In a recent gig she stated: the comment to the question I am asking.

http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/mar/04/hillary-clinton-to-democrats-dont-you-want-to-see-a-woman-president


Could there be enough support under a philosophy like this?

Added a photo to get the point across. :)

No, she is going to win because of her opponent.

Never underestimate the power of being right even if your enemy regards you as an element of collective stupidity. (P.S. It only takes one mongoose to kill a snake. SHHH)

Neither one should be walking around free. Both should be locked up.
I really do not understand how certain people get away with the things they do.

Although she did state that, that one question was highlighted in that report .But it was part of a broader statement to Dems and at or near the end of a outlook on things she would like to do or tackle if elected and as a raking point and smiling said "well wouldn't you want to see a women president "?
And it got the crowd appluading.
My point is that her saying that was not her reason to run.

It is the Platform for which she is trying to gain an advantage.
the Clinton's constant lies and deception is unbelievable!
Remember that the last Clinton was only the second President to be Impeached. Many seem to forget that.

Then president Clinton did lie about the 'sex' scandal but even though it was voted to impeach it was never done, and that was just a mess.The country wasted millions to investigate someone's personal sex life! When it's documented that many if not all had mistresses.
Look I wish I could say I was neither a Republican or democrat. But that's how we have to vote in major elections.
At least I can say under President Clinton we had a balanced budget agreement that was big part is on in a Republican controlled house,and he left a huge budget surplus. And with all the press and humiliation he caused she was strong enough a woman to give him another chance,and her health plan did not go through back then and she wants to tweet and fix the health care act. As any out conus vet u know most other countries there people have universal health care of some kind. And that's a huge thing,

As for Benghazi ?? Well as a former fast team member if our teams were still funded like they used to be and at all state department and embassies over seas,that whole situation would have never even happened. But under a past replica president, in do funding they cut that and turned it over to host country and private security for 95% of the protection of our state department and embassies overseas.
As for lies! Look the commission on the Iraq war came back and found President Bush and Cheney lied about our reasons to go back in iraq.
And it has cost this country trillions,and 3000+ kid's and multitudes of severe casualties, Many that I knew and you probably did akso.
Yet nothing was ever done to them???
So it's all a damp game to them,and they use what they want when they want it.

I think no matter her last name ,She is a tough women, and has weather u like it or not been in some tough situations,and dealt with so much more,as secretary of state with other countries in a war time environment that never made the so called news.
She right now has more experience working across the Isle and in foreign affairs than anyone else running or thinking of running in both parties.
And is not out to further divide this country than it already is.
Buy that just my opinion. I wish we had a few candidates with at least her experience or more to choose from.
But it does not look good.

TSGT Hunter Logan,
Well it's nice to chat with someone that knows or understands the details. Your right about the health care act, President Obama had I believe the right idea and it's the right thing to do,but like u said for many it's worse,and will go up.
But I also know as someone with many disabled friends who never served or with existing conditions and younger people who think they'll never need it,That it's been a huge benefit to them.
Yes it's screwed up and rolled out I think to fast. But it can work. If again both sides would work together on it. But unfortunately big health care and business controls so much,And also our elected officials on both sides.
As you and many of our vet family have witnessed,it's working in other countries with less than half the DGP we have.
It could be done,and I've heard her since she left the administration say what she thought was wrong and all that needed to be tweaked and changed.
On Behngazi,o know the react team was an hour away, they were a joint CIA and private security react team. And never got the go. But also said with all going on in streets they probably would not have had tine. That's why it pissed me off do much cause that was my job. And all that was cut out of DOD funding over a decade ago. As for her hard drive or even mails well call it like it is, but I also think there's things pertaining to chatting about others that she did not want to get out. It was a total snafu. I know some stationed near there and the chain of command and direction to do anything with host country in lead is screwed up and time consuming. Does that take away fault? ? Maybe not because no matter she was Secretary at time.
OK as to the so called reasons we went into Iraq, well I'm kinda biased on this, cause as part of security teams that stayed after the first gulf WR we destroyed everything.
And to have Gen. Colen Powell (one of the most straight up and honorable men) go in front of the U.N and post pics and Intel that was false and doctored by the administration, and him not know. We'll that was a HUGE lie and even he said if he had know he never would have done it.
That was not a hard drive or a screw up that cost a couple lives / not to say those list at Bengal were not important, but that gave the Bush/Cheney authorizition and they brought it then to congress, yes almost all voted for! But at the time with 9/11 and the country looking for revenge no one really wanted to look weak . Also in memos from Bush again meetings and interviews with his staff it's been uncovered that even before 9/11 they had talked about a,way to go back to Iraq ,That gave them the perfect excuse .
I'm sorry but the Price this country and especially our brothers and sisters paid was unforgivable and morally and legally wrong.
As for what has been found in some of deep underground depots and a couple of plants were ingredients that could be used to produce if combined and processed to make Chem weapons.But they were not functional.
And as the committee found out Iraq had no ties or connection to 9/11.
Yes I will admit I'm biased a bit ,cause I suffered from his father's stupidity the first time,so have followed this intensely.
I got side tracked lol.As for Mrs Clinton.
She like all probably has things that if came out would make her look bad. I really don't think cause of conversations with others stationed in areas near there that her to the administration and our command had real time info as to what was going down and did nothing basing info on host nation :(.
Would she hesitate again or debate if needed in future? I don't think so.
At the same time as a combat vet.I don't want big business war hugry candidates or representives getting us into sh.t were we can't get out or have a no end plan.
I might get sh.t from a lot of men,but maybe it is time for a female POTUS who will think more about the human cost as a mother, in making decisions and policy on all things not just foreign affairs to better things in this country for ALL including future generations.
It might not be Hillary Clinton.
Im.new on here and hope to find and chat/ discuss other things on here.

I do not know enough about her to make an informed decision. Of course almost anything is better than Hillary.

It seems like she's going to win by exploiting as much as she can, including being a female. She is also exploiting her grandchild. She may not win all Democrats; but she definitely has bleeding heart Liberals locked in. I say that because I think there's many Dems that have had more than enough scandal at this point. I just don't think there will be nearly as much excitement for the Clinton name as much as there was over 6 years ago; and that's something she was counting on for 2008. If we have enough people in our country would would vote and actually put her in office with all the scandal and questions of her trustworthiness, we're in serious trouble because that's a testament of how many people who are not paying attention.

No. Too much baggage. Benghazi will not go away, the American population will insure that. And the private mail server at her home? Do YOU believe her when she says she never sent any classified mail through that server while Secretary of State. I sure don't. But the cherry on the Sundae is when she asked coyly, "Don't you want a woman president?" I might, I'd vote for Condi Rice in a heartbeat. But not Hillary. There is proof that she and her husband Bill had 33 people killed. Vince Foster was supposed to have committed suicide? Look THAT up!

Imagine Hillary & Bill back in the WH with Bill as the First Husband......
