Thing is rick, Hillary’s policies and supposed future direction would have been considered Republican ideas 25 years ago. But due to AM radio, Fox, blogs, and other extremely right wing noise makers, the US body politic has been pulled very much to the right. So Hillary seems to be a rightist in her own right, by lefties.------Sorry.
But you already knew that.
Perhaps the true lefty- Bernie- could be elected to POTUS. I’m not counting on that--mainly due to his age. Hillary is six years his junior if memory serves. Also Bernie promises stuff that simply will not, nor cannot. get through today’s congress. Single payer, free college, Wall Street eviscerated, higher federal minimum wage etc. That sounds appealing to many- but simply won’t happen unless Santa comes to town. Or many more Democrats get elected to congress this November
Bernie has put a bug in the ear of many. Perhaps-down the road-some of his ideas might come to fruition. Assuming the US doesn’t come apart at the seams before then.......Then there is the coming of the robots to replace most labor. But that is a discussion for another thread.
