she's tough, she's unrelenting, she knows how to wield diplomacy to benefit our country and the rest of the world. The fact that President Obama chose her to be his Secretary of State, tells me everything I need to know about her experience and judgment.

With Madam President Clinton at the helm, I feel safe.
