If Hillary Clinton should enter the Oval Office as president, just think what will happen to the Supreme Court and America for generations.
Right now, the balance of the Court is evenly divided between those whose thoughts lean closer to those of the late Justice Scalia and those on the opposite end of the spectrum, who would use the courts to impose the agenda of the progressive left.
The very nature of our government and our society will be fundamentally and fatally impacted should Hillary Clinton become the next president. She will select leftist justices to replace existing justices as they leave the bench.
For the first time in history, essential elements of the Bill of Rights would be directly threatened. Freedom of speech would be targeted; Hillary Clinton is on record as supporting legislation that would ban criticism of Islam under the guise of "protecting religious freedom."
The Second Amendment would be gutted, likely reinterpreted protecting only the right to bear arms solely within the context of belonging to a "well-regulated militia" (i.e., the National Guard or similar organizations), a position long favored by the progressive left.
A tectonic shift has occurred in the balance of power in the Middle East. These changes are not in our favor and have resulted from the disastrous policies of President Obama, who has deliberately engineered a forced United States retreat from that vitally strategic region of the world.

A Court staffed for generations by a President Hillary would complete Obama’s fundamental transformation of our homeland.
Individual rights and equality under the law would be but hazy memories, as the entire national political structure becomes a mechanism for fiat rule by the hard Left.
Game over. Lights Out. Dead Nation.
There will be a civil war or a nuclear war where we will be utterly destroyed by China and Russia should she get in.
Clinton belongs in jail and the Democrats must be destroyed as an organization.
You called it correctly.
Author needs to read the Declaration Of Independence. There are specific instructions on what to do in case this happens. We are not stuck forever with a government hostile to individual liberty.
If our freedom depends on the outcome of one election, we don’t have a republic.
Once the entirety of the Bill of Rights is ruled Unconstitutional, and that is the reality of what will happen with a left majority on the Court, there is no getting it back. Tremendous institutions and Bureaucracies will be rapidly built on the new Constitutionless system and they cannot later be undone. Electing a Democrat to the presidency at this time is the splat at the foot of the cliff.
“If our freedom depends on the outcome of one election, we don’t have a republic.”
We have had a republic IN NAME ONLY for a long time already!
A republic rests on the rule of law and the law has been only what a small group of criminals say it is for many years now.
I feel confident that no matter what the dictates of DC might be toward gunowners across the nation, my own Sheriff would not enforce gun restrictions for sure, nor any of his deputies.
But when Supreme Court announces that there is no individual right to own a gun, so they say turn them in it is against the law to own a gun or have one in your house, then its a whole new ballgame. Eventually my Sheriff will not be reelected, what I envision and am fearful of, is when they do eventually find my "cache" of guns in my house that I have not turned in, what then?
They get to ransack my house, force me to open my safes and take me and my guns to the police department. I get charged, have to mount a defense and loose my house and all I have worked for, in legal fees to end up in jail. Not confident at all that you or anyone else will come to my defense till it happens to you.
If the current electorate does not remotely share the values of the Republic’s founders, then the Republic is over.
Our elites, both Democrat and GOPe, have imported a new third world population that is hostile to notions of individual rights and equality under the law.
Agree.
