I ask for accomplishments, you list titles. Such a puppet. Simple question that you cannot answer. So simple. So telling.

Not just titles. Real jobs, idiot. With major league responsibilities. Called relevant experience for a Presidential candidate. I could list 50 accomplishments and you'd just come back and try to stain them or deny them. Not a very useful way for me to spend my time.

You're free to read her entire bio if you like. Too many accomplishments to list here. She did a good job as Sec of State and New York was very happy with her performance as a US Senator. Your post actually underscores how qualified she is -- First Lady, US Senator, Sec of State, not to mention all of the other work she did prior to those posts.

Yes, she did a great job and has tens of millions to show what a political whore she is. Oops I mean an effective politician she is.

Isn't that how this thread goes? One side makes a statement, the other side discredits the source.

The only difference is you didn't even bother to use a source. You just made an ambiguous statement and got called out on it. Then you gave up.

(inserting a tee-hee bwahahawahah here as I think that's how this is supposed to go)

I understand where you're going, but "how" should be articulated.

Reduce taxes on Corporations

Reduce spending on Government assistance especially on those who are not disabled and of working age.

Stop trying to ban legal guns and limit legal gun ownership.

Close the borders. Let ICE and the Border Patrol do their job. No more "sanctuary" cities. On the contrary, if you refuse to enforce Federal Law, you lose Federal funding.

Stop making stupid trade deals and demand an equal playing field from our economic partners.

Use part of the decrease in social program spending to re-invest in the military.

Do not allow the DOJ to become the govt advocacy arm of the latest left leaning protest group of the day.

Pretty simple.

From the opponent himself...

Trump’s animosity toward her is relatively new. Over the years, Trump has had a lot of nice things to say about his opponent. In fact, he has just as long a history (if not longer) of supporting Clinton than he does of blaming her for ruining the world.

He has been so consistent with his praise in the past two decades that last month the Hillary Victory Fund — a joint fundraising committee between the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign — used his compliments in a political ad with the tagline "Donald Trump: occasionally right."

His comments date back at least to 1997:

1997: The introduction of his 1997 book The Art of the Comeback includes a picture of Trump and Clinton with the caption: "The first lady is a wonderful woman who has handled pressure incredibly well."

Now: Trump has repeatedly said Clinton does not have the temperament or stamina to be president, strongly implying that she would crack under pressure. Once he even suggested that she takes too many naps to be president.

2005: Trump made a point to invite Hillary and Bill Clinton to his third wedding, to Melania Trump, demanding their presence.

Now: Clinton says she attended the wedding on a whim. Trump says they had to be there because he donated to the Clinton Foundation.

2007: In the lead-up to the 2008 presidential election, Trump was torn between supporting two seemingly opposite New Yorkers: former Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Clinton. He told CNN he thought Clinton was "very talented": "They’re both terrific people, and I hope they both get the nomination." He went on to say that Clinton would be able to negotiate a good deal with Iran.

Now: Trump thinks the Iran deal is one of the worst deals ever negotiated. Talented is likely not a word you would hear him use in reference to Clinton.



2008: Throughout 2008, Trump consistently praised Clinton, calling her "smart" and "tough," and blogging that she would make a great president or vice president. In an interview with Fox News’s Neil Cavuto, he said, "I support Hillary. I think she’s fantastic," BuzzFeed uncovered.

Now: Trump’s evaluation of Clinton is far from "fantastic" these days. On the campaign trail, he often says she is "unbalanced" and "unstable": "Unstable Hillary Clinton lacks the judgment, temperament and moral character to lead this country — and I believe that so strongly," Trump said in Iowa this month. "She's really pretty close to unhinged, and you've seen, you've seen it a couple times. The people in the background know it, the people who know her know it and she's like an unbalanced person."

2012: When President Obama was running for reelection in 2012, Trump spoke very highly of Clinton's abilities as secretary of state: "Hillary Clinton I think is a terrific woman," Trump told Fox News’s Greta Van Susteren. "I am biased because I have known her for years. I live in New York. She lives in New York. I really like her and her husband both a lot. I think she really works hard. And I think, again, she’s given an agenda, it is not all of her, but I think she really works hard and I think she does a good job. I like her."

Now: Of course, now Trump blames Clinton and Obama for laying the groundwork for ISIS, among other things.

Apparently you don't understand what an accomplishment is. The lone accomplishment you state was a piece of legislation that was passed by Congress while she was first lady. She supported legislation that got sponsored and passed by others.

You convinced me! Hillary is awesome!

New poster . It has been pointed out that one thing the emails showed that didn't get attention is she did the work.....many hours (time stamps) and granular detail.

It qualifies her. Sorry cons. No more Reagan or boy idiot GW presidencies. Obama did the work too

Although her major initiative, the Clinton health care plan failed, it certainly set the groundwork for the health care law we have today, the Affordable Care Act. And she played a leading role in advocating the creation of the State Children's Health Insurance Program, which provides state support for children whose parents cannot provide them with health coverage. She promoted nationwide immunization against childhood illnesses. She also played a leading role in creation of the Adoption and Safe Families Act and the Foster Care Independence Act. She encouraged older women to seek a mammogram for early detection of breast cancer (which is covered by Medicare) and successfully sought to increase research funding for prostate cancer and childhood asthma at the NIH. She worked to investigate illnesses that were reportedly affecting Veterans of the Gulf War; now commonly known as Gulf War Syndrome. And she created an Office on Violence Against Women at the Department of Justice. She is also the first first lady to hold a post graduate degree, and she traveled to more countries than any other first lady had at that time.





