Those two she did basically steal from them tbh  

But everything else she's talked about is pretty mainstream among liberals and Democrats. 

People like Bernie and Warren pushed Democrats more to the left. Hillary will have to at least try to legislate some of the things she's talked about. We all know she's a centrist. 

She went from $12-$15 to a flat $15 and she was giving her free college/support for loan plans before Bernie even announced he was running. 

Her stances on these two policies actually make more sense for the US and her education/college plan also included emphasis on head start programs and early education which is key to getting at risk populations to college in the first place.

I agree with her. But I did vote for Hillary so it's whatever.

She moved to $15 arguably after 44% of Dem. primary voters not supporting her. Well actually, a little before. 

She certainly emphasized more on college tuition because of people like Bernie. 

I mean I noticed her change in tone. Especially after the convention when the platform was influenced by those like Bernie. 

I know you're a huge Clinton supporter but she WAS influenced to be more to the left.  Nothing wrong with that.

From $12. A flat $15 really isn't logical, but that never mattered to Bernie. 

College tuition, loan help, pre K education was an early an constant part of her campaign, before Bernie ever announced he was running. 

She did move to the left, and that's fine. She can push for the extremes and settle somewhere in the middle...hopefully...but, we all know that Congess is going to fight her every step of the way. They were horrible during the Obama years, they will be downright deplorable during the next four years. I mean, they are already refusing to vote on ANY Supreme Court Justice that us put forward. I could go on and on about the GOP obstructionism!

The right woman will become president one day, and we won't label her as a "woman president" but just president hopefully. Hillary is a terrible politician

Yes, but you're making it sound like Bernie never existed. He impacted the election. 

$15 not logical? Several states have made their mw $15. 

(Just so you know idk if I agree with $15 either)

No, I'm saying that they basically had policies that aligned with one another. Also, remember that Hillary's voting record is more liberal than 85% of her colleagues. 

Due to the cost of living in many areas of the country. $15 an hour is going to put minimum wage workers at, of close to, the same level as teachers, Policemen, Firemen, etc. in many areas of he country. All states are not equal as far as cost of living. That's the problem and where logic is needed.
