Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
- Will Rogers
Apparently, when it comes to Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders agrees. He recently said something to the effect that Hillary's great experience doesn't mean she has good judgement. I've been pointing this out for years.
When one starts out, gaining experience as a results of bad judgement dominates the process. As time goes on however, experience should come from learning from one's mistakes, by applying good judgement and seeing the benefit of making good decisions.
After years in the public eye and on the political stage, Hillary should fall into the latter phase of experience but unfortunately, we saw from her tenure as Secretary of State that wasn't the case.
We can't afford more On-the-Job judgement training and experience gathering in the White House. That is what Hillary will bring if elected president.
If anyone thinks Hillary is the the most qualified woman and the most qualified candidate if you are looking for a candidate that has taken millions of dollars from authoritarian states (that violate human rights and women's rights) as a pass through her family foundation; if you want a candidate that has brokered the sale or transfer of hundreds of billions of dollars worth of arms to both sides of various tribal and sectarian conflicts in in doing so, destabilizing the entire Middle East region: experience in creating a failed state and a terrorist Disneyland (Libya); taking millions from the Wall Street / Washington power brokers that fleeced taxpayers; abandoned Ambassador Stevens and the meager security force to fend for themselves for 13 hours while one of her diplomatic posts was under attack - then lying about the nature of the attack; coordinating the transfer of weapons systems from that very compound to radical islamist insurgents in Syria; lying about her personal history and making a calamity of the Russian reset and Asian pivot. Hillary, who's State Department mis-allocated $6B worth of fund, and who had top secret documents on an unsecured server that was hacked by the Chinese and should suffer criminal consequences. That's just the highlights of her resume. Yes, then if you believe this, Hillary is the most qualified to be president.
ReplyDeleteThat pretty much sums it up! Unfortunately, much of her support comes from those who think having a female president, any female, is more important than anything else. Quite sad considering this was the same type rational that elected our current president.
