MSNBC host begs Hillary Clinton not to run in 2016

Hillary Clinton has been the darling of the progressive left for decades now. You already can’t go anywhere without seeing “I’m Ready for Hillary” bumper stickers on the cars of many Dem’s already looking ahead to 2016.

But while Hillary is the presumptive heir to the presidency in the eyes of many Democrats, one MSNBC host, Krystal Ball of The Cycle, doesn’t want Hillary to run. In fact she dedicated several minutes of her collaborative show to a monologue of reasons Hillary isn’t the right person to run for President in 2016.

So why doesn’t Ms. Ball, who admits that she campaigned for Hillary in 2008, want Mrs. Clinton to run again?

It must be Benghazi, right? No, that would make too much sense.

Actually, Ms. Ball’s primary concern with Clinton is that she’s just flat out too rich.

Seriously.

This MSNBC host seems to believe the cure for what ails America is not a return to our founding principles, but an all out move toward a progressive utopian society in which the workers rise up and take down the big, bad, oppressive capitalists.

“We need someone who is mission driven, who is clearly passionate, living and breathing and feeling in their bones the plight  of the worker, of the middle class. That person is not Hillary Clinton”

Ms. Ball’s “real middle-class champion?” Senator Elizabeth Warren. Yes, that Elizabeth Warren, of “I’m totally a Native American” fame.

With a net-worth of over $14 million, Senator Warren is hardly what most of us would consider middle class. By all counts she earned her wealth through hard work, wise investing, and honest means, so she is certainly entitled to that money. But that’s not what she thinks about the rest of us.

Jumping on Obama’s “You didn’t build that” bandwagon, Sen. Warren was filmed saying this last year:

“You built a factory out there? Good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police-forces and fire-forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn’t have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory — and hire someone to protect against this — because of the work the rest of us did.”

“Now look, you built a factory and it turned into something terrific, or a great idea. God bless — keep a big hunk of it. But part of the underlying social contract is, you take a hunk of that and pay forward for the next kid who comes along.”

In fact, the majority of members of Congress are millionaires, so if Ms. Ball wishes to find a middle-class worker, she’s going to need to looks somewhere else. In fact, I’d recommend any number of hard working Alabamians.

Obama ran, and has governed, on a platform of wealth redistribution, claiming it would strengthen the middle class and help Americans find jobs in the recovering economy. What we see as a result of that policy is record-high numbers of Americans on food stamps and out of the workforce. While MSNBC might wish to see more of this (perhaps they think someone will actually watch their network if they’re jobless and at home), the vast majority of Americans are tired of the inflammatory rhetoric and failed policies of the progressive left.

The liberal media’s propaganda machine has turned over its engine, and is warming up in preparation for the 2016 presidential election. Class warfare is the name of the game this cycle. Don’t be surprised to see more and more of this type of rhetoric over the next year and a half.
