Comments on the Brooklyn Debate

Senator Bernie Sanders and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had a
heated debate at Brooklyn, New York, last night, hosted by CNN. Clinton was
talking about her previous status as a first-lady, a senator, and a
secretary of state. If Sanders had been sharp on his attack, then Clinton
may not mention such "experience" any more. As a first-lady for eight years,
as a senator from New York for eight years, and as a secretary of state for
four years, Mrs. Clinton had done how much to the history, either
positively or negatively? Hillary had her chances as a powerful person.
Sanders might have brought such hard questions for her to answer. Mrs.
Clinton now praises President Obama, which is absurd. To my life experience,
President Obama failed as a president to many of his promises. Wars,
corruption, poverty, inflation, real unemployment rate, violence,
government irresponsibility, etc, you name them. To handle many of such
persistent problems, the government needs to be really revolutionized. The
USA may not become a communist nation, but why can it not become a socialist
nation? Why NOT?
Mr. Sanders did mention some European nations for the USA to catch up with.
Wasn't this a way of answering how to handle the old system? If Sanders
brings out his concrete plans to break up the big banks now, the banks may
well break Sanders down first.
