Why don't people like Hillary Clinton?
I don't understand why people don't like Hillary. Is it because she's a woman and people don't want a woman leading the country or because of her husband which I thought was a great president by the way? Personally I like her and I see nothing wrong with her being president. I think it is time we see a woman as president anyway and she has been in the senate for a long time so I think she knows what she is doing. I may get some hate responses for this, but I AM voting for her. :)
Will Hillary run again in 2020 now that it is likely she would beat Trump in a rematch?
She does have a better chance to win, because the alternatives both with Trump and in the Democratic party line up, just don’t have the experience and qualifications. As people see it takes much more than rhetoric to run a government, it takes particular skill sets. Hillary has been in government for a long time and knows the internal and external politics of her party, too — she’s also one of the best fundraisers.Her name recognition also draws votes, in big cities and Timbuktu.What I really like is Hillary adapts, and learns fast. If she doesn’t know XYZ, she’s quick to learn the facts of issues. She’s also her own person and sets her own path, which is critical in leaders who have the burden of making live changing decisions. All advisors can do is advise, the executive has to make the actual decisions and campaign for those decisions.Hillary is well suited and well rounded to handle the POTUS role. I like that she can fight back and also wise enough to know when NOT to fight back.On the international stage she’ll excel due to her Secretary of State connections. Hillary gets more respect out of the USA, which considering the craziness of the Trump administration and the towel he threw in among other nations, would also be much more welcome. With all the women in politics now, no one is better to communicate with women than a woman executive, too.The only real fault I find in Hillary is her trust she places in her advisors. They have failed her more than anything else, and she needs to pick more wisely who she surrounds herself with as advisors. The advice she got in 2015–2016 was totally wrong, when she could’ve clenched the presidency if she picked advisors who didn’t give her what they thought she wanted, but laid down the hard facts.
Hillary Clinton?
Why are so many people against her? I have heard nothing but crap about her from the people at my school and yet the most valid reasons I have heard for disliking her so far are that she's a woman and bill clinton is her husband. Bill Clinton was a great president who made a mistake but america could use someone like him in office again. I asked someone why they hated Hillary and they simply said "she's a *****"? Does anyone else feel like she could be much farther ahead if she wasn't married to Bill Clinton?
What do you think about Hillary Clinton running again in 2020? Does she think she can win in 2020 or she is entitled?
A potentially disastrous idea. Mrs. Clinton already has had two chances at becoming president. First she lost from Barack Obama, a relative newcomer on the scene at the time. Then she lost from Donald Trump. Arguably the most awful candidate ever in American political history.How many times must the American electorate express their desire not to have her as president? Other people get one chance. Most get none. And no, America cannot afford another four years of Trump just because Hillary thinks that she has some God given right to be president.
Why can't we just let Hillary Clinton run again in 2020? Wouldn’t so many people love to see her beat Trump?
Come 2020, Hillary and Biden and Bernie will all be far past an age where they can successfully run—Trump was the oldest elected president in history, and Clinton is only slightly younger than Trump right now. Additionally, Clinton had some health issues during the campaign (disappearing for most of August and September, plus her purported pneumonia attack that had her fainting at a 9/11 event). Her health will be made an issue should she run in 2020. Biden and Bernie are both a few years older than Trump.Speaking of age: There are already allegations that Trump is showing signs of senile dementia—his irritability and his inability to use anything above a third or fourth-grade vocabulary are both thought of as markers for Alzheimer’s. If he is in fact deteriorating due to senility or Alzheimer’s, the electorate probably won’t be in the mood to replace him with someone over 74. The Dems do not have a youth candidate waiting in the wings, and it doesn’t help that the ‘young faces’ in the party are corporatist DLC types (more later) who are being shown the door in many states.And finally, the big factor that doomed Clinton’s run this time is that she was and continues to be tone-deaf. There’s a new book out on the Clinton Campaign called SHATTERED, and it paints a picture of dysfunction in her campaign. The fact is that Hillary and her inner circle didn’t have a reason to aspire to the presidency except for the fact that Clinton felt it was ‘her turn’. And the fact that Clinton was bested by an unknown African American candidate in 2008 and almost bested by an elderly outsider in 2016 should have told the DNC that she was not going to have a base except for the anybody-but-Trump crowd. In Shattered, there’s some ink devoted to the fact that post 2008, Bill Clinton sought to defeat Dems who were too ‘progressive’ for his tastes. the party is now a party of corporate hacks like Schumer and Pelosi.
Anyone else worried about Hillary Clinton?
I'm not an expert in polling America, but I don't think we are too preoccupied with getting a woman into the Presidency without making DAMN sure that she is qualified!!! We can barely pick the best MALE candidate, much less worry that the only woman candidate at the time get elected, I just don't think it's an issue!!! If the woman in question is qualified, then fine, but it seems to me she'lll have to work extra hard to prove herself just as worthy of all other candidates, just cuz she wants to be PREZ! Not fair, but ya know she'll have to do it!!! There will be doubters, there will be naysayers, when the RIGHT female comes along, there will be NO DOUBT! She will be elected based upon her ability to carry out the duties of The President, and NOT because there was pressure to elect a female!!!
