Rear view mirror question: Sec.of State....... Hilary or Obama?

[Jim Warren]

Another way of looking at the present occurred to me. I was a Clinton supporter in 08 but got with the Obama campaign when H. bowed out.

Had things been reversed in the election outcome, in your opinion knowing what you know, who would make the better head of the State Dept, H or O?

1. Biden - he's got the Foreign Relations chops and knows all the players. nt

[Tx4obama]

2. Good answer! n/t

[A-Schwarzenegger]

3. Bertolt Brecht.

4. I think you could swap the two and nothing would change but style.

There's a reason the corporate media unanimously pronounced those two the only "viable Democratic candidates" before a single primary vote had been held.

[Jim Warren]

6. And that reason

you think that I would be interested in hearing, mmmmm?

7. I don't follow you.

5. A choice between two 3rd Way Neo-libs is no choice at all.

8. I think Hillary is a great Sec of State and would have been a great president. I am not sure

Obama would have been a great Secretary of State however.

[Jim Warren]

9. Yep

I agree, Hill has done a good job at State, so it follows IMO who would have been the better potus.

12. I hope you forgot the sarcasm flag

She insured Israel got it's free pass, and helped grease the wheels for libya. It's one thing to wish Hill won, but do NOt try to sell her as any less right wing than Obama.

10. This thread has absolutely no point.

11. You the new thread judge?

Thanks for the bump!
