Hillary Clinton and The War


There has been much speculation on the part of Mrs. Hillary Clinton and the chances of her presidency. The reason why there has been so much speculation is because of the fact that it seems like she will do whatever it takes to get votes or get people to support her. Five years ago Mrs. Hillary Clinton was asked should the United States of America enter a war with Iraq. Five Years ago many felt resentment and the majority vote was to go to war. She got her wish but unlike Mr. John McCain who supported the war then and supports it today or like Mr. Barack Obama who opposed the war back then and opposes it today she sort of seems to have "flip-flopped". Some may see this as a sign of maturity and a person who is able to admit that she was wrong. I may agree with this point but it seems that whenever she is asked about it she never acknowledges the fact that she is one of the reasons that our country is in the situation that it is in right now.


Mrs Clinton has a similar plan to Mr. Barack's. Her plan for the war is to end it as soon as possible, well so she says. On her website she states that she has been urging the President to end the war for a whille now and that she instead of trying to build bases will try to reconstruct the country. Something that could be considered noble or could be considered as another act of a President trying to fix things that should be simply left alone.


Once again this is going to be a very interesting race to presidency. Would you vote for Mrs. Clinton? Why or Why not.
