With his predecessor. He is working hard, making it likely we avoid what was a likely war with Iran and striving to end the nightmare that is now the plight of Syrians. He also worked hard to get the US/China climate pact followed by the the Paris Climate Pact.

These are accomplishments that come from his entire career ' s focus. I do not think he personally would be happy to see his successes used against HRC.

I can compare anyone and anything I choose. I don't need to check with you about appreciating the fact we have a peacemaker in the state department as opposed to the one before who is and was a war monger. Enjoy my dust bin.

who isn't beating the drums of war and throwing insults at randomly foreign countries and bragging about how 'great' we are.

But yeah, go Kerry!
