"It will be fascinating to see how (Hillary) incorporates the growing progressive economic 'equity' part of the Democratic Party that Bernie has brilliantly organized and mobilized."
She also complains that Bernie has been too consistent in his message from many years ago, while in the same breath saying that his message is more relevant now. (WHAAAAA???) As if that weren't enough, she admits how she jumps from candidate to candidate with the frequency of a cheap ham radio, until somehow she is 'magnetized'. She also notes Hillary is Center-left, but later says she's actually a Progressive. Oh, there's more. She basically says 'who cares about a few bucks when it comes to minimum wage' by dismissing the difference between 12 and 15 dollars an hour for hard working Americans.
Finally, clip ends with her excitement of carving up the spoils of the Primary war (ie. Bernie supporters)
"I have tremendous respect for the movement he's built, for the secular revival, for the political/social movement that he's built, and I have lots of questions about how that energy can be captured in the going-forward basis."

(24,010 posts)She could start by speaking English.
"in the going-forward basis" is worthy of George Orwell. (See his "Politics and the English Language"--a treatise against political bullshit language.)
SECONDLY, she could resign whatever bullshit job she is doing and do something useful for humanity. Feed the poor. Visit the imprisoned. You know, all those people Hillary Clinton shat upon, time and again. Do some good, Ms. Flapdoodle!
THIRDLY, we could throw her out!
Who is she, by the way? I don't want to listen to this crapola to find out.

Re: our support, from The Matrix Revolutions..
'They say it cannot be..taken. It can only be GIVEN.'
If she wants my support she can spend her first year in Office passing Publicly-funded elections and putting her bankster and BFEE friends in prison. Short of that, and she gets NOTHING.

Just don't let her read you any of her poetry.
An example (Warning: do not read this):
Oh freddled gruntbuggly,
Thy micturations are to me,
As plurdled gabbleblotchits,
On a lurgid bee,
That mordiously hath blurted out,
Its earted jurtles,
Into a rancid festering confectious organ squealer. [drowned out by moaning and screaming]
Now the jurpling slayjid agrocrustles,
Are slurping hagrilly up the axlegrurts,
And living glupules frart and slipulate,
Like jowling meated liverslime,
Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turling dromes,
And hooptiously drangle me,
With crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon,
See if I don't.

Torie Osborn Crashes the Party
The spirited California Assembly candidate battles the Democratic establishment.
..."After helping to launch this magazine as a founding staff member in the mid-1970s, she played leadership roles in the National Organization for Women, a pioneering Los Angeles clinic for HIV/AIDS sufferers, and the national Gay and Lesbian Task Force that mobilized hundreds of thousands of civil rights marchers in Washington in 1993. While serving as director of Liberty Hill Foundation, and later with United Way, she helped channel millions of dollars from well-heeled Hollywooders into Los Angeles neighborhood projects dealing with gang violence, low-income housing, and environmental issues. Osborns latest work, with California Calls, has focused on boosting voter registration in the state and building a coalition to end loopholes for giant corporate property owners and the requirement of a two-thirds supermajority vote by legislators to increase taxes.....
http://supervisorkuehl.com/project/torie-osborn/
Torie has guided some of the nations most effective non-profit organizations as they tackled tremendous challenges including the AIDS crisis, LGBT rights and economic justice. She served as Deputy Mayor for Neighborhood and Community Services for Los Angeles Mayor Antonio R. Villaraigosa, overseeing the Mayors field and civic engagement programs, and immigration reform strategy, and also spent two years as a senior policy advisor to the Mayor on homelessness, poverty, and economic development. She co-founded Mayor Villaraigosas Office of Strategic Partnership, a national model for social innovation through collaboration between philanthropy and local government. Torie was executive director of the Liberty Hill Foundation, one of the nations most admired social-change foundations, and of the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center at the height of the AIDS epidemic, as well as serving at the helm of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force in Washington, D.C. She has worked on governance and fiscal reform with California Calls, a statewide community organizing network increasing voter participation by young people, people of color and immigrants. Torie is known nationally for her community-organizing approach to solving problems and for being at the leading edge of major fights for social justice for four decades.

(24,010 posts)That was a riff off of her arrogant assumption that she can co-opt this political revolution and can't wait to get her hands on us. I mean, THAT is arrogant--no matter what else she's done. Too much influence from the Goldman Sachs candidate? It rubs off?
Also, there are an awful lot of establishment "players" with great resumes who have ended up being advocates for THE most corrupt presidential candidate that I have seen in my lifetime, and who may be the most corrupt in the history of democracy. Anyone who can be blind to Clinton's vast corruption is not a reliable leader in my opinion. Anyone who could look just at the Clinton Foundation/Saudi arms deal and say, "I support that," either entirely lacks good judgement, or is bought and paid for, or got caught up in the Clinton net early and can't get out. A lot of people have done a lot of good things but are now in one of those three conditions, in my view. Clinton's corruption is insupportable. I will never again trust ANY leader who supports it.

Equinox Moon
(6,344 posts)IMO:
1) She speaks in the same 'round' talking as HRC, which can't be understood. It is the dog head-tilt... huh?
2) She speaks all the 'right' talking points to get HRC elected, yet lacks true grounding in meaning. The talking points are there, but my concern is they lack heart and soul.
3) She wants to know how to capture the energy of Bernie's movement? If you have to ask that question, you are veeeerrry dis-connected. And again, this woman is representing HRC well.
If one does not understand the energy of Bernie's movement that means you do not hold the understanding, conviction, heart and soul of "WE THE PEOPLE". That is really a HUGE gap between the two campaigns.
"I" verses "WE". Until HRC learns this, the energy of the Nation will not be able to join her.
