Not qualified?

Who are they talking too?

First Lady (one of the most engaged and political ever), United States Senator, Secretary of State. What more qualifications does she need?

And this is also a person who has had more shit thrown at her regarding her political and personal life than any normal person could ever endure. And she is still here.

And she has the intestinal fortitude to be proudly pro-woman, pro-child and pro-choice and make no apologies about it.

I'm with her 100%. We can do this.

She will easily defeat Trump or any other right-wing bigot the Republicans trot out there.

We have had 8 years of progress. This is no time to turn back and flush it down the toilet. Let's build on it, improve on it and go with it!

HRC 2016!

Hillary is beyond qualified and we will all benefit from her qualifications and experience.

Thank you, Kath.. I was looking for this graphic that was posted here in our Group that shows all the ways Hillary is more Progressive than sanders but I can't find it!

3. I saw a TPM article

where Caterpillar-Head (Trump) basically jumped on this idea. It's funny hearing him of all people call HC unqualified to serve, considering that he has zero political experience.

He may keep trying to nibble at the edges as he leaves but Hillary has survived much MUCH worse.

The chart seems ripe for a superPac ad ~

Think they ever poke around here, taking the temperature and looking for sound bites? There's great copy coming out of some of these posts !

8. Clinton is qualified

Of course Clinton is qualified.

I regard that rhetoric as campaign boilerplate.

I will have problem voting for either one.

....and last I saw she didn't drive the state of Arkansas to the brink of bankruptcy like the "other" candidate's spouse did to Burlington College.
