Forums - Politics - Hilary Clinton : Would she fail horribly as President?

I'll take any president that ain't Bush. People actually kinda liked us when Bill was in office but man did that change. They say Hillary has connections with the Mafia, maybe that'll get things done around here. Send Putin's finger to his wife or something in the mail.

Hillary Clinton on the Colbert Report

 



She's nothing more than a dirty snake. But I admit I want a Democratic president so that after President Crazy CooCoo Bananas leaves office his party will be blamed for the high taxes rates and low unemployment that is soon to come.

Bush as much as he was at times a buffoon was blamed for the Clinton administrations wrongdoings who gave loans to people who had no business getting loans and keeping the interest rates low for so long that when they sky rocketed people lost their homes and Bush was blamed.

So in a way I would like to see Democrats destroy America even more so. To answer your question yes Ryan she will fail horribly just like Barry has.



I would really prefer if 2012 Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson won his lawsuit against the Commission on Presidential Debates and got actual campaigning money and actually won the next election, but since that won't happen, it's hard to say.

I think Hilary would be a much better President than Bush and Obama. I think she has similarities to both Presidents from the 90's. The good things about out Presidents from the 90's that the 2000's Presidents were lacking were simple. Unlike Bush 43, Bush 41 had decades of political experience by the time he became President and was actually a very diplomatic guy. Also, unlike his son, Bush 41 had a very good understanding of how the world worked. When he felt the need to go to war (a war which was far more justified than the 2003 Iraq war), he actually worked with the UN and other Arab countries. When the mission was complete, he sent his troops home instead of invading Iraq and having as he put it "a civil war where the Americans would be bogged down for many years". It's a perfect example of when a kid should have listened to his parents. With Clinton, he had the ability to actually work with his Republican counterparts, unlike Obama. This collaboration collapsed after the Lewinski scandal, but it was good for a time. The economy was doing great and Americans had a lot of confidence.

The bad thing about both Bush 41 and Clinton is that they both supported the North American Free Trade Agreement which kind of fucked us over. Nonetheless, I think Hilary probably has both good and bad qualities shared by the 41st and 42nd Presidents and would at least be an improvement over the 43rd and 44th Presidents.

Depends on the congress in session, Not the president.

that is absolutely inacurate

 

you can see below that carter left a decreasing hh debt that reversed during reagan's first mandate (1981-1985) and sky-rocketted under his second term (1985-1989) and under Bush (2001-2009) when both inherited a better economy than they left behind

 

under that criteria (US household debt) it is clearly the GOP "giving the loans"

Epically one-sided. Clinton would steam-roll Palin in every state not called Alabama/Texas/Alaska.

The only way for her not to fail, as in progress a liberal democrat agenda, is if the democrats hold a majority in the house and a super majority in the senate for at least the whole of her first term. The democrats are so lilly livered that unless they vastly outnumber republicans they cave in to republican threats and bluster and they get very little done, at least very little that fits with a progressive agenda. It's as if once the Democratic party lost their dixiecrats they also lost their spine.

But that's true of almost all democrat presidents. Seems to me that things are least dysfunctional when you have a Republican president and a Democrat congress.

Does she even want to run? The last interview I saw of her talking about this she acted like she wasn't completely positive if she was up to it. Either if she decides not to run or to run I don't really care. She's most likely not the worst candidate, but she's also not the "best."



She couldn't manage her own husband. And do you think she can run a huge country after that? )))
