If it was, Democrats would dominate. Clinton and others put forth substantive positions on economics, while Trump makes vague and meaningless remarks.

It's partly the messenger. There can be no doubt that Clinton was victimized by decades of hate (much of it completely irrational and rooted in sexism).
