Opinions on Hillary Clinton?

All I've heard about her is through people. I get the impression that she's a little bit of a.....poser. But I'm not that into politics, nor am I American

 

Well tbh I would not vote for her if I had a choice if I was American as she has shown herself in the past to make short sighted decisions and has a bit of a careless manner when speaking.

However it is going to be her or Donald Trump so yea... You decide =/

 

A hypocrite.

 

In a way that is any different from any other politician? Or do you hold her to a higher standard for some reason?

 

I know she's gonna be our next president.

 

Bought, corrupt, career politician who chooses her views based on how politcally convenient they are. Nothing but a puppet for the oligarchy.

 

Nope. I don't. What do I know, I'm only an American idiot. (!)

 

This

 

She is Machiavelli's "principessa". Every more she has made in her career has been calculated to bring about this moment. The money grab at the end of her term as First Lady and the calculating decision to "run" for position as NY's junior senator are just two examples of the undeniable contempt she has for the public. Much like Trump she will make a disastrous president. It is not a coincidence that she is referred to as America's Evita by many.

 

I don't like her much but I will definitely vote for her if she is the only one against Trump. Trump will probably put Muslims into concentration camps. ASSHOLE!

 

Hate her.

 

Did we really need yet another Hillary thread?

 

As bad as it seems that description describes most politicians. It would be somewhat unfair to call out Hilary for doing what the majority of politicians have done including our current president Barack Obama. I will give Bernie Sanders credit for being one of the most clean cut and credible politicians we have ever had.

I think Hilary would be a great president in some ways but in all reality i don't see her as presidential. Her husband was a great president and also a brilliant speaker. I think Hilary is terrible at expressing her views and she just seems desperate to get on the same page as Bernie when it comes to issues. I used to think Bernie does not stand a chance at the presidency but I no longer think that. Bernie is still a strong contender for the nomination and maybe even the presidency. I think there is too much baggage with Hilary and at least with Bernie you cannot find much baggage or scandals. It is hard for for democrats to keep the White House after 8 years of democratic control but Bernie probably does stand a better chance than Hilary even the polls show him in a decent position.

 

When Hillary loses the election, she will have lucrative employment as a clown.

If she does win, it's only because of the sexist middle aged women who are voting for her.

 

I dislike her.

 

I think she gets judged more harshly than male politicians doing the same stupid stuff. Say if a guy had planed to try for the presidency and for offices that would get them there they would be seen as ambitious. Ambition is a part of every politician, yet she is often viewed as manipulative for making the same sorts of decisions. I respect her for coming into enough power that she has the chance to run, not an easy thing to do as a woman. But I also think she has made some bad decisions along the way. Hopefully she has learned from those mistakes because I don't like any of the republican candidates, and I don't think Bernie is going to bet her in the primary.

 

I love her! :icon_bigg

 

She is far better than any Republican candidate in my opinion. Compared to Sanders I don't think she will hold up. Many have pointed out her political views appear to change as needed for political gain, taking money from big corporations, and in general she seems disingenuous. I read this somewhere and thought it was good. Clinton is the best candidate to keep things the way they are. Sanders is the best candidate for the country to grow.

 

I supported Obama in 2008 over her because I thought his tone of hope and change and bridge-building was more what we needed after eight years of George Bush. Having seen her work as Secretary of State, including her response to the Benghazi witch hunt, I see her now as someone who can talk tough publicly and work to build consensus behind the scenes. She is, in her words, a progressive who gets things done, and that is what I want my next president to be.
