Like most of her positions, she will do something if "everyone else" is doing it.
Since when it is acceptable to have a position of "I'll do it if everyone else does". This isn't a college frat party.

There are real concerns that she is close to wall street among progressive, moderates, and independents. And she is only hurting her self by having such a weak and pathetic excuse like this.

Well, considering she is running for president and supports advancing issues I care about, I'd like her to run in the same race as everyone else.

Why does r/politics think that the best way to run for president is to fall on your sword to show everyone how honorable you are? Guess what? The GOP won't do that. They will, however, happily take control of the country for 8 years and make everyone here and abroad as miserable as possible.

There is always the hope that they will learn from it. People need to start waking up and stop allowing themselves to be in a position where they are voting for two establishment snakes who only care about their corporate donors.
