70 Nobel Laureates Endorse Hillary Clinton

By ALAN RAPPEPORT OCT. 18, 2016

A group of the world’s leading experts in science, medicine and economics threw their support behind Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, endorsing the Democratic presidential candidate and arguing that her election is crucial for safeguarding freedom and preserving a constitutional government.

The forceful endorsement came in a letter signed by 70 Nobel laureates hailing from a variety of fields and making the case that Mrs. Clinton is the candidate who best understands the importance of investing in science and technology at a time when the world faces challenges on several fronts. The letter made no mention of Donald J. Trump, but it suggested that policies that show a lack of appreciation of scientific knowledge could damage America’s prestige and national security.

“We need a president who will support and advance policies that will enable science and technology to flourish in our country and to provide the basis of important policy decisions,” they wrote.

The Nobel winners included such prominent names such as the chemist Peter Agre, the economist Robert J. Shiller and the physicist Robert Woodrow Wilson. They pointed to global concerns such as cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and climate change as problems that require American investment and innovation.

Mr. Trump has described climate change as a “hoax” perpetrated by China.

The fact that the Nobel laureates are backing Mrs. Clinton does not come as a big surprise, as academics overwhelmingly tend to lean Democratic.

Obama was given the Nobel Peace Prize his first year in office.

Can we Expect Hillary Clinton to be given her 'Prize' in 2017? Or perhaps on November 8, 2016?

Yeah, I can really see an undecided voter at this point having this tip them over the edge to Hitlery because of the massive respect a Nobel winner wields (snicker).

OTOH, if they are still “undecided” they must be pretty ignorant to begin with so maybe this will help her — but not nearly enough.

Peace prizes, music awards, academic achievement awards, are mostly just the liberal left extolling other liberals. (Hillary and Bill Clinton were both Rhodes Scholars. Review the list and try to find one conservative.) The Nobel prize is now a political joke. Liberals corrupt all that they touch and they want to touch everything. Many churches, “conservative” foundations (like Annenberg) and organizations have become pawns of the left; infiltrated and corrupted.

Always thought the nobel peace prize was quite an accomplishment until they gave it to the a##clown for breathing and being black and the rest of the a holes sat up and endorsed the biggest criminal in American history

Climate change is a hoax perpetrated not by China but by the liberal media and by those seeking to make a fortune by pretending it exists.

Pointy-headed, isolated, ivory-tower liberals who have no clue about how the real world works "tend to lean Democratic"? What a rare candid admission by the N.Y. Slimes.

OK. Since I am a redneck and really don’t know what a nobel laureate is, (heard of the peace prize)I will now assume they are lunatics.

Do they all endorse Satanistic rituals with child murder
and rape, too?

Or were their names forged?
