Clinton's contradictions cause confusion

by Jason Hartline, staff writer

It is a great social advancement in the United States for a woman to run for president and for the people to elect her if they so choose.

However, that is not a reason to throw out our standards.  There may have been some presidents in the past who made some mistakes, but each was honorable. That seems to be a prerequisite for a presidential candidate.

To elect Hillary Clinton as president goes against everything the United States stands for. We have a strict policy here in the United States of America. That policy says up with success and down with predestined failure. We can infer that such a candidate as Clinton would only go against that policy by bringing out the latter.

Because of that, it is in my opinion that if Clinton wins the presidential candidacy, the best place to reside for the next four years will be in Europe. It is just so hard to decide what her stand is on anything. She tends to contradict herself quite often. Clinton says that what truly motivates her is the plight of the millions of Americans who struggle to pay the bills and who lack healthcare coverage. Never mind that almost all of her political stances would raise taxes an obscene amount. Personally, I cannot see how raised taxes would help the struggling American.

It does not stop with contradiction. Clinton does not actually say anything when asked a question. It is almost as though she talks just to waste time and lower the intellectual capacity of anyone in earshot. When she was asked about driver's licenses for illegal immigrants, she had five different stances within 10 minutes on the subject. 

Now that kind of decisive thinking is exactly what this country needs during a time of war and possible recession. If in Europe, this kind of nonsense would not have to be dealt with.

The terrible thing about the Clinton campaign is that she is very manipulative. Pulling the “I’m a woman” card has not been used this much since the push for women’s suffrage. The gender of the candidate does not matter. The thing that matters most is his or her stand, and views, on political issues that would be in the best interest of the nation. By Clinton saying that other male candidates are bullying her because she is a woman says to the public, “Give me your sympathy. I need your vote because I am being oppressed.” That is followed up by some fake tears and a terrible false southern accent, along with a tragically-sad face only a bad actress can possess.

Put all this together, and you have a country waiting to implode. 

For these reasons, Clinton will not only make a terrible president, but she will also be the cause of mass immigration to Europe, the only safe zone.
