Hillary Clinton criticizes partisan divide at Austin stop
Houston Chronicle ^ | June 20, 2014 | Mike Ward

AUSTIN - Sounding more presidential aspirant than book-selling author, former secretary of state and first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday excoriated the current partisan divide in U.S. politics that she insisted is crippling America's can-do spirit for the future.

"Our political system has to be fixed so we start working together again," she said at a packed performance hall speech that was repeatedly interrupted by cheers in Texas' Democrat-friendly capital city.

"We have to start acting like Americans. We're all on the same team."

During a 45-minute speech, Clinton criticized current politicians who she said underscore the fact they're right, in part "because they have a channel to the Divine" - an apparent reference to evangelical Republicans who are driving much of the criticism of Democrats such as herself.

A 'simple' vision

While she remained coy about her intentions to seek the Democratic nomination for president in two years, Clinton was asked what agenda she would recommend for the next president.

She then gave her vision for the job.

"I have a very simple vision: restore the American dream for the American people," she said to cheers and applause. "Restore our trust in people."...........

I know there is alot of cynicism here, but this woman, if she gets the nomination, is not going to be president. It's a combination of her crooked past, her incompetence whenever she was put in charge of anything, she isn't going to excite the young people who thought voting for the black guy would be cool, and the fact that she represents all that is wrong with DC

The truth is, 2016 is the GOP’s to loose. The public is hungry for something more than a GWB, BHO, or a Hillary Clinton. No more Doles, or Romneys, also

Why should we work with someone who is pulling in the wrong direction?
Why should we cooperate with someone who only creates more problems?
Isn't this the woman who yelled "Dissent is Patriotic!"?
Of course, Bush was in office then.

Sounding more presidential...

The Houston Chronicle is spewing the DNC talking points. Mike Ward is a political hack who is/was trying to take down Governor Perry.

Sounding Presidential? Hillary Clinton is a stumbling, old drunk who willfully facilitated the death of 4 Americans in Benghazi, Libya.

Mike Ward is just another walking dead drone of the MSM, zombie media, Zeedia.

True, as they always do. The title above is at the article, below is the website Front Page tease title linking to the story:

No, it was the Bent One who said that in his letter of resignation from the Arkansas ROTC program. No doubt Cankles believes it too but Slick was the one who said it.

Quote:

"I am writing too in the hope that my telling this one story will help you to understand more clearly how so many fine people have come to find themselves still loving their country but loathing the military, to which you and other good men have devoted years, lifetimes, of the best service you could give. To many of us, it is no longer clear what is service and what is disservice, or if it is clear, the conclusion is likely to be illegal."

Signed,

RIPOTUS, Slick Willie

" "Hillary Clinton stops in Austin, reveals what's killing America"

That's rich. How about "Hillary Clinton reveals what's killing American ambassadors".
