I have this wild theory that young people do not want to vote for Hillary, because no young person wants to be told what to do by their 'always right' mother.
Personally, I think that it is time for a Mother of Our County. Women tend to be better caretakers.
Maybe, if I had not messed up my knee, I would have gone into politics. Hillary is very much a progressive pragmatist, just like me. She even started out in Legal Services, like I did.
I believe that we could change things for the poor, the disabled, and the disenfranchised by bringing back the old Legal Services and funding it well.
Legal Services could even do class actions in order to help fund itself. That way, we could require a vote by the community governing board before instituting a class action. This should help insure that class actions are not being used just to "beat up" small businesses.
Back when Hillary and I were young lawyers, working for Legal Services, we were fixing real problems.
As Legal Services became more effective in protecting people from predators, the predators used propaganda to make you all think Legal Services were being unfair.
I also think that we could forgive student loans for people who worked in positions where they helped the poor.
Perhaps doctors and nurses who agree to work in rural areas for a while could also have their loans forgiven.
