In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton's first 2016 rally set for June 13 [View all]freshwest
(53,661 posts)98. Me, too. HRC's replies are too complicated for most people. Sanders is easy to understand. If she is
the nominee, she needs to be able to enunciate her views in the vernacular of the public.
In any case, if it's O'Malley, HRC, Bernie or someone else that wins the primary, they must be able to cut through the billions of dollars of propaganda.
That RW machine is not waiting for the general election season to fill the ears of the gullible and work upon their emotions. As Thom Hartmann explained, and as Bernie explained, and HRC explained in nineties, there really is a machine that is well funded, beyond the dreams of any Dem, and does nothing but work to RF only Democrats.
It's been growing since the fifties. It's part of the national conciousness of Americans, repeated so often that their 'gut' tell them it's all true, but it's still a lie. Just one that people have difficulty seeing through.
I really look forward to a big field of condidates in the debates and hope they get away from that lousy President debate corporations format. And letting the corporate media ask the questions. I don't believe a thing they say and they're biased.

Seriously, whoop-dee-fuckin-doo. Can hardly wait to hear Hillary's list of poll-tested positions she's reversed herself on. Go Bernie!

Possible nominee at this point. It's not over until it's over. Remember how long it took in 2008?

There's no reason I know of to think one side is disproportionately hiding its opinions.

No, they won't. She is the antithesis of the principles the left hold dear.

Well, it certainly makes her look more like a woman of the people than a flying in a private jet!

Actually, the Secret Service's idea. I don't know Sanders or O'Malley are using. Don't kid yourself,

I just think the van is a marketing ploy-thet all do it though. Selling the President to us.

Did you read the specs? Is 'The Beast' a marketing tool to prevent the murder of Obama?

The nicest thing I can say about Hillary is she's a dino. Todays Dems are more liberal than ever.
