So Hillary Clinton plans to:

End the US bombing in Iraq and Syria.
Because that's an action Hillary's supporters enthusiastically endorse.

Raise taxes on citizens making over $90,000 a year, while lowering taxes on middle class earners who earn less.
Because that's an action Hillary's supporters enthusiastically endorse.

Institute a government guaranteed universal medical plan for all citizens, regardless of income or lack of income (so including the homeless, the absolutely destitute most in need of immediate assistance and relief).
Because that's an action Hillary's supporters enthusiastically endorse.

Institute a plan for bulk buying of generic pharmaceuticals, coupling this cost-effective program with a pharmacare plan to backstop long term care plans of doctors working out of esp. the many community care clinics treating patients who're often poor and unable to afford the costs of necessary medical aid.
Because that's an action Hillary's supporters enthusiastically endorse.

Commit to deficit budgets for the first few years in office, so as to assure funding for infrastructure rebuilding.
Because that's an action Hillary's supporters enthusiastically endorse.

Commit to revamping the electoral system, to make it more fair - paying particular attention to a possible (but difficult) revamping of the archaic "first past the post" system.
Because that's an action Hillary's supporters enthusiastically endorse.

Commit to legalizing marijuana for recreational purpose within a year of attaining office.
Because that's an action Hillary's supporters enthusiastically endorse.

Well then, I'm changing my mind regarding Hillary Clinton.

He's got policy proposals. You've been shown them. You insist they do not exist.

Even better, he's introduced actual bills. You've been shown them. You insist they do not exist.
