Related: About this forumTYT on the biggest fake controversy of this election cycle
I would love for Clinton supporters to watch and respond to this video. Is this fake controversy worse than her behavior during the 2008 primaries? Can we compare the horrible, racist things she said about him then, or the fact that she often focused on how unqualified he was, to this comment?

In HRC's comment, the question is: Does HRC feel that any in the GOP field are qualified for POTUS?
If the GOP are unqualified, then SBS stands somewhere between HRC and unqualified GOP people.
SBS could either be qualified or not.
If some of the GOP are qualified, then that not only validates the GOPers but then says that SBS is qualified.
Unless this is clarified, that entire statement is complete bullshit!

She never answers the qualification point, just dances around it, leaving it open for personal interpretation.
In a couple of my English and Poli-Sci courses, we had to decipher rhetoric--the art of persuasion and doublespeak!
We were graded on this and it now pops out whenever I see it being deployed.
Those who fail to grasp its use are the targets of it.
