Interesting how you have to so completely distort her policy positions to justify your vote.
Whenever I see this kind of thing, it only reinforces that the opposition to her has nothing to do with policy. People who care about policy actual bother informing themselves on the policies they claim to oppose.

or any politician. The OP is premised on supposed declarations by Clinton that "No, we can't." The argument is that she argues against all of the above, which is demonstrably false, as the link I provided demonstrates.

You can choose to disbelieve her all you want, but that has nothing to do with policy or evidence. As fact checking sites demonstrate, she is more truthful than her opponent. http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511462712

She says no we can't to everything while simultaneously saying she will get things done.

She is all things to all people.
