I wonder what's eating you. You sound very angry. If you don't like the tenor of the posts here why do you bother to read them.
You seem to think that working class people are all pissed off and won't vote for anyone not like them. Is there a working class candidate for president? It's true that Bill Clinton had a way of connecting with a lot of different people. He's charming. He's a great politician at that level. But were his policies really great for the working class? He could talk a good line but he really seemed to get off on his fancy "Friends of Bill."
Of the Democratic candidates Edwards was the one who talked about "two Americas", who seemed to be worried about those who fall below the median income.
So, in your opinion, who's the candidate for the "people?"
