Hillary would be wise to steer clear of discussions involving our military, and the treatment of our Veteran's aftercare. It is her MAJOR weakness in this area that may very well allow Trump to steal this election. Of course, Trump may self-destruct before November comes, making this a moot point. The wisest nominee with the least mistakes will win this election, from this moment forward......

I thought Hillary's speech was slightly better than the Donald's. I give her a 6.5 out of 10, based on political objective and not talent.
She didn't do a bad job on the unity issue, and her attacks on the Donald came across as more politically acceptable criticism versus what Trump likes to do. Referencing the Founding Fathers was clever, though ironic, as Hillary represents a politician with far more in common with George III than Washington or Jefferson.
She is not a leader, in any sense. She's very hesitant to take a stand and tell you what she thinks you want to hear, and her list of "accomplishments" continue to center around her gender, which is quite clear to casual observers something she's taken full advantage of during her career. A number of her comments were lifted and paraphrased right from Trump's speech.
Anytime someone puts on the extended commercial of how human, sensitive, caring and empathetic they are, the more it portrays the truth - and that she's really a sociopath. She is not only a liar, she's completely untrustworthy.
So far from what we've heard at the two conventions, the campaigns are clearly on different sides of the issues on:
- immigration
- gun control
- college tuition
- climate change
The rest is pretty fuzzy, as both candidates waffled a bit on details for other issues. The Donald clearly shows he's more of a leader, though where he'd take the country is open for debate. We know Hillary, with her long and undistinguished public service career, would not effectively deal with many of today's problems, as she has hand in creating some and making others worse.

Copied directly from the report:
The Subcommittee concludes: • OneVoice Israel fully complied with the terms of its State Department grants. OneVoice designed and executed a grassroots and media campaign to promote public support for Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations for the Department, as it said it would. Under the grant, OneVoice expanded its social media presence, built a larger voter database, and hired an American political consulting firm to train its activists and executives in grassroots organizing methods in support of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. • The Subcommittee found no evidence that OneVoice spent grant funds to influence the 2015 Israeli elections
The report goes on to say: Soon after the grant period ended, however, OneVoice used the campaign infrastructure and resources built, in part, with State Department grants funds to support V15. In service of V15, OneVoice deployed its social media platform, which more than doubled during the State Department grant period; used its database of voter contact information, including email addresses, which OVI expanded during the grant period; and enlisted its network of trained activists, many of whom were recruited or trained under the grant.
The key words there are "After the grant period ended." OneVoice used the grant money to do what it told the State Department it would do. They doubled their social media platform; they expanded their voter contact database; they recruited and trained activists. Once the grant period ended, one voice still had all those assets. They used them in service of their stated goals which was to support peace negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians. Since Netanyahu is one of the obstacles to those negotiations why not work to defeat him?

How the hell can you think Trump is more credible on the military than Hillary Clinton? As he written some great treatise on military strategy that I missed? Did he present any innovative ideas on improving the military at any of the Republican debates? If so, I missed them. Does he have any experience in military budgets?
Hillary Clinton has that experience.
Committee on Armed Services (2003-2009)[2]
Subcommittee on Air land
Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities
Subcommittee on Readiness and Management Support
As Secretary of State Clinton had to coordinate with DOD on many issues.
A MAJOR WEAKNESS??? Only if you are living in opposite.land.

Experience does not equate to success. Trump is far more popular with the military voters, and Hillary's long list of experience with the DOD is grounds for her being responsible for failures with the F-35, LCS and now the USS Gerald Ford aircraft carrier. The Obama administration, as expected, as basically run the US military into the ground with out of control spending, lack of accountability and no oversight.
http://www.businessinsider.com/here-...-report-2015-3
http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/25/politi...ship-problems/
https://www.rt.com/usa/352639-us-car...lity-problems/
So it's fairly easy to make the case for Trump, a successful businessman, to be more efficient at running the military versus Hillary, who has a history of failure.

And being appointed to a committee does not equate to experience. What did she do to help the works of those committees? What did she contribute? What leadership or knowledge did she exhibit? How many committee meetings did she miss when she was running for president while still a Senator?
Why can no one provide any example of any accomplishment of note during her time in the Senate other than just being present from time to time?

Bill Clinton nods off during Hillary's speech. That's probably the closest he's come to sleeping with Hillary in many a year.

That's probably why Obama said that she was the best qualified candidate ever.
So after Obama, she is the second candidate of the trophy generation, where everyone gets an award for just showing up.

Two cops shot, 1 dead, in SD last night.
Must be a show of support for Hillary and the dems.

Most - love your comments on the military. What was her most important vote while in the Senate? Correct, the Iraq war vote. Please explain to me why she didn't read the latest NEI before casting her vote??? I wonder if her vote was political in nature. I don't like Trump's temperament, and I won't vote for him (or Hillary), but don't lecture us on Hillary's readiness to command the military. Don't you get it? She's typically very well informed, but she has very poor judgment.
Also, please don't change the topic to GWB or Reps - I'll gladly slam them on Iraq if you start a thread focused on their role. Let's focus on Hillary, just Hillary.

Rudy Giuliani says that "high-ranking police officers" in Philadelphia told him that uniformed law enforcement has thus far not been allowed on the convention floor.

Hillary's list of accomplishments is topped by the enabling of the growth of ISIS.
No debate on this.
BTW, she whined last night that Trump should make things at home, but forgot to mention her slime ball husband's involvement in NAFTA.
You remember, mostie, that giant sucking sound?
Face it, the Clinton Crime family has never done anything worthwhile.
