NEW YORK (Reuters) - Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton promised on Saturday to fight for ordinary Americans who have been left behind as the economy recovers, appealing to working families at the first major rally of her 2016 White House campaign.
Speaking on New York's Roosevelt Island, within sight of Manhattan's skyscrapers, Clinton promised would "make the economy work for everyday Americans, not just those at the top" if elected president.
The gathering of several thousand people cheered as Clinton said working people are asking why wealth is reserved for chief executives and hedge fund managers.
"You have to wonder, when does my hard work pay off? When does my family get ahead? When? I say now," she said.

With all of these politicians (past and present, Republican and Democrat) looking out for working families, one has to wonder how things got so bad for the middle class. I’m starting to think its just something they say when they want our vote.

The American people see things there that we can’t. I think they look at HRC and see WJC instead.

Where are the Black people at ? Nothin’ but a sea of White faces. What you are looking at is a sea of Transracial black people.
They can't help it if they were born with the wrong skin color.
