In reply to the discussion: When HRC was SoS one of her foreign policy advisors was famed neocon [View all]George II
(67,782 posts).....the poster did.
If there are doubts about his background, and there are, she should be in a position to clarify his background. She's the one who brought this up in the first place, not I.
The fact is that Kagan was NOT hired by Clinton, and he was NOT "one of her foreign policy advisors". Those are blatant distortions of his position with the State Department. But it's presented here in yet another in a string of unsubstatiated posts attempting to discredit Hillary Clinton and try to align her with neocon foreign policy.
To use a word that poster has used numerous times on this forum, it's "despicable" to present him as has been done in the OP.
Note too that the OP hasn't either been able or not wanted to explain anything about Robert Kagan other than the smear tactic of connecting him (implying that Clinton HIRED him!) to Hillary Clinton. That explains quite a bit.
Finally, by the way, Kagan is not generally known as a "leading neoconservative".
