Will Hillary be as kind to banksters as Bill was?

Unfortunately, yes.

In the interview, Geithner recalls something that Bill Clinton once told him:

At another point, he cheerfully relayed a story that also appears in his book about the time he sought advice from Bill Clinton on how to pursue a more populist strategy: “You could take Lloyd Blankfein into a dark alley,” Clinton said, “and slit his throat, and it would satisfy them for about two days. Then the blood lust would rise again.”

That's how Bill Clinton views you for thinking that the banks should have faced accountability for wrecking the global economy and numerous people's lives.

And Hillary probably views you no differently than Bill does:

But Clinton offered a message that the collected plutocrats found reassuring, according to accounts offered by several attendees, declaring that the banker-bashing so popular within both political parties was unproductive and indeed foolish. Striking a soothing note on the global financial crisis, she told the audience, in effect: We all got into this mess together, and we’re all going to have to work together to get out of it. What the bankers heard her to say was just what they would hope for from a prospective presidential candidate: Beating up the finance industry isn’t going to improve the economy—it needs to stop.

1. "Hillary probably"... As in, you got NUTTIN'

Bill will always rather make nice and I'm sure she did learn that from him. But the climate is different now. Assuming WITH NO EVIDENCE that the reaction will be the same is, I dunno, ignorant? Foolish? FOX-like?

4. Clinton busted her ass as SoS, more traveled than any other.

More diplomatic than any other. Yet she'll still get the same BS "shrill evil lying" tripe that we'll just have to come to accept. I don't think she got the whole "make nice, be diplomatic" stuff from Bill, I think it comes to her naturally, but as a woman she has to endure the stereotypes.

2. Of course she will but it won't matter if she isn't president

3. No, Clinton will run on a pro-woman platform.

She will do everything to distance herself from Bill's self-admitted bad policies.

To say that she will "follow William" is a farce, and actually, is just more of questioning Clinton's integrity. The same argument will be used against her by both the left and right once she announces she is running. "An HRC presidency will be Bill Clinton 2.0."

It will ultimately prove wrong and we're going to like HRC as President. Bank on it.

Bookmark this post. You're wrong.

5. Bill was nice to them, Barack is VERY nice to them and Hillary will be very nice to them too

it is who they are.

If we want candidates who will be mean to the banksters we need to stop voting for and supporting those who are nice to them.

6. Yep.

No matter how many frequent flyer miles a candidate has racked up.
