Do you seriously think the sytem doesn't work directly against MOST people? Yes, we must expose them and demand we have better people representing us. And we can start by getting someone into the highest office as an example of what ALL government should be like.
Hillary literally represents everything we SHOULDN'T want in our representatives. (maybe not everything but yes almost everything) and her own record shows this. Just TODAY there's talk about how she want to convince BUSH donors to come over to her side, liberal my ASS.
and I acknowledging the corruption in the system as a whole, that includes democrats AND republicans.

"Isn't any different" my ass. If you believe that you don't know much about her or politicians in general.
I do NOT think that the DEMOCRATIC side of the system works directly against most people and I think they face serious opposition in their efforts to better life for Americans. You keep demanding "better people" but they don't exist, they are as much a myth and a lie as the idea of any politician being perfect. The Democrats HAVE good people, have fighters, have the people we want representing us.
Hillary represents progressive values, equality, ambition, bravery, and if you don't want them then I don't know what you want in a president. You have been spoon fed these ridiculous notions and perceptions about her and you refuse to challenge them. You've been peddled this "which Hillary" CRAP that her political opponents capitalize on and you've come to believe it. Before Bernie and his camp did it, Republicans did it for decades; you've literally adopted Republican rhetoric and bull into the progressive fold, and I don't think anyone should be particularly happy about that. She is swaying Bush donors BECAUSE WE HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY WITH TRUMP AS THEIR NOMINEE. And you're painting it as proof she's not liberal enough? When we know based on record she's more liberal than goddamn Obama, and as liberal as Warren!? Ugh.
There might be corruption in the whole system, but when you fight Hillary that's not what you're actually fighting. You're fighting the Democratic Party; the one that brought us the New Deal, the one that saw through the monumental Civil Rights Act, the one that pushed for marriage equality, the one that has brought our economy back from the hell Bush 2 plunged us into.
Hillary being any more corrupt than the next person is smoke and mirrors ******** and isn't the damn point anyway. Who are these examples you want in higher office? Where are they? Because your real options right now are Hillary and Trump, and nobody else. Choose wisely.
