4. I believe A LOT of what we see in D.C. is carefully managed/scripted theater.

Big corporations literally write our bills.

Hillary was always going to do quite well in standing up to the line of questioning that was presented. So much of it was ridiculous. Hillary will always present herself as cool, calm, and collected. Poised. And, this gives the corporate media the opportunity to fawn over how "presidential" Hillary appears to be. A golden opportunity to attempt to get others to put style over substance. The whole Benghazi spectacle has been ridiculous. Just about every Democrat knows this. Since Hillary continues to be harassed over something so ridiculous it could make her a sympathetic person to some. This very series of events could end up manipulating some people to support Hillary.

Don't we always rally when the Republicans are unfairly attacking the Clintons? Don't the corporate powers-that-be know this? Manufacturing consent and manipulating the public is an art form. Wealthy interests know exactly what they are doing. I hope they fail this time.
