Hillary Rodham Clinton wants to crack down on irresponsiblebehavior by Wall Street players by imposing a new fee on large financial institutions and vowing that individual bankers who violate the law will be “prosecuted and imprisoned”.
But O’Neal said he believes Sanders can win in Arizona against both Clinton and the eventual Republican nominee. Though the frontrunner, Clinton is far from progressive-for example, she waited until 2013 to publicly advocate for gay marriage, and did not take a stand against the construction of the Keystone Pipeline until earlier this autumn.

He mentioned her experience as a senator and as a first lady. But Democrats argue the press and voters should not lose sight of fundamental trends in the race that still support Clinton.

In an interview with PBS anchor Judy Woodruff Wednesday evening, Clinton said “What I know about it, as of today I’m not in favor of what I’ve learned about it”. “He said that the new reform would be to un-fix it and get the lowest rates possible”.
Potts Field – where the rally will be hosted – can accommodate up to 10,000 people, but it’s unclear how many tickets will be made available for the event.

She quickly transitioned into finger-pointing mode, lamenting “the hold the NRA has over members of Congress”. Sanders’ unique ability to create camaraderie within his supporters is dependent on his constant relation of his policies to the distribution of wealth in this country. Many hope that Bernie’s honest faith in the younger generation will inspire America’s youth to register to vote. “And, man, he’s got the guts”, she said. “I’ve never seen so many of my friends into politics”.
