8. How does he know this? Evidently he reads.

Along with the WSJ link provided by antigop above, try these:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/supporters-say-clinton-developing-smarter-more-relevant-campaign-for-2016/2015/01/19/503f910e-9a9b-11e4-a7ee-526210d665b4_story.html

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/08/us/politics/economic-plan-is-a-quandary-for-hillary-clintons-campaign.html?_r=0

Rather than ask how the author knows this, a better question might be how it is that you don't.

And the "Hillary trutherism" flippancy just looks foolish. The article offers a cogent 1,900-word critique on outmoded economic thinking and how examples of alternative approaches sourced worldwide could strengthen and future-proof the US economy, were they to be embraced by Clinton and by other politicians. It's pretty deep stuff to be dismissing with weightless snark like "Hillary trutherism."
