2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumIowa City Press-Citizen Writers Group: Clinton NO Progressive Candidate
If you have supported progressive Democrats in the past and you like Elizabeth Warrens positions on issues, why would you support Hillary Clinton? Unless you want a woman President so badly that this desire outweighs any other considerations. If you favor overturning Citizens United, believing that money has corrupted our government to the point that it is an oligarchy instead of a democracy, why support Hillary Clinton?
On foreign policy matters, Clinton is a neoconservative. A vote for her is a vote for the status quo: continuing war, international intervention, hypocritical moralizing, and the killing of innocents abroad. Alternet reports that billions have been given to the Clinton Foundation by Saudi Arabia and defense contractors like Boeing and Lockheed. She supports the military-industrial complex. Clinton used racial strategies to attempt to defeat Obama in the 2008 primary. Black Lives Matter President Daunasia Yancey, referred to Clinton's racial justice record as "abysmal." The Huffington Post has reported that GEO Group and Corrections Corporation of America, which build and run private prisons, gave more than $125,000 to a political action committee set up for Clinton. The privatization of mass incarceration must end; but it will not stop as long as profit is to be made by putting people in prison, a majority of them black or poor.
~snip~
A significant part of Clinton's funding comes from Citigroup, JP Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, the ones who were instrumental in causing the 2008 financial crash and near-depression. These financial groups caused massive unemployment and were largely responsible for the collapse of home mortgages, forcing many people into homelessness. Clinton says that "maybe" these big banks need to be broken up or be more tightly regulated, while Sanders continuously cites these financial interests as the source of much of the country's still-depressed economy and supports strong regulation of the banking and investment industries. Clinton has taken money from Rupert Murdoch, attended social functions with billionaires like Donald Trump, and has spoken many times on behalf of corporate agribusinesses such as Monsanto, a company that has done more to poison the earth and its inhabitants than almost any other.

Oftentimes, so-called click farms are based out of developing countries and employ legions of low-paid workers to create fake Facebook profiles and then like the pages of clients. Clinton has seen strong growth over the last several weeks in followers in developing countries. To cite a single example, her followers in Myanmar tripled, to 18,150.

As for me and my wife? I've worked for the Government for 25 years; my wife is a successful lawyer who works for responsible clients. We chose to under-pay for housing in our early years so we could afford a nice house later; we chose not to have children; and we invest our available funds responsibly to build a nest-egg.

(9,214 posts)dreamnightwind
(4,775 posts)at least the way I define it. It isn't that they don't learn, or that they fail, it's that they are working for corporate goals instead of populist ones, and corporate goals are not furthered by supporting someone like Sanders.
For a long time I clung to the belief that they just thought they needed big business money to win elections, and would rather enact progressive policies and elect progressive leaders if it was practical.
This late in the game, however, it is completely obvious that they are literally not on our side, they oppose what we believe, they make their money from corporate sources and have fully bought into the worldview sold by DLC-PPI-Third Way/No Labels corporate institutions. It is actually very similar to the worldview promoted by the Kochs and the AEI-Heritage people, practically indistinguishable in the areas of economic policy and foreign policy.
They aren't fools, and they are no longer fooling as many of the electorate.
The biggest failure, in their eyes, IMHO, is not for Trump or another Bush to be elected, it is for Sanders to be elected. Pretty much every other candidate, for them, means businss as usual continues unabated, and we know from hard experience who benefits from that.
I'm just continuing this conversation, not directing this at you really, but at anyone reading the thread. I'm so sick of people like the Clintons and even Obama being presented to us as agents of progressive change, it's wrong and needs to be countered until it stops happening.
Obama was a decent centrist corporatist whose steady hand in troubled waters was probably better than a hair-on-fire RW'er, but didn't approach, nor even articulate, the reforms we thought we elected him to implement as the change agent he campaigned to be.
Now they want more of the same, in fact they want the person we rejected for Obama's change platform, and they want us to think we're supporting a progressive by supporting Clinton. We actually have an excellent progressive candidate who can win the general election, and we need to support him with everything we can muster.

Therefore Hillary supporters think Hillary must be progressive since she shares organizational and philosophical ties with these misnamed organizations.

"""Sanders is owned by the Gun industry by your reasoning"""
Bernie has said that he represents the entire state of Vermont - not just those who are afraid of guns.
I WAS afraid of guns, though I always thought that the physics was fascinating, just like my old "Bangsite Cannon" that I had when I was a kid. I was brought up in a home that was very much anti-gun, we were allowed bow and arrows though... But since I moved from the crowded California coast, S.F. and Monterey, to the Sierra foothills and have 5 beautiful acres with coyotes, bears, trout, bobcats, jack-rabbits ( none of which I would attempt to kill) I asked myself if I really wanted to remain afraid of guns - nope. So I learned a new skill in handling rifles and shotguns. I am no longer afraid of legally owned long-guns and am a better person for it. Handguns should just be ILLEGAL everywhere IMO.

