I had wondered what Valerie McDonald Roberts was up to these days. It is nice to get an update on her.

Sen. Hillary Clinton

The Liberty City Democratic Club, a key LGBT political group in Pennsylvania , overwhelmingly endorsed Hillary Clinton for President with two-thirds of the members voting for her.

This club’s endorsement further demonstrates Hillary Clinton’s strong support in the LGBT community. The Liberty City endorsement follows a string of endorsements from grassroots LGBT groups like the Steel City Democrats, the Houston Stonewall Democrats, Dallas Stonewall Democrats, and 27 of the 39 members of Board the National Stonewall Democrats.
