I DON'T Trust Hillary [View all]

Quite frankly, I don't believe her as well. She is a confirmed liar to many of her Democratic supporters ( on more than one occasion), that even many DU Hillary supporters on this board can't deny.

Here is a snip from yesterday's post that read as follows:

"...In the end, she will betray them or she will betray us. It’s pretty sad that a fundamental component of your campaign is an admission you’re lying to someone else. I promise I’ll betray them and not you..."
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=815703

Question:

1/ Would any DU members believe Marco, Ted or Jeb if they promised us they wouldn't be influenced by all the Koch & Adelson, WallStreet/Banks & big corporate money donations? Does anyone here honestly believe that they would turn their backs on their donors and fight for us once they are elected?

YES or NO?

2/ Are we right to distrust anyone who makes such promises to us that they would never be influenced by such donations, even if that person was a Democrat who is promising to betray them and not us?

YES or NO?
