Hillary Clinton
In reply to the discussion: Nina Turner compares the support Hillary has among Congress and groups to the support of slavery [View all]Peace Patriot
(24,010 posts)6. I thought Nina Turner was great! Strong, clear, kick-ass advocate for Sanders!
Barney was just bloviating. Not convincing at all.
Turner was talking about a Congress WITH AN 8% APPROVAL RATING. And the majority of the Democratic corporate congressional critters support Clinton. No surprise there. Slavery also had majorities of corrupt congress critters at one time. Perfectly apt analogy. We are now all slaves to the Wall Street banksters and transglobal corporations that call all the shots in Washington DC. Is it right? NO! They buy elections and congress critters. Is it right? NO! No surprise at all that their congress critters would be behind the Goldman Sachs candidate.

Thanks for the link. I see Sanders never really thought about how he would break up the banks.

I don't see how Nina helps BS. She lost her own race for SoS in OH, and BS lost the primary there.
