oppressed have to navigate, while Sanders plans ignored the unlevel playing field, showing us how his policies would not be better for economic equality that Clinton's policies. That is actuality, Clinton's economic plans were more progressive.

So, I disagree that conversation has not been had and that HRC people are not concerned with economic inequality.

And yet it is structured so that the responder must pick a "winner." Perhaps the problem is Squinch Jul 2016 #25
