Sorry, I don’t buy it. I’ve been following the Primaries very closely, and the candidates from both Major Parties assure us that they really do represent We The People.
Depends on what the definition of "we" is.
There were only two potential candidates who'd earned my trust on this issue, one has already been forced out and the other is being ignored by the party mainstream. All the others are mouthing platitudes intended to calm down the few remaining conservatives - making promises that will last right up to the swearing in ceremony.
PS: I know two certified adult Americans who would be absolutely thrilled to be earning a steady $9.00 an hour. One's quite skilled and the other is quite pi$$ed off.
