In answering a question from Spanish-speaking Ernestina Escobar, who was introduced as “someone in our audience who has experienced the American dream.” Dean responded: “You would have prescription benefits if you moved to Vermont, because a third of all our people, especially at your income level, are eligible for prescription benefits without help from the federal government.” She never mentioned her financial situation.
Imagine if a white, preppy Park Avenue Republican had made this gaffe?
