Hilary is certainly to the right of Obama. So by European standards he's more of a centrist, but Hilary would be considered rightwing. Of course not as rightwing as the batshit crazies running for the other side, but still good for another war or two.
Get this right, because it isn't just about Hillary. There is huge difference between being on the right and beimg pulled to the right. For the past 30 years the rich and the right have ppainted the left as anti businesses and anti religion and our side keeps caving in to prove we are not those things.
Instead we should be saying fuck you to them and not allow them to control that narrative with fearomgering that has pulled politics to the ecomic right.
