But I wanted to address the candidate's actual stances rather than what has been assumed here. To me, it looks like they are both talking about economic issues. I don't see HRC championing civil rights in her platform, yet I have been assured that she will be a warrior for civil rights while Sanders only cares about economics. And while it is true that his platform is very focused on economic issues, so is Clinton's. That is the zeitgeist right now and for those who are economically challenged, of all ethnicities, those issues are important too. It is only the comfortable that would deny they exist.

Well, she is free to 'lay low' if that's what she feels she has to do. It probably would have been sabrina 1 May 2015 #6

I am confused by it as well BrotherIvan May 2015 #7
