I don't know, Hillary looks a little badass in this ad! Might end up having the opposite effect.And will people get the 'Office Space " reference?

One of Hillary's campaign issues is that CEOs of American companies make too much money. It turns out that the average CEO makes less per year than Hillary makes per speech.

And while both Hillary and Bernie claim that CEOs make on average 300 times what workers make, the actual average ratio of CEO to worker pay is 4.4 to 1.

Not a fair comparison, because they all volunteer to pay that to her for a speech. Most of her earnings she donates to charity (The Clinton Foundation).

Bill and Hillary are just a couple of high maintenance folks. It's tough to keep up a decent lifestyle after you come out of the White House dead broke and have some big mortgages on your mansions to pay off.

Hillary will be taken to the dog pound on that speech - what an idiot. Again, I'm laughing at the "liberal superior intellect". I would use the scene from Caddyshack when Bill Murray is watching the women golfers, where he states "c'mon, bark like a dog for me.

I find it hard to believe that anyone supports Hillary Clinton. As hard as I try, I can't find a single redeeming quality about her as either a person or potential leader. I couldn't disagree with Sanders about economics and business any more than I do, but I like the guy, respect him, think his heart is in the right place, and think he's generally a high quality person. Even his comments about Scalia were extremely respective and appropriate. He's just misguided about how our economic system works and what would happen if he implemented the kinds of things he wants to do. Hillary is a terrible candidate in every way.

I suspect that Bernie Sanders is a burned out hippie who in his early years was an anti-establishment social radical.
An article in "The American Thinker" says that he never earned a regular pay check in the first four decades of his life!

Bush was the terrible candidate!!!!! That was known when he put to death the nun. The manner in which he handled it was atrocious.

Then compare to Nikki Haley, she handled the Dylan Root disaster masterfully, she's now their best candidate.
