    Yeah this is true basically the only people guaranteed to win every time regardless which side is in power are the lobbyists.

  2. Clinton-fought as hard as he could for single payer health care

    Obama-Single payer was never on the table,gave up on the public option even though he had enough votes to get it with reconciliation and in the end accepted the health plan the republicans were fighting for as the alternative to Clintons single payer plan




    Clinton- raised taxes

    Obama-over 275 billion in tax cuts in his stimulus package and extended Bush tax cuts





    Clinton -anti war and kept the country out of major wars.Cut the defense budget

    Obama -extends and prolongs major wars ,increased defense budget significantly





    Clinton-fought republicans

    Obama-caves to republicans on nearly every issue






    I dont understand how you can say Clinton is center left and Obama is far left.If Clinton had the majorities in congress that Obama had it would have been liberal utopia.Obama had super majorities in congress and most of his polices are republican policies
