: Quin, are you saying Clinton is a capitalist? By American standards, he's way to the socialist, liberal left; and his wife, Hillary, is further to the elitist left then her husband.

I'm stating that the Republicans and Democrats are basically representatives of Corporate America. But what is your idea of capitalist ? One who simply supports the ideal of capitalism or engages in speculation and usury ? Clinton and his wife are in no way realistically anything like the Left. It just takes some reading to get away from the idea that Clinton is a leftist.In my opinion what passes for the left (ie; liberal) in the US is not considered leftist in the rest of the world.

Clinton was a business candidate just like the rest of them including Kennedy. I know that's hard for people to let go of the personality cults that surround Kennedy,Reagan and other US presidents by seeing them in that light but if you look at the record closely you might see what I'm typing about.
