Letter: Hillary Clinton wrong choice for president

Posted: 10:07 am, February 22, 2016 by Letter To The Editor

To the editor,

Hillary Clinton is a candidate of, by and for defeatism, delusion and deceit, in both domestic and foreign policy.

Clinton emphatically says that Medi-Care for all “will never, ever come to pass,” and that pursuing that goal would be dangerous – despite the fact that the vast majority of Democrats support a single-payer health-care system.

Clinton describes the 2011 attack on Libya as “smart power at its best” – despite the fact that it’s a catastrophe enabling terrorist havens.

Clinton, feigning to admit her vote for the Iraq invasion was a “mistake,” says it was a “mistake… because of the way that it was done and how the Bush administration handled it” – sociopathic displacement and diversion.

Clinton has ruled out the long-term possibility of any reconciliation with Iran, or communication with the regime beyond the nuclear weapon issue – a formula for perpetual armed standoff.

I’m for a president who’s ready to shut down corporate off-shore tax havens, raise the income cap on social security contributions, impose a tax on Wall Street speculation and avoid stupid wars, to rebuild our middle class by rehabilitating our infrastructure, making public education through college tuition-free, expanding Social Security, and extending Medi-Care to cover all Americans.
