Would You Vote For Hillary?

[Ken Burch]

35. Although we do have a right to expect, AND DEMAND,

That no Democratic president ever again be as far to the right as Bill Clinton was. That eight years was the "too far" point. If Clinton had somehow managed to lose to Dole in '96, nothing important at all would have changed...and it is intolerable to ever have to say that about a Democratic president.

Bare minimum requirements for a Democratic president should be:

1)no lost ground for workers.
2)no lost ground for the poor.
3)no lost ground for women.
4)no lost ground for LGBTQ people.

If we can't count on those four things(and we're just talking about "no lost ground"...not EVEN talking about gains at all), it's NOT a Democratic administration, and we're conceding the idea that we have no right to expect anything from anyone we elect.

And the voters were never actually demanding that a Democratic president throw ALL of those groups under the bus. Only the big donors did.
