Many people are understandably concerned about this years presidential election. Some are saying the two chief candidates are the worst available choices in decades. It's often said that elections are not so much about voting for who you favor, but more about voting against who you disfavor. In other words, voting for the lessor of two evils.
Some have decided to boycott the election altogether. This is a copout and negates the individual from participating in discussions, as they have opted out of the process. Not making a decision, is making a decision.
One of the justifications people have used to support Hillary Clinton vs Donald Trump is she has experience. Just because someone has experience, does that mean they deserve to be the most powerful person in the world? Also, one has to evaluate their experience, to determine if what they have previously done merits greater responsibility, and reward.
One of the flashpoint issues of the day is terrorism. First off, since Trump has not served in public office, his experience with terrorism cannot be evaluated. Yet, he has made his views regarding terror quite clear.
Hillary, on the other hand, has significant experience, which includes serving as Secretary of State from 2009 2013.

Indeed it is true that Hillary Clinton has experience. The question begs is the knowledge of and financial support for ongoing murder of innocent lives (which includes Americans) the type of experience that justifies electing her president?

On Hillary’s part, criminal tradecraft is not legitimate “experience” with respect to terrorism nor any other sort of violence perpetrated against the innocent.
Trump should have a short summary of that an roll it out during the debates.
Experience will probably be the first question. Hillary can say she was on the scene; Trump can point to the results of her being on the scene.
To anyone paying any kind of attention, the results of Hillary’s experience are the main disqualifier against her - but just the first of many.
How does one lease evil, or two evils? Is that like leasing two cars?
I am now 100% convinced that the reason Hillary racked up a record number of flying miles was that this permitted her to serve as her own bribery “bagman.”
Who is going to question the Secretary of State’s personal lackeys getting back onto her airplane with a few new suitcases (full of cash, diamonds etc)?
Who is going to demand to inspect the new luggage, if these lackeys are in her personal entourage, after returning from another Hillary “engagement” at another sultan’s palace?
Hillary has the experience of watching 4 Americans die in Benghazi.
Left them hang out to die because she and Obama were covering up arming jihadists.
Hillary’s State Dept “experience” (with Obola’s approval) left a Marine to sit in a Mexican jail for years on a trumped up arms charge.)
The Lefts’ meme that Mr. Trump is evil, hehe
“First off, since Trump has not served in public office”
Forefathers meant for the average person to be elected to office because they were in touch with the average person, serve a few years and return to the private sector, not to make public office a career.
I have it on good authority that Hillary’s first, ahem, “experience” with Bill didn’t go so good.
“That’s it? We’re done? Gosh, I’ve still got two and a half minutes to wait for my three minute egg to cook. You promised me fireworks and all I saw was Walther Cronkite telling me the stock market was down.”
Hitlery’s experience is about 99% in running an extortion racket on an international scale. That’s not what I want in a President.
Her senatorial experience is nothing. Did not contribute to any legislation of any significance. The fix was in (with Lazio) to get her elected in the first place.
She has no experience or qualifications.
She’s where she’s at because of marriage. Period.
Trump on the other hand has built one of the world’s best companies and has an a record of accomplishment. It doesn’t bother me a whit he’s never been elected. We are supposed to have “citizens” run for office, not a permanent class of politicians.
Al Capone ran a second hand furniture business Hillary runs a foundation yep experience counts.
Piling up frequent flyer miles is not necessarily acquiring experience unless you are the one flying the plane.
In my opinion we cannot overlook the harm done by our State Dept in pushing its pro-homosexual agenda to countries who find the practice deeply offensive. Certain African countries come to mind. We were extremely insulting to their leaders in that regard. Add, also, our pressuring Egypt to reinstate Morsi. Unbelievable. We’ve lost all credibility in the Middle East and Africa.
What the author should have said instead of lessor is lesser.
The legal definition of Lessor is:
: a person who conveys the possession of real or personal property under a lease
lesser
Simple Definition of lesser
: of smaller size
:: of less strength, quality, or importance
Full Definition of lesser
: of less size, quality, degree, or significance : of lower status
The only way to view Hitlery the Harridan’s experience is that she is an EPIC FAIL!
FRom the time she FAILED her first bar exam until the present, she has FAILED virtually every task she has undertaken, except keeping Slick Willy and herself out of prison and raising vast sums of money for the Clinton Crime Syndicate!
“Killary reached the height of the Peter Principle when she was Secretary of State.”
She reached that level when she was accepted to law school
