Democratic Leadership Council, Bill Clinton and Corporate Triangulation
Jimmy Dore explains the origins of the Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) under Bill Clinton and Al Gore. He describes "triangulation" as a strategy to adopt Republican issues, leading to the gutting of welfare, the expansion of the prison population, and the repeal of New Deal banking laws. He also mentions a secret deal between Clinton and Newt Gingrich to privatize Social Security.