[See a collection of political cartoons on defense spending.]


As a U.S. senator, she was the first first lady to be elected to this office. She was instrumental in securing $21 billion in funding for the World Trade Center site's redevelopment. She subsequently took a leading role in investigating the health issues that 9/11 first responders were facing.



After visiting soldiers in Iraq, Clinton noted that the insurgency had failed to disrupt the democratic elections held earlier, and that parts of the country were functioning well. Noting that war deployments were draining regular and reserve forces, she cointroduced legislation to increase the size of the regular Army by 80,000 soldiers to ease the strain and supported retaining and improving health benefits for veterans. She also she introduced the Family Entertainment Protection Act.


That was just in her first term. She was easily re-elected and accomplished much in her second term as well. And who can forget her run for the presidency, receiving more than 17 million votes during the nomination process?

As our secretary of state, Clinton visited 112 countries, helping to repair a badly damaged U.S. reputation. She advocated an expanded role in global economic issues for the State Department and cited the need for an increased U.S. diplomatic presence, especially in Iraq, where the Defense Department had conducted diplomatic missions. Clinton unveiled the Global Hunger and Food Security program, prevailed over Vice President Biden to send an additional 21,000 troops to Afghanistan, saved the signing of a Turkish-Armenian accord, and assisted the president with major decisions as to the U.S. position with regard to the revolution in Egypt and the decision to use military force in Libya.

You convinced me! Hillary is awesome!

“First ever student commencement speaker at Wellesley College. Distinguished graduate of Yale Law School. Former Director of the Arkansas Legal Aid Clinic. Former civil litigation attorney. Former Law Professor at the University of Arkansas School of Law. Former First Lady of Arkansas. Former First Lady of the United States, and the first FLOTUS in US History to hold a postgraduate degree. First ex-FLOTUS in US History to be elected to the United States Senate. Elected by the… State of New York to serve two terms in the United States Senate. Former US Secretary of State. GRAMMY Award Winner. Author. Self proclaimed Pantsuit Aficionado. Married to a man named Bill, who plays the saxophone.”

You don’t have to like Hillary Clinton or her ideas. I get it. She’s a Democrat, a progressive (in most eyes), and conservatives don’t like that. However, you cannot say she does not have any accomplishments. Here are just a few:


◾Even though her major initiative, the Clinton healthcare plan, failed (due to Republican obstruction), you cannot deny that it laid ground for what we have today, the Affordable Healthcare Act, something Clinton supports and would continue.
◾She played a leading role in the development of State Children’s Health Insurance Program, which provides the much-needed state support for children whose parents cannot afford nor provide them with adequate healthcare coverage.
◾She was also instrumental in the creation of the Adoption and Safe Families Act and the Foster Care Independence Act.
◾Successfully fought to increase research funding for prostate cancer and asthma at the National Institute of Health (NIH).
◾She spearheaded investigations into mental illness plaguing veterans of the Gulf War; we now have a term for it – Gulf War Syndrome.
◾At the Department of Justice, she helped create the office on Violence Against Women.
◾She was instrumental in securing over $21 billion in funding for the World Trade Center redevelopment.
◾Took a leading role in the investigation of health consequences of first responders and drafted the first bill to compensate and offer the health services our first responders deserve (Clinton’s successor in the Senate, Kirsten Gillibrand, passed the bill).
◾Was instrumental in working out a bi-partisan compromise to address civil liberty abuses for the renewal of the U.S. Patriot Act.
◾ Proposed a revival of the New Deal-era Home Owners’ Loan Corporation to help homeowners refinance their mortgages in the wake of the 2008 financial disaster.
◾Was a major proponent of sensible diplomacy which brought about a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, and brokered human rights with Burma.
◾Oversaw free trade agreements with our allies such as Panama, Colombia, and South Korea.
◾Was the most traveled Secretary of State to date.
◾The Clinton Foundation, founded by her and her husband, has improved the living conditions for nearly 400 million people in over 180 countries through its Initiative program.

These are not all of her accomplishments. Her activism on behalf of women a children across the world is renowned. Her activism for raising the minimum wage and combating climate change is stellar. You do not have to support what she does or stands for. But do not say she doesn’t have any accomplishments. The conservatives who say this are the ones who are pushing for Ted Cruz – who brought on a $24 billion shut down. That, to them, is an accomplishment?

Yes, Hillary Clinton has accomplishments. You don’t have to like them, but they do, in fact, exist.

No, since that isn't the discussion at hand. Besides, as was mentioned yesterday, we need to talk about the here and now. Forget the past.

So, I'm forgetting the past, as requested.

Care to review how the racism-cops are now going after a leader in the LGBT community, or you still want to discuss Breitbart?
