Why Hillary must run and win in 2016

For a perfect statement of the liberal's world view, this article in The Daily Beast, by Michael Tomasky, is a nonpareil example.  The progressive/socialist agenda is a straight-forward one: keep raising taxes and expanding the reach and influence of the federal government because the other side is comprised largely of selfish rich people who have too much of the national wealth.  It really isn't much more complicated than that.  The Clintons are perfect leaders of the progressive movement because while they have become insanely wealthy by tapping into all manner of opportunities for milking the liberal rich who are into assuaging their guilt for being so rich, they of course have only the interest of the downtrodden and poor always in mind.  Aren't the rest of us lucky to have them?  That is the message of Mr Tomasky and he speaks for the liberal media and all the other statists who believe that the private sector, while perhaps a necessary evil, must be tightly controlled and managed for the benefit of the common good.  This has been the mantra of socialists since the dawn of the industrial revolution and the creation of wealth producing business enterprises.
