Foxy one,

I believe in a womans intuition, in this case yours

Hillary is pretty much a generic product of party politics in the US.

Backed by banking donations and the status quo - she's no great shakes.

Up against the monstrous Trump and the only slightly less monstrous Cruz, she looks pretty good...but she's pretty ordinary really.

A run of the mill, not particularly inspiring - business as usual - type of candidate.

This sums up the US presidential campaign:

Here's an interesting article, pointing out that the rise of a man like Trump partially rides on the back of people like Clinton.

"No friend of labour, Trump benefits from the Clintons’ reliance on Wall Street cash and works it to his advantage: ‘Look at me,’ he shouts. ‘I’m too rich to be bought!’ The Clintons have snubbed their noses at ordinary people for decades now, mocking them with bromides about ‘the future of our global economy’, ‘internet freedom’ and business ‘innovation’, so they shouldn’t be surprised when a Trump comes along and rouses the hoi polloi to a rage..."

"This is no way to beat the Clinton couple, whose corruption and cynicism at times leaves me breathless. Over their long political careers, Bill and Hillary have been perpetually on the make and on the take — from Wall Street, from Walmart, from foreign governments via the Clinton Foundation — and Sanders can’t bring himself to say that clearly."

"...For one thing, Clintonism, in its dogged adherence to political deception, is in large measure to blame for the rise of Trump. The Clintons specialise in double-talk and hypocrisy. Promoting the virtues and ‘inevitability’ of globalisation is deeply cynical when incomes are stagnant or falling..."

"God knows why Bernie Sanders or Trump don’t ridicule Hillary’s six years of service on the board of Walmart, the gigantic retail chain that hates labour unions and loves buying cheap products made in China....As of 1 January a new, full-time entry-level ‘sales associate’ is paid $9 an hour. After completing Walmart’s ‘Pathways’ training programme, they are raised to a pharaonic $10 an hour..."

Foxy,

"With this in mind Hillary included in her book
voices that we don't hear often enough - voices of
people in every corner of the globe who want the
same things we all do: freedom from hunger, disease
and fear, freedom to have a say in their own
destinies no matter their DNA, or station in life."

"She writes, "I learned the importance of America's
engagement with the rest of the world, and I developed
relationships with foreign leaders and an understanding
of foreign cultures ... I also learned how to keep
focused while living in the eye of many storms."

How about this for US engagement with the destiny of other cultures:

"In Syria, militias armed by the Pentagon fight those armed by the CIA"

"Syrian militias armed by different parts of the U.S. war machine have begun to fight each other on the plains between the besieged city of Aleppo and the Turkish border, highlighting how little control U.S. intelligence officers and military planners have over the groups they have financed and trained in the bitter five-year-old civil war."

And I believe hunger, disease and destruction are the order of the day in Yemen, which at the moment is being pummelled by US and British supplied weapons deployed by the Saudis.

What does Hillary think about that I wonder?

I find it hard to believe that Americans would want to suffer another 8 years of what they have had with Obama; but of course, they have allowed enough free-loaders over the border who now have the vote mean that they might have to suffer a continuing disaster with Clinton.
