The Clinton Wing

For me, this is the really important question:

Thinking only about the 99%, over the past 20 years, the Clinton wing of the Democratic Party...

3. The Clintons do not run the party.

They have great influence but they don't control it.

6. Thinking from about the 1980s - of the 99%, money has run both parties and still does.

Wall Street has controlled both parties at least since the 1980s (some would say the 1960s or since the invention of the stock market).

Now, in 2015, without real regulations or oversight - the elite control both parties and all three branches of government. It's like someone else here pointed out, the non-governing elite control the governing elite.

Maybe it has always been that way.
