The Soft Corruption of Clinton, Inc. -- And How It Could Cost Democrats the Presidency
The Huffington Post ^ | May 5, 2015 | by Miles Mogulescu

If you're someone who wants to lessen the dominance of concentrated wealth over our political system, end the revolving door between Wall Street and Washington, significantly reduce income inequality and avoid foolish wars, do not be deceived that Hillary Clinton is your ally.

Moreover, if the Democrats anoint Hillary as their nominee, there is a significant danger that public disgust at her soft corruption, and lack of trust in the veracity of her campaign pledges, could lead to a Republican becoming the next President.

For their entire political careers, the Clintons have been servants of the oligarchy. Since President Clinton left office, they have parlayed the presidency and State Department into tens of millions of dollars in personal wealth, paid for by the oligarchy, which has in turn transformed them from mere servants to full-fledged members of the oligarchy. They have transformed the presidency and the State Department into the biggest revolving door of all between Washington and Wall Street.

Hillary's soft corruption, and the distrust she instills in too many voters, could lead to a Democratic defeat. It may seem counterintuitive, but nominating Elizabeth Warren could allow the Democrats to again seize the banner of change and inspire millions of otherwise complacent voters to come to the polls.

A Republican Presidential victory in 2016 would be disastrous to the country and disastrous to the middle class and poor. But that could be the sad outcome if no serious Democratic challenger takes on the soft corruption of Clinton, Inc.

And if Hillary Clinton is anointed the next Democratic Presidential nominee and manages to defeat any of the prospective Republican nominees, the United States will continue to have great wealth concentration and little meaningful democracy.

If a RINO or a GOPe candidate wins the nomination, they will be afraid to attack Hitlery. We need a candidate unafraid to use every tool at their disposal to attack Her Thighness.

Soft Corruption?

Seriously? I think at the next costume party, I'm going as Diogenes looking for an honest member of the LSM.

Got to figure out what to carry for an updated, theme appropriate "lamp" though.

You’ll find them in a new vocation. We all left a while back. The few of us there were.

Of course GOP members, conservatives and tea party members are automatically guilty of “hard” corruption by default.

After the collapse, Propaganda Studies needs to be a K-12 class replacing Environmental studies...so survivors rebuilding America know it for what it is.

Soft corruption is not like “corruption, corruption”, just like rape is not like “rape, rape”. We’ve got to get up to speed on our Demo-speak.

There was a thread yesterday/day before with that very thing. Carson’s statement desiring no bad guns for city folk wasn’t what those words said and no infringement on 2A, merely a restriction and BTW, liberty can be restricted and still be called liberty.
