2. Yeah, that's the impression I got, though I didn't have much time to delve. It's 1 AM here now

And I still have 90 minutes worth of paperwork to do.

Business-friendly is OK as long as that's not the major focus. If he's a one-trick pony, than whatever sympathies he may have for our plight, in the major scheme of things, it won't help the country any. So--no matter how thrilled I am to hear SOMEONE take a stand, the fact remains that the person I see as our next president (i.e. either Bernie or Hillary) continues to duck the question with an eye toward ignoring us altogether (once again) once they get that "-elect" title before their name on the 11 o'clock news.

Saying "studies are needed" or lumping us all in with tax-evading "billionayahs" are about as much help as "I don't give a rat's ass," and are far less honest ways of saying so (at least someone told Bernie about Eritrea, and he remembered it).
