16. A few notes about O'Malley's progressive platform.
Thu Apr 16, 2015, 11:56 PM
Apr 2015

He's announced his opposition to the TPP and the Keystone pipeline, and his support for reinstating the Glass-Steagall Act.

Your candidate has evidently been too busy picking a logo to bother with such minor details. (If I'm wrong, and if she has taken a public position on any of these issues, I'd be delighted to learn where she stands, and I'd be humbly grateful for any links you can provide.)

Of course, O'Malley's announced platform goes far beyond those issues, but those are the first ones that occur to me where I sincerely don't know where Hillary Clinton stands.
