In honor of Wal-Mart’s strong earnings today, I’m revisiting some of my posts so more people can learn about Hillary Clinton’s role as corporate director when Wal-Mart experienced it’s most rapid and aggressive period of growth.
You would think more people would be aware of this fact, but they aren’t. That is part of Hillary’s plan,
Mrs. Clinton’s six-year tenure as a director of Wal-Mart, the nation’s largest company, remains a little known chapter in her closely scrutinized career. And it is little known for a reason. Mrs. Clinton rarely, if ever, discusses it, leaving her board membership out of her speeches and off her campaign Web site.
Why has Hillary been able to avoid this topic during the campaign? I would think union-loving Democrats would be outraged. I would think “big business is evil” Democrats would be outraged? I would think Wal-Mart killed Mom and Pop store Democrats would be outraged?
To summarize? Where’s the outrage from these traditional Democrat constituencies?
Ed. note: Maybe Hillary has too many other problems as a candidate that they haven’t gotten around to this?
