(57,936 posts)I very much like what Hillary Clinton is trying to do for women and children around the world. I do not want her to be the president. She and Bill represent and advocate for ideas that fit the 1990s. The problems we face now are very different from the problems we face now. And some of the worst problems we now face are due in great part to policies that were promoted, people who decided policies and laws and trade arrangements enacted or entered into during Bill Clinton's presidency.
I have often said that Hillary is politically tone-deaf at least when it comes to most Americans, Americans who are not part of the D.C. elite. She does not know what is going on out here. If she did, she would oppose fracking.
We need a candidate with ideas that will deal with the problems in 2016, not one that will deal with the problems or perceived problems of 1996.
