Socialism is trending, so we have to get used to it.
Keeping that in mind, the only difference between socialism and full blown Communism is that in Communism the government takes ownership of all the businesses and means of production, and use automatic weapons carrying stormtroopers to keep the system in place.
Our government doesn't take ownership of businesses, it sells licenses to the elite to run the businesses for them.
LMAO! That's what I thought. Your post sounded just as ridiculous to you as it did to everyone else!
Really?...I didn't see anyone else comment on it.
Oh and point out what 4 out of 5 elections are you talking about?

Mainstream??? Really??? How about a "MAINSTREAM" party that has won the popular vote in 5 of the last 6 presidential elections? Would you call that "MAINSTREAM"?
The Democrats won the popular vote in 5 of the last 6 presidential elections? 1. 1992 Bill Clinton won by 5,805,256 votes over George H.W. Bush. DEM
2. 1996 Bill Clinton won by 8,201,370 votes over Bob Dole. DEM
3. 2000 George W. Bush LOST the popular vote by 50,460,110 votes to Al Gore DEM
4. 2004 George W. Bush won by 3,012,171 votes over John Kerry REP
5. 2008 Barack Obama won by 9,550,193 votes over John McCain DEM
6. 2012 Barack Obama won by 4,982,296 votes over Mitt Romney DEM
Just as I posted!

Court Suspends Former Hillary Clinton Staffer From Practicing Law
by Patrick Howley21 Sep 2015412 A former Hillary Clinton campaign staffer is suspended from practicing law after she was charged with perjury and other crimes.
Democratic Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane was recently arrested for allegedly disclosing confidential information about an investigation to the press.
In reporting on Kane’s suspension Monday by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, the mainstream media has glossed over at least one detail: Kane worked for the Clintons.
Kane gave up her job as a district attorney in 2007 to join Hillary Clinton’s first campaign for the presidency.
Kane’s 2012 run for Attorney General was boosted by a high-profile endorser: Bill Clinton

YOUR claim was about "MAINSTREAM"... remember? How more mainstream can you get than winning the popular vote in 5 of the last 6 elecctions. Your point about REAGAN... In today's TeaBagger GOP, Reagan couldn't get elected dog catcher.
Reagan = amnesty for illegals Reagan = anti assault weapons Reagan = supported health care for all Americans.
Reagan = couldn't win any election today

FBI Said to Recover Personal E-Mails From Hillary Clinton Server
The FBI has recovered personal and work-related e-mails from the private computer server used by Hillary Clinton during her time as secretary of state, according to a person familiar with the investigation.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s success at salvaging personal e-mails that Clinton said had been deleted raises the possibility that the Democratic presidential candidate’s correspondence eventually could become public. The disclosure of such e-mails would likely fan the controversy over Clinton’s use of a private e-mail system for official business.
The FBI is investigating how and why classified information ended up on Clinton’s server. The probe probably will take at least several more months, according to the person, who described the matter on condition of anonymity because the investigation is continuing and deals with sensitive information.
A review by Clinton and her aides determined that about half of the 60,000 e-mails she exchanged during her four-year tenure as secretary of state were of a personal nature, the presidential candidate has said.
Those e-mails, she said, mostly dealt with planning for Chelsea’s wedding, yoga routines and condolence messages.
Clinton said the personal e-mails were deleted from the server and her staff turned over paper copies of the remaining work-related e-mails in December to the State Department for processing and archiving. The FBI obtained Clinton’s server from the Colorado-based company managing it.

Many of the work-related e-mails contain schedules, press clippings, staffing updates, speech notes, and requests to aides for tech support. Some e-mails are simply requests to speak with people over secure phone.
Sounds as serious as the bogus Benghazi non scandal!

As usual Boxy, you like to cherry pick.
Those 'work related e-mails' were from the 8k already released via FOIA lawsuits, not the ones that the FBI has just extracted. Maybe you should learn to read. Among those 'work related e-mails' were dozens of e-mails that were deemed classified by the State Department.

As the result of public information lawsuits, the State Department has posted almost 8,000 of those work-related e-mails on its website. The State Department has determined that dozens of the e-mails contained classified information.
Many of the work-related e-mails contain schedules, press clippings, staffing updates, speech notes, and requests to aides for tech support. Some e-mails are simply requests to speak with people over secure phone lines.

Um.... my post was taken from YOUR LINK. If it'sbull $hit, then it's YOUR BULL $HIT! The FBI will was asked to investtigate for wrongdoing. As posted earlier, they are not looking at Hillary for criminal acts.
Just a note: In this case and in other cases involving diplomats or US officials, there is often an issue that when written is NOT secret, but at a later date, would be considered secret and needing special security. For example something written on Sept 10,2011, might seem inconsequencial before the terrorist attack, but be labled TOP Secret if it were written on Sept 12th.

