Clinton didn’t even come CLOSE to making a foreign policy decision for the first two years he was in office, according to Morris. I sure as hell think Heman’s ability to staff well is superior to anyone in the bunch. But I think they would bring different strengths. I was excited that Mr. Newt decided to run. I’d have no trouble voting for him—or any of them for that matter, except the one who must be referred to as mittens.
Clinton was pre 9/11, everything changed for me that day. While this election will be won or lost on American pockets the world is a very dangerous place still. I am not comparing Obama and Herman here but look at the damage Obama has wrought in the Middle East and Africa. Jihadists and sharia are ascendant and Obama will lose same to Iraq as he has in Egypt and Libya. I like Herman but would just feel more comfortable with a guy making policy decisions about Iran, Iraq and Israel with some historical and current knowledge about same.
But for the record no candidate thrills me and my vote will be an anti Obama vote no matter who runs against him.
