Introduction

Now that the Republicans have grabbed the Senate, the corporate democrats will be calling for the nomination of Hilary Clinton for the presidential candidate in 2016. This would be a dramatic error, for the loss of the Senate by corporate Democrats was fueled by the failure of Barrack Obama and the Wall Street linked Democratic Party to represent the interests of the American people.

Now that the democrats have lost the 2014 elections for Senate the prospects of an entire takeover of all functions and apparatus of the government by the Republican Party seems eminent. And as I wrote for Opednews, this is the plan that has been in the works for decades (http://www.opednews.com/articles/Gerrymandering--Voter-Sup-by-Danny-Weil-Court-Decision_Elections_Electoral-College_Electoral-Politics-141102-243.html) with the help of the reactionary Supreme Court.

In August 2014, I penned an article for The Daily Censored that indicated just what a poor decision a Hilary Clinton nomination would be and why. Hilary is a corporate war monger whose nomination can only lead to another defeat for the interests of the American people and the further ascension into the abyss of war and inequality.

As the following article shows, Hilary Clinton is linked to both Wall Street and the military industrial complex in colossal ways.

Clearly, any resuscitation of the Democratic Party will involve a thorough house cleaning and this seems unlikely. What is more likely is that the reactionary Republicans will run Jeb Bush for presidency in 2016 and seize the White House.

Below, is the article I wrote in August of this year that clearly shows how Hilary Clinton and her allies are working with defense and surveillance companies, like Beacon Global Strategies, to assure they can present themselves to the American people, but even more so to the military and the surveillance complex, that they are the most qualified to represent American imperialism and the plutocrats on Wall Street.

A previous article reported on Hillary Clinton associates who lobby on behalf of for-profit colleges, vulture capitalists, and uranium polluters (http://www.dailycensored.com/hilary-2016-clinton-associates-lobby-for-vulture-capitalists-scandal-plagued-for-profit-colleges-and-uranium-polluters/).

Additional concerns about the nature of a future Hillary Clinton presidency are raised by a new DC consulting firm , Beacon Global Startegies, populated by former Clinton aides. As one publication noted: "Beacon is all Hillaried up (http://www.frontpagemag.com/2014/dgreenfield/senators-accuse-hillary-clintons-cia-ally-of-lying-about-benghazi-under-oath/).

Should Hillary Clinton become president, it is likely many of the Clinton aides turned lobbyists & consultants will work in her administration. As the Washington Post reported:

" Even as former Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines, former assistant secretary of state Andrew Shapiro and former Panetta chief of staff Jeremy Bash start up Beacon Global Strategies, however, they are making it clear they intend to return to government service in the future" (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-politics/wp/2013/09/03/former-hillary-clinton-aides-form-bipartisan-consulting-firm/).

This is part of the revolving door which characterizes Washington. This time the door is being constructed purposely for purposes of entering and exiting. As Fox news reported:
