Clinton: I am not a single-issue candidate
Hillary Clinton on Thursday night sought to contrast herself with Bernie Sanders by framing him as a single-issue candidate who cannot deal with the broad set of American challenges.
“We agree that we’ve got to get accountable money out of politics; we agree that Wall Street should never be allowed to wreck Main Street again,” Clinton said in her closing statement at the Democratic presidential debate hosted by PBS in Wisconsin.

Sanders had spent much of the night pivoting back to his preferred issues of income inequality and the campaign finance system, but Clinton said she wants to overcome all “the barriers that are holding people back.”
