(5,761 posts)but more or less a call to question things. Why is Hillary roping in journalists while Sanders is walking down the street looking like an everyday guy. Are you seeing the correlation here with what Bernie supporters have been saying all along? One is for the people. One is not.

Hillary's private jet
Honestly, I tried to find a single picture on Google of Hillary in an airport or on a actual airliner and all I got was a big fat zero.

(32,623 posts)In case your really interested in some of the ways the Secret Service handles her travel-
Clinton does not fly the commercial the way you fly commercial. Thanks to strict security concerns, Clinton is insulated from the public from the moment she arrives at one airport to the time she leaves the second one. And even when trapped in a metal tube in the sky with fellow passengers, there are few opportunities for public interaction.
While the insulation is largely outside of Clintons control and determined by the Secret Service, it underscores the logistical difficulties Clinton will have in connecting with ordinary voters on her second campaign.......
An older man knocked on the glass like he was tapping on a fish tank and Clinton turned to give a big, enthusiastic wave. She made an OK sign with her thumb and ring finger and smiled. A moment later, she was lead onboard and took a window seat in the first row. The small commuter plane had only one class.

Aerows
(39,961 posts)He liked to drive his own cars, and would drive in the public lanes, even though as a monarch he was allowed to drive in bus lanes. During the 1973 energy crisis driving was banned on certain weekends. King Olav never wanted to miss an opportunity to go skiing, and while he could have driven legally, he wanted to lead by example. So he dressed up in his skiing outfit, and boarded the Holmenkollbanen suburban railway carrying his skis on his shoulder.[9] He was later asked how he dared to go out in public without bodyguards. He replied that "he had 4 million bodyguards" the population of Norway was at the time 4 million.
That's what happens when you are for the people and lead by example.
