"So you think that Bill appointed her to come up with a health care plan because he disagreed with her on her basic ideas there? I doubt that."
hmmm... honestly, I believe Bill to be the weaker of the two personalities. I think it was more her telling him she was going to create the plan and him saying... "yes, dear".
"And as for trade, SF, we live in a different country than we did when Bill shilled NAFTA. I don't think he could do it today,"
I disagree. If anything the global market improvements should be a sign that free trade works well.
"nor do I believe that Hillary is left on trade, i think she's making some noise to pander."
I disagree on the first part, agree on the second.
"But we now live in a country that has felt the effects of this "free trade" and it has NOT risen all boats, and that is not a leftist position, it's a populist one,"
But it is an incorrect position. Populist or not. Left or not.
"and there are most certainly people in the Republican party who are not for these trade deals either. I mean R voters."
True.... they are the isolationist types.... and they are wrong as well.
