Clinton's Speech Shows that Only Sanders is Fit for the Presidency (Rat spat alert)
Huffington Post ^ | June 5, 2016 | Jeffrey Sachs

Hillary Clinton's recent foreign policy speech was an attack on Donald Trump but was also a reminder that Clinton is a deeply flawed and worrisome candidate. Her record as Secretary of State was one of the worst in modern US history; her policies have enmeshed America in new Middle East wars, rising terrorism, and even a new Cold War with Russia. Of the three leading candidates, only Bernie Sanders has the sound judgment to avoid further war and to cooperate with the rest of the world.

Clinton is intoxicated with American power.

[Snip]

Clinton lacks all self-awareness of how poorly she performed as Secretary of State.

[Snip]

Clinton declared that she has a plan to defeat ISIS, but ISIS wouldn't even exist were it not for Clinton's "regime change" policy in Syria.

[Snip]

Clinton rightly accused Trump of being unpredictable, yet Clinton is dangerously predictable.

>>Those poor Rats are in deep disarray right now ... <<

This election cycle has exposed so-called “political pundits” and experts to be the hack guessers we all knew them to be all along.

By now her hitlerness was supposed to have a clear field to the presidency while the Republican contest was going to acrimony and fighting, gouging and spitting all the way until the last day of the last primary.

FEEL THE BERN!!! (o please o please o please)

Well, at least some of them see Hillary for who she really is. Too bad they don’t recognize that the problem is the underlying philosophy.

Hillary is intelligent, and she has used the trappings of socialist ideology for personal gain. Her personal beliefs are unknowable, because she is a manipulative opportunist.

Sanders, OTOH, is a true believer. He is nowhere near as intelligent as Hillary (because those who are smart enough to understand the ideology know it is unworkable, even as they exploit it for power and influence). His actions as a true believer president would be every bit as damaging as Hillary’s, but for a different reason. Policy disasters would result because his lack of intellect would make him default to the ideological decision on everything.

Those were the hard-core prominent leftie sites that I could recall. DU has remained hard-core while Huff`n`Puff has attempted to don the cloak of objectivity - probably to compete with sites like The Hill and Politico who pretend to be objective (non-partisan) but are overwhelmingly leftist.

Bernie makes me more nervous than Hillary.

For the same reason-true believer.

Bernie Sanders will, without a shadow of a doubt, send America spiraling downward into Venezuela-style socialism.

With utterly predictable results.
