As for Benghazi, I could see Obama being otherwise occupied and Hillary bungling it herself.


I think VJ/Obama promised the weapons to the bad guys, and Hillary had promised to buy them back from the good guys (I know, hard to believe Hillary was actually doing something 'right').
VJ/Obama let the bad guys know the deal was going down, and they went in and attacked. It was supposed to go down clean, but it got dirty. Once it escalated, VJ/Obama simply denied military assistance.
