In listening to the speechs made by each canidate over the last weeked I think HIllary has the most experience so far this year in thinking about solutions, after listening to what people have to say.
Most experience "in thinking about solutions"? That's the biggest bunch of crap I've heard in a long time.

Quote:
She has what is called the best "roller desk file" of important names of people and who to call to get things done in Washington and around the world.
The President of the United States of America has an infinite list of names to call to get things done. They are the President.

Furthermore, Clinton has a gigantic list of political enemies, whereas Obama does not.

Quote:
Needless to say none of the canidates have experience directing military activities or acting as a President, but a least Hillary has some insight into what that is all about, being she was a first lady and could sit in on a number of coversations her husband had with local and world leaders, and so she is comfortable in doing that and knows what to expect.
Laughable. A First Lady does nothing with regard to governance. Her experience with diplomacy consists of arranging flowers and hiring caterers (and lying about it later, i.e. Bosnia). Your argument is as stupid as saying Melinda Gates could write the next edition of Windows.

Quote:
But Hillary, has solutions that she has been working on for ages, she started working on ideas for better health care even before Bill Clinton became President, and she is interested in working hard and getting things done, more so then working on how to write flowering speeches.
Like the health care plan she "worked on" 15 years ago that went nowhere? That's great experience...

Quote:
Plus, she does have the back-up experience of Bill Clinton who was in fact a two term President, we cannot totally count out that factor.
Yes, we can. Why don't you ask someone from New York (ahem...) how that "back-up" has served her in doing ANY of the things she promised for her constituents? Near as I can tell, she doesn't even show up in NY unless someone is giving her an award of some kind. It has gotten so bad New Yorkers have nicknamed her the "silent Senator"...

Quote:
Although Obama is sometimes supported because he would be the first black person ever elected for that position, which would be a change, he is still a man and thinks like any other male, not much different then how white men think. Women have a certain kind of quite wisdom that is unique to their gender, which we have never experienced in American politics until recently. I sort of like how the intelligent women frame things in the way the think, and what they advocate on the whole, along with their determination. That kind of experience no man can have. But I do not like the way all women think because they can get pretty cold and judgemental with their gossip and no one wants to get on the nagging side of a woman's wrath. But I think Hillary has that under control. She seems to be happy and upbeat most of the time.
Voting for someone because of their gender = idiotic.

Quote:
So when Hillary talks about being ready on day one I think she is talking about her experience that was gathered together by planning ahead, and by being familar with the workings of the White House, and poltics in Washington.
She wasn't that familiar with the workings of the White House, otherwise she would have known her husband was getting head from an intern.


Don't forget... Lawyers were writing the Constitution while doctors were still bleeding people with leeches...
