(15,435 posts)BUT, I'm pretty much opposed to the Hillary 2016 bumper stickers! Just this year alone she's made some pretty of the cuff statements. Regardless if she's tried to walk them back or redefine what she said I feel she's even more hawkish than Obama! Unfortunately Obama, who actually voted against the previous war has been handed so much crap and very little help from a "do nothing" Congress I don't feel even he wants to go forward with much of what his strategy is. We have the 2014 elections coming up and I think he's trying to "split the baby" as best he can.
Which is NOT to say that I'm happy with where we find ourselves as a so called Super Power! Too many other countries seem pretty cowardly and unwilling to offer help. I can understand how they feel, but I want so badly for the MSM to actually report the HOW & WHY this mess began and point fingers at the real culprits!
I personally feel Hillary leans further to the right than Obama, and I know I'm to the left of Obama. I've come to feel sorry for him, angered that he has a Congress that does nothing but denigrate each and everything he tries to do simply to rile up American people. And I'm appalled that so many people can't see any further than their nose, willing to vote against their best interests if THEY VOTE AT ALL!
I do feel Repukes get the message, just vote for anything with an (R) beside their name and go merrily along their way! DLC Democrats and Democrats in general will follow "big dog" because he's shown he has true charisma and is a true threat to Repukes. Bring him on board, and it's Hillary no matter what.
I feel we need some competition and candidates who will run AGAINST her because I honestly believe she has a hawkish outlook on where this country should be.
JMHO!
