Obama Turns The Tables On The GOP With Foreign Policy Endorsement Of Hillary Clinton

“The one thing I will say is she is going to be able to handle herself very well in any conversations that are based around foreign policy,” the President said. “And her track record with respect to domestic policies is one that cares about working families.”

“If she decides to run, if she makes an announcement, she’s going to have some strong messages to deliver.”

It’s not an accident that on the eve of her anticipated announcement, the President pointed out what a powerhouse Secretary Clinton is on foreign policy and how she has a long track record of advocating for working families. President Obama won’t endorse anyone from the White House, but it is clear that the former rivals have become powerful allies.

Republicans have foolishly pinned hopes on using foreign policy to hit Sec. Clinton, but of course not one of their candidates has the foreign policy experience that Clinton does. It is no accident that this is was the highlight of Obama’s comments on what Sec. Clinton is bringing to the table.

Secretary Clinton has worked long and hard to be here, on the eve of her announcement, with an impressive resume and vast experience.

Game on.

With her close ties to Goldman Sachs, I'm guessing not too far.

Now I gotta clean my monitor again. Do you think it will build up an immunity to windex?

This is a big fucking deal, as Joe Biden would probably be the first to admit.
