Hillary on Hoover

Senator Clinton Blasts Long Dead President

Ben Shapiro: Herbert Hoover's daughter Hillary

Hillary and the Democrats blast Hoover because he was a Republican. But Hoover, like FDR and like Hillary Clinton, was a big-government economic policy-maker. As economist Thomas Sowell of Stanford University's Hoover Institution explains in his book, "Basic Economics," "Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt both tried to use the powers of the federal government to restore the economy." The Hoover economic ideology of yesterday is almost identical to the Hillary economic ideology of today.
