Hillary Clinton does a better job than Bernie Sanders of explaining the details of his bank breakup

http://www.vox.com/2016/4/13/11415772/clinton-sanders-daily-news

There are many contrasts between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, but one important one is the different stance they take toward policy detail: Clinton really loves it, and Sanders really does not.

There's no better way to see this than to look at the respective interviews they gave to the New York Daily News editorial board.

Her capacity to look at these things from every angle and make the best decisions for all of us is at the core of why I support her.

Unquestionably.

Unqualified, my ass! I'll take her qualifications, her intellect, her trustworthiness, and, yes, her "judgement" ANY day over his.

and his plan he thinks is in Dodd Frank. Hillary has a plan for using Dodd Frank to enhance it and use the Volcker rule.

I see some SBS supporters stating that Hillary has co-opted Bernie's positions. Dare we say that co-opting appears to be equal opportunity?

Frankly, if either one has a good idea, I believe that it's great when the other one likes it too. But that's just me.

he changed to her position of restarting FICA on wages of $250,000. In fact there was a lot of chatter saying Hillary does not know $250,000 is not middle income families, she knows what middle class wages are, but wanted the tax on those earning more money. I have pointed this out some, it is a reality.