Conventional Arms Transfer Policy: Advancing American National Security Through Security Cooperation
Remarks
Gregory M. Kausner
Deputy Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Political-Military Affairs
Remarks to IISS
Washington, DC
April 23, 2014
The Arms Sale Process
Some refer to our arms transfer decision-making process as onerous, inflexible, and arcane. There is no question; it is not perfect. As the policy states, we will continue to pursue efforts to streamline security cooperation. The deliberate review of U.S. arms transfers, however, is an affirmation of how seriously we take this business.
Both the Departments of State and Defense assess the policy and technical impacts of each and every transfer. The U.S. Congress plays a vital oversight role as well. All major arms transfers require us to notify Congress, and an extensive consultation process exists to ensure that congressional concerns are addressed.
Now, we often hear the question do you ever reject an arms transfer? Although we do not advertise such decisions, we reject sales all the time. ( meaning the State Dept!)
When we decide to move forward with a transfer, however, transparency remains a hallmark of the CAT policy in fact, our major Foreign Military Sales are posted upon notification to Congress on the public website of the Defense Security Cooperation Agency, and the texts of both Foreign Military Sales and Direct Commercial Sales notifications are published in the Federal Register.
Conclusion
We recognize the challenges associated with U.S. arms transfers. Across the interagency, we work day in and day out to ensure transfers are carefully considered, and made or denied for the right reasons that promote American security and reflect American values.
Each delivery of U.S. security assistance sends a message to our friends and foes. It is an act of support and trust for our partners and allies. It provides them the capabilities to defend themselves, and to provide for the stability of their region.
The advantages of security assistance as both a complement to, and a substitute for, U.S. boots on the ground are clear and compelling. As someone who works these issues every day, however, I will be the first to tell you that the decision to train or equip a foreign partner is not always an easy one. Yet we cannot simply turn our back on the complexities of building partner capacity. To do so would open the door for other suppliers and actors. It would hamper our allies efforts to work with us on common security issues. It would distance us from our partners.
It would disadvantage the very industry on which we rely for our technological security capabilities and advantage. It would take away our voice in circumstances where it might matter the most.
So, we transfer arms with our eyes wide open, with laws, regulation, and policy designed to reflect caution, but also shaped to ensure that our security policy supports, and reinforces, our foreign policy. And we see results every day, from coalition operations against shared threats, to multinational training exercises, to the conversations that occur between American troops and foreign partners partners who came here for training and left here as friends. We will remain cautious in using arms transfers as a tool of foreign policy, but we should never forget that our national security is in many ways dependent upon, and advanced as a result of, our security cooperation.
Thank you.

Again, please answer the question I posed. How is being for H-1B program expansion as she has been clearly in the past not the position of a corporatist? For many here, it clearly puts her against the American worker taking a stance for rich friends of hers on that program.

You just make the case for many of us here that in order to follow Hillary, your mind isn't as in gear as the minds of the rest of us are and that perhaps that is typical of Hillary followers (which is likely not the case as many here are able to speak well). Normally I'm not too critical in that regard, but you seem to make a point of criticizing the rest of us heavily, and not being very descriptive in your criticisms towards us which really in just about all of your threads has interacting with you just devolve in to a name calling exercise. You STILL have NOT explained SPECIFICALLY what is wrong with socialism. You only demonstrate that you have the capacity that many right wingers have of just echoing it as an expletive that means NOTHING to those of us who want some real change in this country, who look at how democratic socialism is being practiced in places like Sweden where they have some of the happiest people on earth, and where if you show Americans bar charts showing their more balanced wealth divide versus our extreme wealth divide, most Americans interviewed for such studies choose Sweden as the society they'd rather have than even a less extreme divide they are shown than what we actually have in this country.
I'm only taking issue with YOUR ATTEMPT at propaganda against Sanders by saying Americans won't vote for a socialist as if that is a reason to vote for Hillary.

dpatbrown
(368 posts)Super argument, especially "if she was a man". I think that the Clinton folks, are simply not even "liberal". Sanders is head and shoulders above Clinton. It should be no contest, but compared with the media coverage that Obama got in 07, Sanders is losing out on a lot of support, but it will come. I talk up Sanders all over town, and I just say, go listen to him on the net. That always wins them over. I wouldn't be surprised if Sanders receives Warren's endorsement before Feb 1st. A huge boost to one, and a huge disappointment to another.

(14,164 posts)That person would most exemplify Elizabeth Warren.
So...Elizabeth vs. Hillary.
I'll bet Hillary was breathing a big sigh of relief when Warren finally officially decided not to run. Without that gender card to play, I have a feeling many women, and also many forward thinking men, would at least waver on who they would support. I myself would love to see a female President at last, someday. Just like it was a milestone to have the first AA President. Because even if nothing else, it is a symbol, a new zietgiest, and a transformative event in the social consciousness whether the far right baggers like it or not. Just like marijuana legalzation, or gay marriage legalization, once it actually exists it becomes normalized. By that I mean normalized in the minds of conservatives who before that could never imagine it.
I am not trying to insult the intelligence of women Hillary supporters, I realize it is not as simple as that. I am just saying that gender must carry at least some weight with many Democratic voting women. Whether this is PC to say that or not, I think it is a fact. So I'd like to see how much the support would shift if we had had two female front runners. One a staunch advocate of stricter Wall Street regulation, and one beholden to them by massive campaign contributions.
