Gravitas

Does anybody think that Hillary Clinton has the necessary gravitas to represent this nation on a world stage? She’s providing all expenses paid trips to people willing to say nice things about her. Nobody asked me to take part in thehillaryiknow.com. Her campaign is putting up website after website claiming her rivals are being mean to her. She can’t seem to control her staff. Volunteers and paid staff members have been dismissed for underhanded actions. I refer to the circulation of false information about her opponents, I refer to the sneaky way her people tried to join discussion groups, using Clinton computers, without disclosing they were with the campaign. Her surrogates slime her opponents and then she says that they aren’t speaking for her. She exploits her cleavage, not for style, but for money. She relies on the manufactured outrage of victim feminists, when an unflattering picture appears on Drudge. She is internationally known for having a husband who does whatever and whomever he pleases. (I assume he’s pleased his girlfriends, in spite of the lack of testimonials.) What’s going to happen if Hillary becomes president, and Bill becomes bored?

I’m not entirely surprised that the Saudi woman, who was raped, was also pardoned. I’m also confident that our president had a little something to do with that. Could Hillary have pulled that off? Or would she simply have scolded another sovereign nation, congratulated herself for an attempt, no matter how weak, and proceeded to strut around confident in her own superiority, while simultaneously cowering behind whatever marquee person available? It seems to be her habit. Is it worth it?
