HI Cactus Flower,

Her first big attempt, was healthcare.
That took courage, even though she wasn't successful.

I still applaud her courage on calling China out for their mistreatment of women!

I credit her with campaigning in my home state & winning the senate seat.

As Secy of State, Hillary worked hard to broker a deal to keep a war from breaking out in the Gaza. Unfortunately it didn't last long enough.

She also visited Myanmar. It had been 50 years since the last official visit.

She worked to have the Chinese dissident released.

She worked to have sanctions tightened on Iran. We are still hopeful that a better relationship will come.

Hillary works hard, no matter what she is doing. She does her homework.
I don't blame her for being careful before committing to an issue, out loud.

I like Elizabeth also & have great respect for Jerry Brown.
Elizabeth is new to this venue. She hasn't gone through the gauntlet like Hillary has.
Yet, she is becoming more careful. She was recently asked about Hillary's relationship with Wall Street & she wouldn't answer.

Neither Elizabeth or Jerry would be able to draw enough of those 20% undecided/Independents to win.
Unless the republicans put Ted Cruz up...

and that's where I see Hillary's strength, with those 20%.

hi clo,

by all means fill in the blanks.

i do understand that you think she is brave, bright etc. to an extent, a president also has to respond to what is in front of her rather than make plans.

but she is such a creature of her ambitions and she seems to think her ambitions require her to avoid taking a stance on anything risky - that for me she comes up blank.

but you've supported her for years, so i am sure you know more than me.

i happen to like warren for precisely the opposite reason. she takes a position. she exposes herself to criticism. and so one gets a sense of authenticity out of her.

i also like jerry brown for the same reason.
