to not put any former lobbyists or executives of companies like Monsanto, Walmart, Verizon, or financial institutions in government positions and that she NOT support going to war or sending troops unless the American people vote to do so, and she not sign any trade agreements like NAFTA, and that she not ... . If she does do any of these things, she has to resign and her VP (Elizabeth warren or Sanders) becomes president. Hillary and Bill are corporatists and we do not need either one of them back in the White House again unless they promise under threat of having to resign to be real, FDR Democrats.
