The Democratic party is not a leftwing protest movement. It is one of two major political institutions in the U.S. It does incorporate leftwing and progressive ideology in its platform. Hillary Clinton is not a protest/revolutionary leader, she is campaigning to be the leader of a mainstream political party and the president of a diverse nation.

She is running on a continuation of Obamaism. The same Obamaism of grand bargain and RomBama care and Drone wars and bailouts. What we've got here is a failure to communicate. Clearly a certain segment of the population saw black POTUS and thought revolution*, conveniently forgetting black POTUS' original shtick of 'no red America no blue America but the United States of America!'

If you take a Hobbesian or Lockean view, political parties are created to foster stability. They may nibble around the edges but the end goal is for a comfortable, safe and peaceable living for the majority. Bernie, an independent, may have bamboozled his followers by running as a Democrat, but that's on Bernie n em.
Now if you are clamouring for a 'revolution' there's the ongoing Republican shyt show :manny:

Makes sense...Jeb!'s backers hate Trump and they have a lot of cash they were expecting to dole out to Jeb! until he totally flamed out.
Plus she is probably trying to get to that cash before Trump does now that he is over the whole "self-funding" gimmick and is looking for donations.

so her message is that she represents republican values :dead:
Jeb Bush was considered a "RINO." He had moderates behind him who were lukewarm to the social conservative agenda but backed Bush to keep a lid on the racist monkey brigade that Trump let loose. It's smart that Hillary try to pick off as many of these people as she can right now while #NeverTrump is so fervent.

theres a select group of people in this country right now that are laughing at all of us :dead:

the only people that have a stake in presidential elections are millionaires, so they buy people like hillary clinton and she throws us a few scraps :heh:
I don't care what ideology you are and don't even really care if you take the money but you can't say you'll fight something but then use it to your advantage in the greatest way possible.

This is the biggest insult to people's intelligence. She can be a flip flopping neo-lib all day, if every politician was some left wing progressive it wouldn't represent groups of people in the country.

But this type of behavior from politicians is the only issue that should be bi partisan from the Green party to the Tea party. But I guess some just want their candidate to win no matter what even if it's at the cost of issues that are dear to them being shifted due to special interest lining pockets :yeshrug:
