I think Michelle Obama would be a brilliant choice but I think the Republicans would behave exactly as they did with her husband. As long as big money speaks, true reforms aren't possible.
Good! You may, or may not enjoy this thread with today's upload about "their" work visas and restricting export of lumbar to "us". We have an America First president, even it it is, them. Eh. http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/is-it-true-part-deux.495478/
Oh, God. Should be a life long ban from politics for anyone carrying the surname "Clinton" until - at least - year 3045.
I saw today where she may run for mayor of NYC. She is wanting to run for a 3rd time for president, OR, she needs to be in a position where she can pay back the 1.2 billion her rich donors gave her for this last campaign. She needs to understand that americans, except people like her, do not want her close to the oval office.
She literally lost to Donald Trump, the easiest candidate to beat ever. Today while Trump has a -5% job net approval rating Hillary has a -15% favorability rating. We need a stronger candidate like Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden, or Bernie Sanders. Bernie has a 24% net favorability, Warren a 4%, and Biden is at 24%. A study found that only 25% of Hillary ads were about the issues and the rest were personal attacks, while Trump put forth an economic vision that was inspirational to his followers.
We can count on liberals to enact measures which help the PEOPLE. We can count on conservatives to enact policies which benefit only corporations and the rich. This is consistently true. How non-billionaires are duped into voting for the people who act against their interests... is beyond me. But then I'm intelligent, well-educated, and sane. Emphasis on sane.
I admire Hillary for remaining in politics despite the endless crap thrown at her by the right. Sexist and every other imaginable insult, none of it based on reality or any facts. Hillary has been on the receiving end of what is ugliest about this country: the white-right bigots! Those who support corporate hegemony over democracy, the billionaires over the middle class. And then they call Hillary an arrogant elite? LOL!!! Hillary has caused the Right to express almost as much sexism over her as they have racism over Obama! LOL... they're showing their true "colors"
You'd have to be lost in the Faux News bubble of reality to have to ask this. Minimum wage! 8-hr day! 40-hr week! Occupational safety! Anti-discrimination laws! Environmental protection! (sniff the air in L.A... MUCH better than in the 70's) While since 1981 the GOP has, among many other bad things: drastically reduced medical research funding trashed the middle class enabled corporate hegemony reduced environmental protection ignored the ongoing effects of racism removed most taxes on the super-rich while increasing the financial burden on the poor and middle class ignored the inner city ignored al Qaeda until 9-11 run us deeply into debt for a war based on lies encouraged white racism and so much more... but I haven't got all day
As a "lost soul", I guess I need to ask a few more questions related to the fantastic advancements, over the past 8 years, in the measures you listed: So you're OK with Obama turning his cheek to millions of good middle class jobs being off shored or outsourced during his tenure. And while the $15 minimum wage sounds wonderful, it's already accelerating job losses through small business staff reductions and automation. As far a racism, you are aware that there is more animosity between different races than there has been in recent history. And as far as inner cities, they have become increasing dangerous places to be. Of course, you're more than aware of what's happened in Chicago. There is so much more.... but I haven't got all day.
More Hillary? Are you kidding? She was ancient during this last election and is not getting any younger, or smarter. The lady is a has been. If she was to run again no one would vote for her. No one should have voted for her during the last election.
She'll be too old and sick by then. Won't be long till she has another stroke---not that liberals care that their leaders typically only have half a brain.
go look up how much she makes per speech. Then look up the clinton foumdation and the percentage of "donations" that they spend on charitable causes. All sorts of crap...they used the foundation to bankroll chelseas wedding. Shes the epitome of an elitist.
