"The deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top," Hillary Clinton has warned us, and she ought to know. Having been "at the top," or close enough to it, since 1976, when her husband was elected attorney general of Arkansas at age 30--not the biggest job ever, but one with a whole lot of power to play with--she has leveraged every ounce that it held to bring to them ever and ever more money and power, until at this moment, 14 years after leaving the White House, she and Bill sit on a mile-high mountain of both. Their wealth is immense and their power unlimited, at least in their party. The very few viable national candidates left after the two midterm wipeouts that decimated Democratic ranks in the reign of Obama are so afraid to risk the Clintons' wrath that she is cruising unopposed to the nomination for the first time since no one knows when. How did two penniless kids living in roughly 1,000 square feet in Fayetteville, Arkansas, reach such heights? Let us look back and see. |
