In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders steps up: I am not Hillary, ‘trust me’ [View all]sabrina 1

she supports her on some of the most important issues facing the country today. But she has made references to those differences in subtle ways.
Hillary is liberal on the same three issues that are a requirement in order to be a Democrat. However, anyone who supports Wall St and War, does not really support women and minorities. It simply means they don't understand how those issues directly affect the people who will be required to make the actual sacrifices for generations to come.
I supported Kucinich also. He is way too far ahead of his time for this country at this point. We are in a very regressive phase of our history. He has vision, those in power are not interested in a better America, just what it can do for them.

Got that right. Just watch, Bernie will catch fire & leave Hilliary in the dust (dust bin of history that is).

Hillary was on the Board of Directors of WalMart 1986-1992. She was also a Goldwater Girl.

It isn't when someone began to see the light, it's always a good thing when they do.
