Hillary Clinton pitched her foreign policy to Republican voters in a speech to the American Legion on Wednesday, arguing that she would best uphold American values and protect national security interests.
At the veterans' group annual convention in Cincinnati, the Democratic presidential nominee called the United States an "exceptional nation," and accused Republican rival Donald Trump of thinking that approach is "insulting to the rest of the world."
Clinton said the country has a "unique and unparalleled ability to be a force for peace and progress." She questioned Trump's support for the military and hit him for his last-minute trip to Mexico Wednesday, saying it "takes more than trying to make up for a year of insults and insinuations by dropping in on our neighbors for a few hours."

Share with all your moderate and liberal family and acquaintances.
I watched the video of the speech. It would have put anyone to sleep and indeed she looks terrible.
After the speech, going about to shake hands, she looked disoriented. Did not see her handlers, but the host guided her around.
FReepers have shown the video of the gay pride parade when someone next to her slapped down her hand when she was rubbing the side of her nose. She was doing that rubbing the side of the nose today. I don’t know what that means, but since others have previously pointed it out, well, she did it today with no one to slap her hand down.
“Share with all your moderate and liberal family and acquaintances.”

Good idea. Mostly I have given up on the die-hards. Anything negative — aka truthful! — about Hillary only causes them to entrench all the more.
But I am constantly open to opportunities to inform the more open-minded undecided.
I have a theory:30 minutes before she was scheduled to screech..I mean speak...the SS confiscated all the hearing aid batteries.
For Hillary to claim she would “uphold national security interests” after selling her soul to a long list of foreign billionaires and governments is “The Big Lie”, pure and simple.
The only security interest she cares about is her foreign bank accounts.
I didn’t see how many folks were there, but the reaction to her ‘applause lines’ seemed very weak.
home sick - watched entire speech my thoughts
1) Hillary looks ill, really ill. Her Front View was okay, but in Profile she Looked deathly ill
2) what a horrible delivery, reminded me of some Middle Manager giving a 75 Slide Power Point presentation at 1500 on a Friday
(I'm a long-time American Legion member who wouldn't have sat and listened to her babble).
who was listening? Two Democrats pretending to be reporters, that’s who.
At least she’s running with the right crowd.
So she’s flip-flopping? I thought she was in agreement with Zero that there was nothing exceptional about America and we had no business being the policeman of the world? Is so-left-she’s-off-a-cliff Hillary moving back to the right again? Does she intend to draft dem and progressive voters for her wars or is she counting on volunteers?
She seems to have forgotten telling Egypt NOT to model their Constitution after the U.S. Constitution. Evidently she thinks we are not good enough for Egypt. Shall we continue to discuss foreign affairs......................
They’ve always used the photo ops while disregarding the people.

I believe Trump speaks tomorrow. He was scheduled to speak before Clinton but changed the date in order to go to Mexico today.
...she keeps touting them and telling us “we’re not like that”...
******************************
Same mantra used by Kerry and Obama, who often say “that’s not who we are”.
Didn’t Obama scoff at the idea that the United States was “exceptional” back in 2008 when he was running for POTUS?
