So a progressive writer makes the case against Clinton.... but of course he supports The Bern, not Trump. But Bernie is still too far left for many Dems.
Not a bad article really.....
What will Philly bring? It was supposed to be the Reps who were in utter chaos, and they've had their moments for sure, but Philly is going to be very interesting indeed. Even with all the insider elite party bias and support of Clinton will she get the preordained Dem crown she feels she deserves?
The Deeper Reason Many Intelligent Progressives and Independents Will Not Support Hillary Clinton
Corporate media pundits who write for publications supporting Clinton (I’m looking at you, New York Times, CNN, NPR, and MSNBC) shrug off these numbers as the simple product of longstanding attacks on her credibility by her opponents. This is exactly the kind of nonchalant dismissiveness and shoddy journalism that doesn’t wash with intelligent progressives and independents anymore. There are many, many politicians who have been in the public eye for decades; only a handful are seen to be as dishonest as Hillary Clinton.
It’s not rocket science. The unbiased history shows that she does lie and obfuscate more frequently than other politicians, and she has changed her policy positions more often than most.
Intelligent voters notice this. Clinton rarely seems to be speaking her mind. She appears to calculate before speaking what specific words she should use to kill off a line of questioning, rather than engage in open discussion.
Barack Obama once said, “Hillary Clinton will say anything, and change nothing.” These words resonated with voters in 2008, and they resonate again now.
