Yes, she's more of a hawk than I'd like. The difference between Clinton and Trump? He's a "hot reactor" and not an especially deep thinker. A lot like W in that respect. When it comes to foreign policy, the reality is that a *touch* of cold and calculated cunning is not out of place.

Kissinger, like Cheney, was a tool that was given too free rein. They are both highly intelligent, but the conscience has to be provided by somebody else.

According to Hillary - White Privilege and Racism and the biggest issues in our country today.
She has to have the Black Vote ........ it is her only chance. The fact that she is a criminal doesn't impact these Lemming Voters at all as long as she screams Racist,Racist,Racist all over the South.

Time will tell if that blind vote will be enough to get her into the Oval Office.

What is Hillary's appeal?

She isn't Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, or Ted Cruz, I think that is a good jumping off spot for any further discussion of the issue.

(PS - thank you for whittling down the candidates, the last time I had to write something like this it took entirely too long.)

I almost threw up, but then I realized the spelling.

No idea of her appeal. Brain dead Americans that want more of the same I guess.

For every Hillary supporter I've met and every Hillary supporter on this board, this is the entirety of the discussion. It's never I like Hillary for her stance on such and such

It's she's not a Republican
She's electable
She's experienced.

She doesn't have a real platform, she never really did, she's fluid. That's not necessarily bad, but to me it come across like this:

I am a Progressive who gets things done --Election Season
Sorry we can't do that but let's pass this TPP! It will be good for all. ---President.

Hillary is intelligent, can think quickly on her feet. Of all the candidates running for President, Hillary is the most qualified to be President.

In honesty I thought this was meant to be sarcasm.

I think she has a double meaning in that slogan. Only she knows whom she truly means by "us".

Sanders wants all Americans to succeed. I think he's a better candidate as well.
