Concerning Hillary:
I knew Obama by his economic advisors -- a catastrophe!
Same test for Hillary.
Second test -- where will she position re TPP?
She must take a stand against NOW or she's only marginally better than the Republican candidate.
Social issues must be matched by progressive economic positions or the plutocrats win.

From Screwed:
"Hartmann speaks with the straight talking clarity and brilliance of a modern day Tom Paine as he exposes the intentional and systematic destruction of America’s middle class by an alliance of political con artists and outlines a program to restore it. This is Hartmann at his best. Essential reading for those interested in restoring the institution that made America the envy of the world."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a literary descendent of Ben Franklin and Tom Paine. His unflinching observations and deep passion inspire us to explore contemporary culture, politics, and economics; challenge us to face the facts of the societies we are creating; and empower us to demand a better world for our children and grandchildren."
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
Thomm,
I had an addition way to describe the Republican Party, using the old adage of the "THREE R's":
1) THE RICH
2) THE RACIST
3) and THE RUBES
Your term "the SUCKERS" for (#3) works for me too!