Hillary Clinton on Rape: You Have the Right to Remain Silent Because Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You… by the Clintons
by Roger Stone & Robert Morrow27 Sep 20151,498
In our astounding book The Clintons’ War on Women, which will be published by Skyhorse on October 13th, we demonstrate how shamelessness is a condition that the Clintons have perfected to an art form.
Take, for example, Hillary’s recent pledge, as reported by Ruby Cramer, to crack down on campus rape and her encouraging words to sexual assault survivors: “Don’t let anyone silence your voice. You have the right to be heard … to be believed. And we’re with you.” In fact, we argue, Hillary Clinton has enabled rape and denigrated sex victims.
Ironically, Bill Clinton’s first alleged rape was of a 19-year-old coed named Eileen Wellstone. We believe that he was not prosecuted because the State Department did not want a Rhodes Scholar charged with rape.
Hillary is the woman who has been in an arguably sham marriage and a cynical political union with Bill Clinton for 41 years. Hillary was the one who was hiring private detectives, such as Ivan Duda, since 1982 so that she could get the names and addresses of Bill’s girlfriends so that she could “get rid of all these bitches he’s seeing.”
This is the same woman who was allegedly fully aware of Bill’s 1978 alleged rape of campaign volunteer Juanita Broaddrick in real time. As we reveal in The Clintons’ War on Women, according to former Clinton insider Larry Nichols, Hillary came running into the Clinton HQ and said, “You won’t believe what the motherf___r [Bill] just did. He tried to rape some b**ch!” That blockbuster quote is just one of many things in the book that the MSM has carefully tried to keep out of your eyesight.
The book is about Bill Clinton’s long history of allegedly raping and sexually assaulting women and Hillary’s long history of allegedly psychologically raping these women in the aftermath in order to silence them lest they interfere with the Clintons’ rise to power. http://www.breitbart.com/big-g.....you-by-the-clintons/

let's see what Obama's retaliation will be on this one!
Hillary Clinton has made a major break with Obamacare .
Business Insider By Brett LoGiurato 15 hours ago
Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton called for a repeal of the US Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act's so-called Cadillac tax, marking a significant break from US President Barack Obama on his signature healthcare law.
"Too many Americans are struggling to meet the cost of rising deductibles and drug prices. That's why, among other steps, I encourage Congress to repeal the so-called Cadillac tax, which applies to some employer-based health plans, and to fully pay for the cost of repeal," Clinton said in a statement released Tuesday by her campaign.
Clinton's call to scrap the law puts her on the same page as Democratic presidential rival and US Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont). Sanders — who caucuses with Democrats in the Senate — and eight Democratic senators introduced legislation to repeal the tax, a 40% excise tax on employer plans whose premiums exceed $10,200 for individuals and $27,500 for families.
Democrats often argue the provision – which is generally disliked across the political spectrum and is highly unpopular with many unions whose support Clinton's campaign is courting — is more in reality a tax on most employer-sponsored health plans.
"Some have said that this tax only falls on 'Cadillac' healthcare plans, but the reality is that the plans this bill will tax are more like Chevrolets," Sanders said in a statement last week. "Workers have fought hard to negotiate decent healthcare benefits, often in exchange for lower pay. This excise tax unfairly punishes them."
For Clinton, the break stands to be part of a series of proposals in which she advocates for building on the law, colloquially known as Obamacare. Last week, for example, she introduced a plan to combat the rising cost of prescription drugs, and she took aim Monday at a pharmaceutical CEO whose company had jacked up the price of a popular drug by more than 5,000%.
Larry Levitt, senior vice president for special initiatives at the Kaiser Family Foundation, said Clinton's planned schism with the healthcare law would be "big." But he and other experts on the law suggested candidates would have to offer plans on how to make up a large chunk of expected revenue the tax would bring the government.
According to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, the tax is expected to bring in $87 billion in revenue by 2025 and grow exponentially in the years that follow. It's why the tax counts among its fans many economists and deficit hawks.
"It's premature to call it dead, though, since it's not at all clear there will be consensus around how to replace the substantial revenues the tax raises and how to constrain healthcare spending," Levitt told Business Insider.
Added Tim Jost, a professor at the Washington and Lee University School of Law and a supporter of the law: "Somebody still needs to figure out how to pay for a repeal. There is a lot of money involved."
In her statement, Clinton said her "reforms" to the law would "more than cover" the cost of repealing the Cadillac tax, but she did not offer further specifics.
