Hillary Clinton Officially Running for President

Hillary Clinton, via her website, has announced she is officially running as the Democrat candidate for President. Nevermind that she is a women and the country is unlikely do elect a female candidate before a black male. I am basically a Democrat now but frankly I see nothing about her record that proves she deserves to be candidate nor nothing about her policy approach that is new and fresh. She has a history of just going with whatever flow gets her the most attention more worried about what is best for her rather then what is best for the country. She is basically identically to Bush only more dangerous because she has a brain to back it up.

People forget that while the American public was supporting Iraq, she happily did so and once the tide turned, so did she. Most of her "beliefs" are based on public opinion of the moment that what she really thinks is best. That is not someone I want in charge. Sadly the election of Bush has proven that past history or really any qualifications is no longer a requirement to be President. All it takes now is a "aw shucks" approach and a desire to crush an opponent by any means necessary (McCain in 2000).
