Another top issue, is the money in Politics.
Hillary had no choice but to say she opposes it.
But people don't trust campaign rhetoric when it doesn't match a candidates history.
I guess they think we don't pay attention, but they could not be more wrong.
When their greed led to the collapse of the economy they drew attention to it and polls show that the people are ANGRY.
What they don't get is that while the Billionaires 'recovered', most of the VICTIMS, ordinary people who lost their jobs and homes, have not.
And many never will recover what was taken from them.
That is why Bernie is resonating so well. He speaks for MILLIONS of people. If he Establishment were in touch with the people they would not be so 'puzzled' by all this.
But they are not, they believe they know everything, they know what is good for everyone, and they are a class unto themselves with the hangers on from the media, the political operatives like vultures hoping to get their hands on some of that money.
It will be interesting, but they will stop at nothing to stop the People and Bernie, NOTHING. They have so much to lose.
