Obama had a more populist message and resonated more with the moment.
She wasn't even close to as much of the media favorite as she was in 2016 (though you're right, she was initially the annointed one)
Obama didn't end up living up to his message though, and definitely fell in line with the corporate dem class.
Populists never live up to their message because their message is mostly bullshit. Either outright lies or overly pie-in-the-sky idealist that can never really happen.
Wrong, they never live up to their message in America because of greed and legislative capture. (Depending on the person)
