Related: About this forumHillary is worse than Obama in this.
Especially with Bernie running, she is going to look like the Left's dream and as soon as she is elected she will bow down to our corporate overlords.
I tend to think Obama wanted to do more. Hillary knows this is all smoke and as soon as she is elected, we matter none.
On women's rights, she'll be powerful and that alone may be worth electing here but as far as the 1% go, she's their canidate as much as Jeb.

(14,195 posts)She's not not getting all this money to work against the corporate interests that gave her the money. She's going to do what it takes to get elected and then begin paying back her donors, our corporate overlords.

(5,122 posts)But Hillary is talking about income equality and it's so obvious that she will owe her donors when elected. She'll be much better than any Repub but she's going to be a corporate tool.
Maybe if she gets a second term, she'll follow her heart. I do like her but I don't think she will go against the powers that took her to office.
Bernie speaks to power and has no fear.
