title:  Rabbi Michael Lerner DESTROYS Trump In Brilliant Speech At Ali Funeral (VIDEO)
text: When we lost boxing legend Mohammed Ali this week, we lost more than an athlete. We lost a humanitarian, a man who was a great example to people all over the world of what being a leader and an all around decent human being means. Therefore, it is only fitting that his public funeral be a place to remind everyone what this great man was about, and what we as people should   and should not   aspire to be. That is just what Rabbi Michael Lerner did in a speech that brought the house down at Ali s funeral on Friday.Lerner took to the stage and declared that he was there as a  representative of American Jews.  After that, he turned his attentions to GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump. Without mentioning the orange buffoon by name, Lerner said: We will not tolerate politicians or anyone else putting down Muslims and blaming Muslims for a few people. We know what it s like to be demeaned. We know what it s like to have a few people who act against the highest vision of our tradition to then be identified as the value of the entire tradition. Of course, this was a clear reference to Trump s appalling call to ban Muslims from the United States. Lerner wasn t done yet, though. He went on to trumpet the praises of a Clinton victory in November, and also insisted that we need to make the world a more equal place for all. He continued: Tell the next president of the United States that she should seek a constitutional amendment to make all national and state elections funded by Congress and the state legislatures, and all other sources of money be banned   including money from corporations, from individuals. Make it all public funding. Tell her that the way to achieve homeland security is not for us to try new ways of domination. The strategy of domination of The world of  the other  to get security has been tried for the last 10,000 years and it doesn t work. The way to get security is for the United States to become known as the most generous and caring country in the world, not the most powerful. Well said, Rabbi Lerner. This speech is something everyone needs to hear, because you are right on the money in every way.
