Wall Street! Hillary still represents corporate America. Even if she gets the nomination she needs someone on the Left to pull her farther left. I am not bashing her per se, I would vote for her vs any Republicon. We need Bernie to bring up Campaign Finance Reform and Publicly Funded Elections. We need our Representative Democracy back as opposed to politicians only representing those who supply the bulk of their campaign dollars. This is what is wrong with our country and keeps us out of step with Progressive governments. We need someone with the guts to break up the oligopolies like the big banks and the media conglomerates.
