Just what does Barbara Ehrenreich have to say (disclaimer: she’s a stated Obama supporter) about Hillary’s religion problem?
The Family avoids the word Christian but worship Jesus, though not the Jesus who promised the earth to the “meek.” They believe that, in mass societies, it’s only the elites who matter, the political leaders who can build God’s “dominion” on earth. Insofar as the Family has a consistent philosophy, it’s all about power – cultivating it, building it, and networking it together into ever-stronger units, or “cells.” “We work with power where we can,” Doug Coe has said, and “build new power where we can’t.”
Perhaps a philosophy that’s “all about power” might explain the campaign tactics which (finally) have led to superdelegates speaking up and warning the Clinton campaign that the “calculated, desperate-to-win” antics likely will cost her their support.
