Showing Original Post only (View all)Hillary Clinton has anger issues [View all]
For a long time we have seen the Clintons fighting the Republicans constant onslaught of attacks. We have seen Bill Clinton's affairs publicised for all of the world to see. Then we went thru Monica.
She has been personally attacked as 1st Lady for taking an active role in the advisement and then the her pet healthcare proposal. Which of course failed dismally. She was criticises for her hats and her always changing her hairstyles.
She has always taken a back seat to Bill. He has always been the star.
She snaps out in "ugly" anger....her constant, measured control breaking. She is more aggressive than need be in her foreign policy. This is widely acknowledged and been blamed on her wanting to look strong enough to be able to be equal in a man's world. I think that is part of her problem with seeming so cold and scripted. Over the years she has lost the feeling of freedom and confidence to feel secure with who she is, or was to be able to present that part of her. This is not to bash Hillary Clinton or to make excuses for her either. In life we always make choices. Some of the choices that we make, we make because of circumstances out of our control. If there are enough of those unforeseen circumstances, we can become very sheltered, closed off and even changed to a point.
Being in Bill's shadow all of this time and then aspiring to be, as he was, President of the United States has got to be extremely nerve-racking. Worried about being compared to him and wondering if she will measure up to his "popularity" "at least with the Dems". I think that she is walking a tightrope.
I was a very staunch supporter in the 90's and into early 2000, until Obama. Time went on and things came out, more and more, I started to become very disenchanted with the Clintons.
I look at Jimmy Carter and I cannot say enough good about him. He made mistakes in his presidency but who doesn't. His life after the presidency has shown who this man is deep in his soul. That is the kind of person that I want to represent me and my country. The Carters make me proud and they have set an example for the American People.
