President Barack Obama Formally Backs Hillary Clinton

Since you are very worried about working in the "private sector" so much.
Hillary Clinton worked for the non-profit Children's Defense Fund, and was on the board of directors of TCBY, Walmart, and Lafarge. Does that count?

Also why is working in private industry a qualifier? Government does not operate like a for-profit business....

btw the childrens defense fund was just being on the board of directors just like the others. And no being on a board doesn't count. you don't do any of the work, you aren't the one accountable.
As to why its important... accountability like I said. having to actually perform to a level of expectation or be fired.
With Hillary though .. to me it wouldn't matter if she did have those things... her history of lying is so pervasive I couldn't get past that regardless of her experience.

.

no, working for a non-profit charity has never qualified as "work" in the history of modern civilization. And I think Kim Kardashian is also on one or two of those board of directors you mentioned. so, no.......no it does not count.
 
eight years of patting themselves on the back for voting the first black guy in, now ALREADY pre-patting themselves on the back for Hillary.

can't we just hire a competent LEADER who has held, you know, A REAL JOB in his life. you know, actually LEFT school and accomplished something in the private sector, not conning people to vote them into cushy government positions? wouldn't THAT be a breath of fresh air? come on, lets give a go. please. pretty please.

The same guy who insulted a man who risked his life and spent five years in a stinking hole in the ground while Trump got four draft deferments?

Why should I vote for such a scumbag.

based on that thinking you must also hate bill clinton. No?
 
I didn't vote for him either.

but you're voting for his wife who who's claim to fame is saving his presidency by running interference and attacking his accusers. life's full of ironies. sad ones.

Ahhh its not work if Hillary does it.. I think I'm beginning to see a pattern here

As to why its important... accountability like I said. having to actually perform to a level of expectation or be fired.
You cant get this experience in the non-profit world or public sector world? Really now? You can only get this experience in the private sector world?

With Hillary though .. to me it wouldn't matter if she did have those things... her history of lying is so pervasive I couldn't get past that regardless of her experience.
Yes. Because I'm sure you are so worried about the truth and hold your standard of truth up to every other politician.
 
President Barack Obama Formally Backs Hillary Clinton



This endorsement, which was expected, comes just an hour or so after Obama met with Bernie Sanders. Sanders, during his press conference after the meeting, vowed to keep campaigning, but thanked Obama and Biden for remaining neutral during the Democratic Primary and said that he looked forward to working with Hillary to ensure that Donald Trump is defeated in the fall.

This is the video of the endorsement from Obama.



Lol !!

Horrible news for the Hillary campaign. Remember ? Not only was Obama's signature legislation Persona Non Grata in the last Midterms, OBAMA was Persona Non Grata

He was such a liability to the Democrats winning back the House or keeping the Senate that Democrats pretended that he didn't exist

Patrick: Dems lost because of Obama - CNNPolitics.com

Dems had to run on identity politics and divisive insubstantial crap, same thing they're running on now. How that work out for them ?? Lol.....

If Obama really wanted Hillary to win he would have endorsed Trump

no that's not it. If Hillary had been a CxO of one of those companies then that would be different. being on a board doesn't require much. and yes I do hold politicians to a truth standard. there are a few completely honest ones.. very few. there are some mostly honest.. and most of them are somewhere in the middle... there are a good number that lie some.. there are a smaller amount that lie very frequently... and then there is the smaller amount that are pretty much constantly lying.. Hillary is in that group.
 
It's good to see Obama holds no grudges over the "need to see his birth certificate" racist carp the Hillary campaign stirred up back in 08.


With Hillary now not supporting some of the policies she and Obama worked on, and him saying how smart and qualified she is. Does this mean Obama no longer thinks his policies are right for the country?

ROFL, you're insane. Two years ago is years ago. Obama's job approval is now about 50%. The only folks who hate Obama are folks that aren't going to support Hillary anyways.

Just wanted to point out that Obama and Hillary are not the same person.

I had to replay that a couple of times to make sure Obama really said he's seen her judgement.
He did say it. He really did.
And he still endorsed her.
So much for HIS judgement.

Greetings, bubba. :2wave:

There was a very interesting article on Yahoo today entitled Hillary Clinton's Private Server Contained Special Access Program Intelligence. Bernie Sanders Must Continue To Campaign. Huffington Post.

I wonder if he saw that?

I wonder if he cares. She's his only shot at keeping himself relevant.

Mr. President is finally showing some class befitting the office of the president of the United States. Knowing in advance some idiot moron will attack me as a Hillary supporter, but speaking directly to the endorsement Mr. Obama is owed some creds.

By waiting till the in-fighting was over, and giving the nod to the presumptive candidate, Obama smooths any ruffled feathers inside the camp, unites the party and leave the Democrats in much finer shape than the Republicans.

There, we see a circus act of "I don't support Trump, but I will vote for him" along with high ranking Republicans giving endorsements and taking them back again. Typically, all the Republicans had to do was choose a ****ing good looking lamp post and they could have won it. Instead they decided to channel P. T. Barnum.

He'll be relevant all right - but in what direction? According to the article, Special Access is more critical than Top Secret, and the oddest thing is, Huff Post is a liberal, not a conservative "breaking news" organization! :shock:

Obama said Clinton is more qualified to be president then he is. finally he says something we can all agree on.
 
There is only one candidate who has joked about supporters maintaining their support despite the individual committing murder in broad daylight.

And Trump was talking about his own supporters. That's what I was referencing when I told you to stop being hyperbolic.

As to defending Hillary, I would note that she is one of the most experienced presidential candidates in US history given her time in the Congress, the Senate, the Executive, and the Domestic/International realm, that she has proven her ability to maintain her composure under severe stress when she stood in front of 11 hours of grilling by the House Select committee on Benghazi, and she has proven to be an adept political fighter both during this campaign and during her entire political tenure.
I think it's fair to say that if HRC attains the White House: Her & Bill will not be the easy pushover(s) for the GOP House, that Mr. Obama was during most of his Presidency!

You're conflating Obama's efficacy in performing among Indies and GOP in contested House & Senate seats in moderate districts during an off-cycle election, with that of his ability to draw turnout for the Democrats in a National election.

Two quite different things.

The President is enjoying positive approval numbers nationally, and we know little of that is amongst the GOP; so what is this saying of his popularity amongst the Dems?

The Dems have structural advantage in national elections both in terms of the electoral map and popular vote totals - they simply need to come out and vote, and Obama is still very popular among Dems which is why you will be seeing a lot of him once Bernie recedes (in whatever manner that may be for Bernie).
 
I think it's fair to say that if HRC attains the White House: Her & Bill will not be the easy pushover(s) for the GOP House, that Mr. Obama was during most of his Presidency!

Yet GOPosters continue to tell us just the opposite, that the GOP House was a pushover for Obama.

The GOP has lost its greatest weapons from the 2014 election--Reid is gone and Obama's popularity has ticked positive.

Sen. Warren made an effective case tonight to make this election about McConnell, as well as Trump .
