What are Hillary’s qualifications to be president? What accomplishments has she achieved as a United States Senator? None.
How about her achievements as Secretary of State? None. Reset with Russia was not only misspelled but mismanaged. Libya was a disaster beyond belief. Her shrill cry of “What difference does it make at this point?” that four Americans, including an Ambassador were killed showed how callous and duplicitous she is. Let’s take a closer look at Hillary Clinton.
Trustworthiness is a critical ethical value because it incorporates four separate values: honesty, integrity, promise-keeping and loyalty. The majority of the American people do not trust Hillary Clinton. She is dishonest. According to USA Today, 57% of the people do not view Hillary Clinton as trustworthy. In March 2014, 56% of the people thought her trustworthy. This is a complete about face by the American people on the issue of Hillary Clinton’s trustworthiness.
The question of Hillary’s integrity is critical. The American people see that Hillary believes in two sets of standards: one for the Clinton’s and one for everyone else. Her inability to explain her email practices while at the State Department. The New York Post reported that four in ten Democrats and six in ten independents agreed that “honest” was not the best word for Hillary.
Regarding Hillary’s promise-keeping, Hillary Clinton willingly violated an agreement with the Obama administration that the Clinton Foundation would not accept foreign donations.. The deal was designed to tackle concerns that foreign governments would influence the State Department by giving money to the Clinton Foundation. The Clinton Foundation accepted millions of dollars in foreign donations from countries that had special requests before Hillary Clinton. So much for promise-keeping. And as to loyalty, Hillary is loyal only to herself.
Hillary Clinton is too (questionably) rich. The questions about Clinton Foundation donations from sources that had business before Senator or Secretary Clinton keep growing. Hillary Clinton was involved in selling control of Uranium One, a Canadian company with uranium interests in the United States, and receiving $2.35 million from the Chairman of Uranium One. And Bill Clinton simultaneously received $500,000 from a Russian investment bank for one speech.
From the Wall Street Journal: “Among recent secretaries of state, Hillary Clinton was one of the most aggressive global cheerleaders for American companies, pushing governments to sign deals and change policies to the advantage of corporate giants such as General Electric Co., Exxon Mobil Corp., Microsoft Corp. and Boeing Co.
At the same time, those companies were among the many that gave to the Clinton family’s global foundation set up by her husband, former President Bill Clinton. At least 60 companies that lobbied the State Department during her tenure donated a total of more than $26 million to the Clinton Foundation, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of public and foundation disclosures.
The foundation resumed soliciting foreign governments after Mrs. Clinton left the State Department. The official name of the foundation was changed to the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation. Mrs. Clinton became a director. All told, the Clinton Foundation and its affiliates have collected donations and pledges from all sources of more than $1.6 billion, according to their tax returns. On Thursday, the foundation said that if Mrs. Clinton runs for president, it would consider whether to continue accepting foreign-government contributions as part of an internal policy review.”
Hillary Clinton’s health and age are of concern. Remember she allegedly hit her head while falling and suffered a concussion just before she was to testify before the subcommittee investigating the Benghazi debacle. Then she had to be readmitted to the hospital for an alleged blood clot associated with the head injury “as well as other issues.”
These other issues appear to be a history of fainting episodes, repeated blood clots, a thyroid condition, and cardiac cycle irregularities. It is obvious that Hillary’s weight is not helping her. She refuses to release her medical records. Her silence about her health is not only an insult to the American people but also a clear sign of Hillary’s lack of transparency, i.e., her lack of integrity.
Hillary Clinton is also too elitist. In 2014, she was proudly talking of the fact she had not driven a car in eighteen years. She also talks as if she’s not rich but she was raised in a very posh section of Chicago: Park Ridge. She went to Wellesly College and Yale Law School, both expensive schools. She and her husband have received over $1.5 billion in unearned income in the form of donations to their foundation.
She looked down on the military, ordering that no uniforms could be worn in the White House while she was First Lady. She abused Secret Service agents by forcing them to carry her bags. And, of course, her remarkably insensitive, shrill statement, “what difference does it make at this point?” denigrated brace State Department diplomatic and security personnel. As half of the former First Grifter team, she revels in being an elitist when she is in fact a crass con artist.
Hillary just had her “second launch” announcement of her intention to run for president. Her first launch announcement was in April. The re-launch announcement was in June. Obviously, the first launch failed.
And Hillary lies. She denounced the Supreme Court’s Voting Rights Act decision, falsely claiming that it invalidated laws permitting ballots to be translated into languages other that English.
She protested that the decision, along with voter ID laws passed by a number of states, was intended to suppress voting by minorities, while suppressing the facts that minority voting is up even in states with voter ID laws. And she conveniently omitted that fact that voter ID laws prevent only non-citizens from voting.
Hillary fails to disclose that Democrat administrations oversee Democrat plantations in major cities that have destroyed the black family, facilitated intergenerational poverty and destroyed economic opportunity for minorities.
Finally, Hillary seems tired all the time. Does she even have the energy to be president let alone run for the office? She is hateful: remember her enemy’s list? . And she is always angry and intolerant at something or someone.
Why would anyone want to live with her? Bill certainly doesn’t.
