No, there is no “Purple Haze” on this one…
As the campaign season has slogged along, we have been given reasons from the Clinton camp to vote for Hillary. Yes, she’s the Junior Senator from New York (still a sore spot with many New Yorkers), but we’re told that she brings eight years of hard core international experience through osmosis. That is, we’re expected to believe that by her mere presence as First Lady (another debatable topic), Bill’s dealings with the international community rubbed off on her.
“Pressing her agenda on women’s rights” seems just a tad disingenuous given her relative silence on the treatment of women in Islamic countries, but the larger issue is the question of her overall qualifications as a potential Commander In Chief. I can’t get past an Ahmedinejad declaration of “Death To Israel” being met with an offer by a President Hillary Clinton to engage in a “good will endeavor”.
Another telling excerpt reveals that Hillary was more outside than in:
Asked about her role in Somalia and Haiti, Christopher said in an interview, “She wasn’t at any of the meetings in the Oval Office or cabinet room, and didn’t take any formal role that I saw.” Christopher is supporting Clinton for president.
One thing the voters must keep in mind as November draws near and we decide on the new leader of the free world…it’s not a game, it’s not a popularity contest, and it’s certainly not about electing someone of whom we think the world will approve.
We will elect OUR president. The rest of the world will simply have to learn to deal with it.
