In reply to the discussion: White House: Clinton qualified to be president [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)24. I disagree. Hillary's recent statements such as her failure to affirm that Bernie is a Democrat
suggest to me that she does not have the tact or intelligent to be president.
Obama would never say or insinuate the nasty things about Bernie that Hillary has been saying and insinuating.
These low digs are the resort of a loser, of a vicious loser.
Hillary is alienating Bernie supporters with her loose tongue and her lack of graciousness and lovingness.
The technical aspects of being president are less important than the social ones.
Hillary fails on social graces.
It's not because she is a woman. Elizabeth Warren is a woman and succeeds when it comes to the social graces.
Obama is a man and is as kind and gracious as a person can be.
Hillary -- no. And that is why I do not think that she is qualified to be president.

Bernie's accusation wasn't legitimate. He blew his top because of a false headline.

This is like when Bill Clinton had to hold an "I am relevant" press conference.

Hillary is not qualified by temperament to take the flak that the president has to take.
