Howard Dean: The Case for Hillary Clinton

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton remains the best hope for Americans who are counting on strong and experienced leadership to deal with the economic injustice, educational crises, and foreign instability, which have plagued our country in the early part of the 21st century.

Clinton’s three most compelling characteristics continue to be her vast experience in foreign and domestic policy; her tenacity and history of getting things done across the political aisle, particularly as a senator; and the ferocious enthusiasm of her followers, particularly among young women working for true political gender equity that is long overdue.

Clinton has been subjected to more criticism and vitriol in this campaign than any other candidate, much of it at taxpayers’ expense, as they have funded nine investigations by congressional Republicans, none of which have produced a shred of credibility for allegations of wrongdoing, anymore than the investigations into Whitewater, Vince Foster or any of the other GOP attacks have produced results before them.

The Republicans have had the Think Tanks Feeding every Move to the Media, they have been constantly showing Trump and all negative to Hillary. Trump is a smoke screen, while the rest of the GOP hopefuls traveling the country bashing Clinton because she has the best next chance for President. She has Dem's, Whites, Retired, Blacks including most minorities. The Danger of Republicans winning the presidency is they will hold all three, the house, senate and presidency it would be a complete disaster for are country as well as the world, the Bush power crazies proved the incompetence of power by the GOP.

He did the lead in on the email thing and then interviewed Howard. From Jonathan's comments and response questions it is clear that Jonathan still does not have a firm grip on the basics, iows - he is still confused.

Howard did a great job trying to explain but Jonathan just could not make the trip. I think it is just too hard for some people (most of the media tv and print) to understand the terms/basics.
