the American people having a decent real paying jobs that can support families. Which also means she is not ceding the energy market to Russia or the Saudis of the world. You have the freaking nerve to decide who and what is a "real" Democrat? Fucking hillarious!!! Support whoever you want and continue to push your pet issues but just don't go around continue this stupid garbage from your and your ilk that you guys control the lever of the Democratic Party.

Thank God for Bill Clinton winning the presidency and for his 8 yrs.tenureship of the country. His administration oversaw the "largest expansion" of job growth in the history of your country. I don't think you understand that or understood the significance of that achievement. The far left thinks they created the modern Democratic party, well you guys did not. Most of the social programs, a.k.a big government programs were inacted in the latter part of the 20th century, namely after W.W.II. and onwards.
