Voted Sanders in the primary. Would be sad it came down to those two for a second time but I would support Clinton. I think people underestimate the Trump fatigue that will most likely be present by 2020. Also Sanders will be 78, he already looks extremely old. Clinton had detailed policy, while Sanders had ideas backed up by a "revolution". I am sick of populism
The policy statement is completely incorrect & I am shocked by the ignorance of the poeple who believe this ridiculous narrative of Clinton's donors controlled Media.
Let us look at examples -
College Affordability - Wall Street Speculation tax - 0.5% tax on stocks, 0.1% on bonds, 0.005% on derivatives, estimated to raise 332B $ odd based on economists Heintz & Pollins research on this area.
Paid Leave - Bernie supports the 2$ a week paid leave introduced by Gillibrand & Senate leaders. Hillary said she supports Paid leave but refused to support the Senate Bill & would look at "all options".
Social Security - Eliminate the cap on taxable income (Bernie) - A proposal Obama supported too. And it would not only make SS solvent but will expand it. HRC - I will expand but I will "look at all options" & won't commit now.
Infra - Bernie's 100B $ a year through corporate loopholes was based on Congressional Research office's data.
Climate Change - Bernie proposed a Carbon Tax. What was Hillary's plan? Cap n Trade or Carbon Tax? No1 even knows "I will look at all options' !
In recent history, Bernie was the best in detailed policy issues although he was not as articulate in explaining it in details as he should have been. But the entire Dem primary were about his ideas.
HRC had no thought out policy positions & never committed & presented detailed plans but the media painted a false narrative & people lapped it up.
For example, do you want to talk about Bernie's Keep our promises Act which would repeal loopholes of estate taxes & raise 29 B $ in 10 years through 2 key changes -
