But Hillary has a story to tell...

She has experience. Foreign policy experience as well as US Senator from New York. She was also the First Lady for eight years.

But voters are not looking for experience. Experience in a corrupt establishment is not worth very much. And that is how people see it, unfortunately.

I feel sorry for Hillary.

She has all the qualifications to be President, but her timing and message are not in tune with what the people are looking for. Otherwise, she is a very attractive candidate.

Democratic Party voters do not hold Wall Street or the Big Banks in high regard. They are another accident just waiting to happen. Again.

Democratic Party voters see workers that have been screwed for the last thirty years, in that they have not shared in the wealth of the production in this country. Greed is rampant. Jobs have left our shores and left our workers, for the glitter of low wages and high profits in other countries.

Regardless how this election turns out - if Bernie is the nominee or if Hillary is the nominee - the Democratic Party has to understand the people will only put up with so much bullshit before they begin to fight back. They cannot serve two masters. They cannot be a Party that supports the corporations and also, supports the people. That is what is happening today, in my opinion.

That's how she's running her campaign, as if she's on a job interview where the candidate with the most impressive work history (whether real or exaggerated) wins.

Bernie is a leader. He has a strong message people are rallying around, forged in years of dedication and truth. He is inspiring us to believe that we can work together to change the current system.

As I've said so many times before, it's not about him. He's just showing us what's possible, he's showing us that we are powerful.

Hillary, no matter what she says, what she does, will never be able to do that.
