Still, more than half of Walmart is owned by "the Waltons"
I don't know of Clinton's involvement with that company, nor do I think that it matters to voters.
Yes, hypocritically, it doesn't matter to her voters.
Just like her voters that protest against elite privilege are cheering for her to get special privileges as a political elite in her mishandling of classified info scandal.
As a socialist who is to the left of Bernie Sanders (who is decidedly not a socialist), Clinton isn't even a remote possibility for me. I can envision voting for Sanders in a general election because I'm convinced of his sincerity and honesty--even though I don't agree with him on many issues.
With Clinton, terms like "sincerity" and "honesty" are jokes. She has shown herself to be a master of political manipulation, essentially saying what she feels necessary to acquire support. On her domestic policy, clinton is right-of-center, with the exception of her support for feminist issues which appeal to her most important core constituency.
Clinton's vote as a senator to invade Iraq, in the best of circumstances, shows just how reckless and gullible she is. Even more ominous is the possibility (likelihood?) that her vote was calculated to help position herself for a presidential run--political expediency, fueled by arrogance and blind ambition.
Hillary Clinton is indistinguishable from neocons on her foreign policy positions. Her pro-imperialist, pro-military-industrial-complex foreign policy would likely entrench this country in immoral, unwinnable conflicts around the world for decades to come; the cost of which would make any substantive move towards more progressive domestic policy unachievable.

I agree. I am so tired of dynasty politics. Are we in the middle ages with lords and peasants? The Bushes are out for a while except if the next generation gets started. The Clintons, well Chelsea is obviously going to run to some office - probably soon.
Remember when Chelsea had her baby and left the NYC hospital with a blue dress on (like Kate) with her hair blown out and makeup done (like Kate), holding the baby in her arms all smiling and waving (like Kate) with her husband at her side (like Kate) as well as her parents? I cringed. So reminiscent of the royal family and how they introduce their babies to the world, and so so similar to how Kate brought out George. Blue dress and everything. Baby in her arms rather than the car seat, mom not leaving in a wheelchair like is usually standard. Walking down a similar set of stairs outside. There are even comparison side by side pics to Kate and George online. Google "Chelsea Clinton leaves hospital."
I remember thinking at the time... who does she think she is?? Who does she think her family is? They're not royalty. I don't recall Jenna Bush introducing her first baby in such a way.
Hillary is just an evil person, it is one thing for a lawyer to defend a rapist that she believes is guilty, it is another thing for a lawyer to attack and belittle a young rape victim that she believes is telling the truth while laughing.
Hillary sent classified emails using her private set up while overseas via foreign telecoms that could have easily picked it off. This is a huge "no no" that she would have been trained specifically not to do. What other explanations for this are there besides #1 She is senile and forgets proper protocol, #2 She wanted foreign agents to pick off the info and is a traitor, OR #3 She lives in such a fantasy land where she is above the law, that she can do whatever she feels like without consequence -- "afluenza."

No, they're not royalty. They are basically Arkansas trailer trash: a husband (Bubba) that sleeps with anything he can, a wife (Bride of Bubba) who stands by her man no matter how many "bimbo eruptions" he causes) and a daughter who thinks her parents are just wonderful people, despite bearing a striking resemblance to one of her mother's former law partners.
What a tangled Webb this white trash family has woven.....

Anyone that thinks they are 'progressive' but yet willing to let Trump or Cruz run the country ~ is NO progressive, IMO.
IF you are waiting on the perfect candidate - you will be waiting a long, long time.
IF you are fine with a conservative supreme court for the next 30 years - undoing all the social progress that we have made (and yes that matters to me) you are no progressive. I don't know if some of you are just not that bright or perhaps Republican trolls (yes, they are out there) but certainly no progressive. There are good people in this country who will NEVER vote for anything resembling 'socialism' so it is unfortunate that Bernie gave himself that title. We are not Denmark or Sweden; we are the USA. Capitalism does work with the right regulations. Bernie is not electable at this time. 10 years ~ 20 years from now ~ perhaps.

Good lord. This family can't even have a baby without someone judging them. How petty.
How would YOUR life stand up to the scrutiny they have had for 40 years? You are rewarding 25 years of the Republican smear campaign.
