is a woman who has shown over and over again in her career that she will elevate this conversation but, more importantly, she will get things done so all Americans can prosper and grow.
