But, Hillary will still make a better president than any backwoods fuck the poor Republican.
And if she were to win, she would still have Warren and Sanders to keep pressure on her not to cave in to the right.
But ultimately we cannot afford anymore corporate welfare and corporate blackmail waged by the right that has forced even Dems to play that game
Well I would argue that Obama and Hilary are not truly left wing politicians. By international standards I would say they are centrists or moderate right wingers.
Yes they are left, but just like parents, they deal with bratty children in the candy Isle, they shove the candy down their throats just to shut them up so they don't completely burn down the entire store.
But that is also a result of republican gerrymandering an Democratic voter apathy year after year which has forced our side to play more of their game rather than punching back.
The only way to stop and reverse the GOP grip is to raise our voices everywhere everyday and beat them at the polls.
