I never thought of Obama as an advocate for "neoliberalism."

Bill Clinton, maybe. Hillary Clinton, certainly. But not Obama.

Obama made such a big deal about not hiring lobbyists. His money came from small-time donors not rich fat cats, etc. And he governed like he wasn't owned by the special interests.

He was as bottom-up of a candidate as I have ever seen. Remember, the ENTIRE Dem establishment supported Hillary.
