SEIU’S ANNA BURGER: “We will elect the next president of the United States.”

Burger just said only “one Republican” has offered to participate in the SEIU’s “Walk a Day in My Shoes” program, in which politicians work a day with a SEIU member nurse, custodian, home health care worker, or teacher. That Republican is Mike Huckabee, whose name was greeted with a mix of cheers and boos.
