    If Trump won't be a real electoral surprise, it's clear that any Republican ticket would have a tremendous difficulty in beating Hillary Clinton. So I'm thinking to how Mrs Clinton will lead the United States of America in the next 4 years ... having to give her a mark, making a kind of political forecast ... which would be today your vote for Hillary Clinton as President of the United States? [From A to E]

    Personally, this opinion of mine is known also on PoliticalForum, I consider Mrs Clinton a very smart and good politician [malicious and Machiavellian in the right measure, as a good politician should be]. She's got experience in the administration and in particular with foreign affairs [this will help her in this international mess].

    So as for qualities and skills, I tend to give her a certain credit. Giving her a B, she could be a good President.
    [To share or to oppose her eventual policies is a different matter, I'm focusing my attention on her capabilities as President].

    She'll get the job done, that's about all I can say for her. She's got no "signature" agenda to push through, which will make her quite mediocre (hence, my vote).

    The first opinions are all different. This indicates that she is not giving a clear sensation about how she will run the country from the White House. Her communication strategy could miss something ... but of course the sample of the expressed opinion is absolutely not relevant, statistically speaking.

    I give her a "D". She will keep up what the establishment Democrats want, which is only a hair better than Republicans.

    Nothing any of the candidates spew should be taken as any indication of what they will actually do.

    I'm giving her a "A" as she is good at getting things done, plus.. she has old Bill as back-up, and we all know how good he was at being President... Low unemployment, an all the great things that could happen in those years.

    She has one major drawback as far as I am concerned - her unequivocal support for Netanyahu and the Likud/neocon rodents. However, I'm not sure ANY of the other candidates are any less supportive. This will continue to be a security issue for the U.S. ad nauseum.

    If you think the USA has done a good job of diplomacy and international relations over the last three years then you would think she is going to be good. If not then bad. She has promised to continue where she and Obama has left off. Frankly I do not think we have done so good internationally and the country is less safe.

    "E"(though shouldn't it be an "F"?) for disaster.

    Cankle will never be President. She has way too much history to win a general. However, if we are talking about a fantasy where she does happen to get elected, that history will plague everything she touches and would make her one of the more ineffective Presidents in modern times.

    Can anyone name three accomplishments of Hillary's during her public life that have achieved a positive, important benefit for our country? Can you even name one?

    Do you think the USA has done a good job with its international relations over the last three years? If so in what way?

    With a typical Italian humor I could ask you if you are not overestimating her ...

    And this is pure adulation ... don't forget she's Machiavellian. To be evil for her could even be reason of satisfaction ...

    I'm not overestimating the size of her Cankles. It's probably not even possible to do that :roflol:

    She doesn't really have any specific unique qualities other than her being a women, which she pounds out at everyone. That's the only thing that really sets her apart from everyone else. Bernie has his unique Scandinavian policies, and then theres that third guy, wonder why he's not leading the polls (uniqueness, I think not). So yeah, while she may do the job, she's not really an exceptional individual, so I dont think she'll be that great. She will do better than Trump or Carson or Cruz or Huckabee or yea every republican really, I havent seen a decent republican candidate since like a million years ago. Mccain, Romney, and now Trump, like come on right wing, you can do better than that.

    I see Hilary carrying on many of the same policies as Obama and as foreign affairs they have both been an utter failure. Libya being one of the biggest. Taking out the government than just walking away and allowing it to fall into the hands of terrorist. Their actions in arming the resistance in Syria was another big blunder. They never gave them the weapons they needed to over throw the government and in not doing so, most of them joined ISIS.

    Hilary is tied to big money. She has to many ties to too many rich to not do much of their bidding.

    Hilary is just not trust worthy. She has been caught in to many lies. I don't see much changing from Obama.

    That from a certain perspective you're right, but from her perspective [a pure politician] that "evil" can be interpreted and become a positive asset in a political career, the career of a smart and malicious professional of politics.

    While I do value ruthlessness, I think it is only a tool it cannot be the only thing a leader is good at. She is less Machevallian and more Caligula.

    Interesting comparison ... now we have to discover that she owns a horse called "Incitatus" ...

    Does Mrs Clinton own a horse?

    the difficulty with having Queen Hillary in office is that most of the women in the nation will become feminist, likewise all the men will either turn gay or be sentenced to jail as bullies. women won't even have to obey the law anymore.
