Hillary is divisive. She is no friend of the working people of this country, or women, or the poor, she is just taking advantage of many failures of the US corporate media- and the subsequent fact that too many (of both parties) but specifically it seems many of the Democratic Party's good people who are less news aware - she is taking advantage of their ignorance on issues like trade deals (they wont be good for practically any of us, nor will they create jobs) She cultivated an illusiuon of inevitability - and pretended to be things she's not.
if she were to tell Democrats her real agenda, most would not vote for her.
the poorest Americans likely are the ones who will be hurt by her policies the most.
Why is she the way she is? because she wants to prevent the democratic process which is inherently one that adapts and CHANGES.
We should not blindly lock our policy in with trade deals- preserve BAD business models AT ANY COST. For example, preserve the bad health care system, BY THROWING OUT THE DOCTORS AND NURSES who have done their best to keep Americans healthy DESPITE bad policy, and replacing them with the doctors and nurses who are desperately needed in the developing world. And paying them minimum wage .
They have been promising other countries that for 20 years, ever since Bill Clinton was president. That's why our own health care system is still SO screwed up, to provide a fake, avoidable "crisis" to justify this.
The same goes for education.
