I also believe that the Democratic Party uses this as an issue to pander for votes. [/quote]
I guess you could call it pandering. If pandering is using very real issue position differences in order to win elections. I wouldn’t.[/quote]
SK: Aw, c’mon! My point about pandering had NO validity?
And said while a corporatist shill, and panderer, like Hillary waits in the wings?[/quote]
No, I don’t think it’s pandering. There is lots of pandering that goes on in most elections. And I have no doubt that Clinton is one of the true masters. (Though I think calling her a corporate shill isn’t accurate. She and her husband ARE the third way. That would be like calling Rand Paul a shill for his type of libertarianism.) I don’t think this issue is one of them. Particularly as compared to say…voting restrictions.[/quote]
SK: Have you heard of Teneo? How about Doug Band, President of Teneo? If you do some fairly cursory research, you’ll find some very interesting relationships, including some conflicts of interest that were so severe between the Clinton Foundation and Teneo that Bill Clinton was forced into a very public mea culpa. Both Teneo (which bills itself as a corporate strategy firm) and the Clinton Foundation share quite a few Fortune 500 clients, nearly all of which were steered to Teneo through Doug Band’s personal relationship with Bill and Hillary, so I think painting Hillary as a corporatist is completely fair.
As far as the Clinton Foundation being the third way, that’s open to interpretation. As with anything else, follow the money.
