(114,904 posts)I'm at a loss as to what you think this NPR report proves or illustrates. If you're trying to say that Hillary is just being polite and diplomatic, that's absurd. She has parted way with the President on some issues and she has managed to do it without attacking him. And she will certainly continue to do so in the future during her campaign. She's not running for a third Obama term.
You seem to have some trouble with reading comprehension. I've already informed you that she can't reveal any particulars about the TPP as it is CLASSIFIED. I don't expect her to and it's not necessary to do so to come out with a position on it.
I'm unsure what her ratings in relation to Obama's ratings have to do with this.
And this isn't about Bernie or his being a "Jew" though it is interesting how that is an issue you think is important.
Perhaps you make up your mind about candidates and issues based on polls. I do not. And Hillary hasn't led on marriage equality or immigration or the TPP or Keystone XL. That's just a fact- not something one needs a poll for.
She didn't come out for full marriage equality until after she announced. She "evolved" on the issue- until the majority of Americans were for it. She was against drivers licenses for undocumented immigrants and for sending undocumented immigrants back to their countries of origin until recently.
Political maneuvering is fine in its place, but consistently shirking from taking a position is not.
