(90,304 posts)... and Clinton isn't Satan's daughter and relative to experience and character she was the best choice.
That being he shouldn't be focusing his energy in making demands on the person who won.
FOR ME and a lot of PoC it was his character and credibility which .. by the way, he's proving us correct as I type.. cause of his focus of energy being on the dems vs tRump
If for instance Sanders fought for a strong congress in the past I'd believe he was going to keep it real but he's going after making a deal with the president ...which the office of the president was never designed to be the strongest office its congress... and specifically the house because if the house is 90% dem the speaker becomes the strongest legislator due to the veto override ability.
FDR had an 80% congress, no need to veto anything from the dem speaker because it was going to pass... FDR had no choice but to be far left.
Instead of focusing energy on the POTUS focus where it belongs... on congress... but that's not what he's doing
People want what you outlined and none of the negative, which I don't think Clinton is going to bring about most of that.
