[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the sort of person who enjoys hearing the perspective of those who disagree with me.  I think it's a way of keeping myself grounded-- of not living in a bubble.  I want to feel as though I've left no stone unturned when making a decision.

Personally, I feel that Hillary is a political animal.  She eats, sleeps, and breathes Washinton politics.  She is calculated, mechanical, and everything she does is premeditated.  She has spent so long in the political spotlight that she probably can't remember what it is to be candid.  But, I think she's intelligent, driven, "a fighter" (to quote her opponent), and when [b]you look at her history of public service, she wants to serve the people.[/b]  She is well-versed in presidential politics, and I choose to view that as a good thing: there won't be any learning curve for her figure out some way, any way, to try to work WITH the other party.  In short, while I don't feel much connection to her, I feel her drawbacks (DC insider who rubs elbows with big-shots, using a personal server to evade scrutiny, being married to an unfaithful two-term pres...) won't impact me, the "little guy", in an adverse way.  On the other hand, an untested, former reality star who made his mark in real estate, casinos, and branding--with his own questionable personality quirks--kind of embarrasses me.  Oddly enough, I feel that had greater potential to impact my life.

What am I not seeing?[/quote]

What on earth drives you to this conclusion? She wants to serve only herself, OP. [/quote]

Different poster here.  If she were serving herself, she would just give high-priced speeches for the rest of her life.  Instead, she is going for a much more difficult job at much lower salary.[/quote]

No one would pay would pay for her high-priced speeches if she doesn't have the power to deliver. Duh.[/quote]

To deliver what?  Pro-wall st policies?  What?[/quote]
If you live in a bubble, I guess you wouldn't know.[/quote]
