The only reason a handful of extremists label Hillary and other Dems like her as hawks is because they refuse to kowtow to those who think we should be weak-willed and inactive on the world stage.
Like President Obama, she will be measured and only take action when absolutely necessary... and the neocon warmongers will continue to scream. The type of nutjobs who complain about how Osama Bin Laden was killed will probably scream about a bunch of meaningless things as well.
Meanwhile, a majority of the country will be happy about not getting into another conflict like Vietnam or Iraq.
