In supporting her candidacy, we support a candidate who is determined to bridge the gap between parties and work for all Americans, not just the wealthy and well-connected.

again

to bridge the gap between parties and work for all Americans

Mr. Gross, what you are talking about are two things that cannot and will not work together. We have a party that does not give a shit about anyone but the wealthy and well connected, and who has NO interest in compromise, even within their own ranks! Any president that is willing to work for all Americans will need to put any olive branches aside and outright FIGHT the GOP, even if it means four years of acrimony, because at least that will be four years closer to the point where the GOP finally realizes it has to yield, as opposed to Hillary giving them what they want and feeding us the leftovers!
