Clinton Proposes Caregiving Tax Credit
Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton at the CNN Democratic Debate at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas, Tuesday, October 13, 2015. Sedona Tate, a 22-year-old Sanders supporter in Columbia, says that Bill Clinton boosts Hillary’s visibility in the state.
“People in SC will make their own decisions”, he said.
The next day, he endorsed Sen.
The other five GOP candidates who would beat her are Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz and Chris Christie. She says she would “break up the big banks” if necessary and hold financial executives accountable. “I go after the hedge funds, big insurance companies, shadow banking”. Both of her rivals support resurrecting the law known as Glass-Steagall, which separated commercial and investment banks. Sanders favors its restoration.
Her advisers say most Democrats like her economic policies and believe she would fight for middle-class and low-income Americans.
Clinton is expected to discuss the plan at a town hall-style meeting in Iowa on Sunday evening. Even if Clinton sews up the nomination quickly, subdued enthusiasm among the party’s liberal base could complicate efforts to energize Democratic turnout for the general election. Clinton has said she is willing to consider the idea but has not committed to “scrap the cap”, as progressive activists call the plan.
The big red flag in these polls is that they are national.
Clinton’s move comes as her main opponent Bernie Sanders has continued to hit Clinton on a lack of details to back up her campaign promises. “Can you point to one instance in our foreign policy where as secretary of state Secretary Clinton had an understanding of what was coming after the toppling of a dictator? These are major concerns”. Somebody who is really doing it because of your heart.
The lines are an uptick in directness from Sanders, who has in the past has been more subtle in calling out Clinton.
Her problem is also not likely to be limited to progressive voters.
Jake Quinn, an uncommitted Democratic superdelegate from North Carolina, said he was concerned about Clinton’s willingness to clamp down on Wall Street malfeasance.

When her hubby successfully ran for governor again in 1982 Hillary opted for “Mrs. Bill Clinton”.
Bashing Wall Street is not an automatic win for Sanders, however. But an unidentified campaign worker bee told Johnson that the requested name change was not really a request, just a clarification. “Now we’re ready to say, this is a new time”, Jones said.
New York’s junior senator was “having something of an identity crisis”.
And Clinton? “Her ties are her ties”, Turner said.
