86. Think about this
Hillary’s candidacy divides. It plays right into the hands of the Republican party and their grand plan to continue dividing America. She is as polarizing a figure as possible. George Bush beat Al Gore, and even though Gore was running as the candidate who would continue peace and prosperity, he was colored by being a part of the drama of the Clinton years, Monica gate, all the other Bimbo’s gate, lying under oath, and getting impeached.
The Democrats have lost seats in congress every election after the Clintons came to power, including control of the House after Bill’s first term. That trend continued as they lost the Whitehouse. The Republicans don’t really care if Hillary wins, they know she won’t really change things, and that in 4 - 8 years they can regain control of the Whitehouse and continue their divisive politics that she will not change.
How is it possible to take money and endorsements from Richard Mellon Scaiffe and Rupert Murdoch, along with more money from PAC and special interest groups then ny other candidate Republican or Democrat, and be considered an agent of change?
How can you challenge Fox News and demand a return to the fairness doctrine in the media when you are indebted to Rupert Murdoch?
How can you have a Healthcare plan that puts people first when you are indebted to the insurance companies?
How can you inspire people to greatness when you appeal to their fears?
How can you challenge China on trade and human rights abuses when your economic policy plays right into their hands, and you have been on the board of directors of Wal Mart?
How can you be an agent of change when you’re invested in what needs to be changed?
Hillary accuses Obama of being nothing but rhetoric, but look at her actions and think if this is the direction the country needs to go… the same way it’s been going.
