To the Editor:
    Even as she lays claim president Obama's mantle, Hillary Clinton serves us a campaign that looks back, and not forward. In the mode of the first president Bush she urges us to "stay the course" unbothered by "that 'vision' thing".  But as this voter looks at that past, he sees that when she sat on WalMart's board of directors, she didn't change that companies predatory practices. And when she drove the national discourse on healthcare, nothing was accomplished. What did she accomplish as the senator from New York? Her years as secretary of state have been wholly eclipsed by John Kerry's record since then.
   Elections are about the future. For this voter, that requires a leader with a vision. That requires Bernie.
