"Hillary Clinton, more than others, has a worldview problem because the vast majority of the electorate has already told itself a story about her...

Bonus: "Hillary Clinton received the most money from Goldman [Sachs] employees and affiliated PACs... during the 2016 election cycle." -- The Atlantic, April 2017, pp. 23. #hillaryclinton
