THE BOTTOM LINE The right blend of knowledge, skill and experience.
Hillary
Clinton, who is aiming to shatter the nation’s highest glass ceiling,
has the right blend of knowledge, skill and experience to be an
outstanding candidate for president.
We have seen her in action
for decades — as an active first lady; as an effective eight-year
senator who delivered for New York, including billions in federal aid to
rebuild New York City after 9/11; and in four years as secretary of
state, when she played a critical role in levying crippling sanctions on
Iran and in the killing of Osama bin Laden.
That experience on
the world stage makes her the best choice to deal with its complicated
troubles, especially terrorism, a newly belligerent Russia and an
increasingly militaristic China.
