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.

Mueller's favorite place to pray (written about in "Prophet's Way"), and the roof of the room where the Last Supper is reputed to have happened.
From Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
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 Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
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!
