A few highlights from the full endorsement:
There is no question that she is personally ambitious, though she is one of the few candidates who is ever blamed for it.
The question is, what is her ambition? To make money? Impossible. She’s doing fine. To get power? She’s had it. To get ALL the power, because she is power mad? That’s a creepy conspiracy theory that doesn’t ring true to me.
I think her ambition is, and has long been, to be the President of the United States, like everyone else in the race, and also to make policy.
No one can succeed 100% of the time in our system. But I think she can foster policies that will capitalize on the initial gains made by President Obama, whom I supported and still do, and surely, if slowly, move our nation closer to the ideals that I embrace.
Will it be fast? No. But there is a lot to do to shift the the nation’s policies back after the slow, economically rightward/socially intolerant swing that began with Ronald Reagan and peaked with the reelection of George W. Bush in 2004.
I don’t wish to discuss this online, but if you see me on the street, I’d be happy to talk to you about it.
It’s a humorous endorsement that was fun to read, and had some remarkably good points.
