I’m A Veteran. Here’s Why I’m Voting For Hillary Clinton

Hillary Clinton, former first lady, senator, and secretary of state, is now looking to add “first female President of the United States” to her already impressive list of titles. After already leading a precedent-setting primary campaign by being the first woman presidential nominee, she is moving into the general, where she will be battling business mogul Donald Trump for that title. But for the readers of Task & Purpose, most of whom are veterans and service members, the title that matters most is that of next commander in chief of the armed forces.
That’s why Task & Purpose decided to reach out to you to find out why you will be vote blue — for Hillary Clinton — come November, and this is what you said.

To me a person who destroyed 30,000 emails that the laws required her to keep, who used a blackberry in Asia after being told EXPLICITLY that BB’s were not secure enough, a person who gave her attorneys access to her State department emails when they had no clearance to view them, and on and on and on, -- SHOULD have to decency to say, “I am really sorry I made all these mistakes. I am withdrawing from the presidential race.”
And yet THIS IS NOT EVEN BEING DISCUSSED.

Trump at least has made a shitpot full of money. Hil has only held onto Bill's coattails and gritted her teeth.
She's a joke. It's like she is some '1984' candidate that you are just supposed to accept.
Or like what Lincoln said to Edward Everett -- "You have always been famous. You are famous for being famous."

I have to agree with you Walt. I'd like to know who's she got something on to continue to get away with everything. Even Loretta Lynch wouldn't say anything negative. She's probably hoping HRC is going to let her keep her position if she gets elected.

Capt Walter Miller - So Trump having money that daddy left him makes him more suitable? HRC riding Bills coattails. I won't argue that one, but money is the determining factor, then Trump should skip being President. Title is too "low" for someone so rich. He should be "King", "Emir", "His Excellency" (some say Obama already has that one).
Sir can you pull up a formal job requirement for President? If you can, please show where integrity was one of the requirements for office? How about transparency? Personal accountability? How about being native born? That IS in there, but Cruz swore he didn't know he had dual UNTIL he decides to run for POTUS? 44 years of not knowing? I guess it took me 44 years to know I am broke, but I've only been on earth 43. My damn parents!!! I'm not defending HRC and I'd be the first to admit I won't vote for her no matter what. But in this case Trump is no better. Want a racist? Check. Knows what it's like to use the law to suit him and win? Well BOTH of them have that, but Trump has used it far more to get much more in the end. Has no clue? Yeah....both on that, but HRC is one step ahead from her experience.
I say why don't we have a donkey decide who wins between the two asses. Both walk up behind the donkey and whoever gets off the ground with their ribs and teeth intact wins. The Donkey doesn't care who wins. Only cares that you don't touch it again. I guess PETA would be on my case over a Donkey deciding who makes it into the White House, and the ACLU would swear it's not in the Constitution.

It boggles the mind that even some on the left refuse to think outside the box. You don't like clinton great, you don't like trump also great. But instead of thinking outside the box, you and some on the right still can't see past the failed two party system.
Cheers to Walt for actually taking a stand against the clinton! I may not like his ideological bent, but I can respect him for intellectual honesty when it comes to that witch.

One thing we can be pretty sure of if Clinton takes the helm is that our foreign policy will be hyper-kinetic and hyper incompetent.

As a military person, voting for Hillary makes about as much sense as leaning into a left hook. Oh, excuse me, I just looked at who posted this. You're not serving anymore, are you? You won't have to face the consequences of that decision. Sorry. Now I understand.

Yeah, anyone on active duty should be scared to death that she will be elected.

I don't get what you're saying CPT Jack. I also posted a "I'm a veteran, here's why I'll vote for Trump." Are you saying I'm incompetent to post this? You're not still serving either. I don't understand. You've never been rude to me before.

SGT (Join to see) - I didn't really look at the provenance of the posting until I began writing. When I looked up and saw it was you, I stopped. Now you should be old enough (well you are) to remember how the military was treated while the Clintons occupied the White House. The utter disrespect for the uniform. Hillary demanded that the military not wear their uniforms around her. (Me, I would have stripped naked for her benefit) The time she demanded that a Marine leave his post to fetch her a cup of coffee and then threw a fit because he politely declined. That's what I was thinking of when I began responding to your challenge. Then I saw that you were a veteran and realized that you (and I) wouldn't have to face such treatment. Why would you wish that on anyone serving today? Can you imagine how much worse she'll be as President than she was as First Lady? And of course, I know that We the People will all suffer consequences of her election. But, that wasn't on my mind when I began responding as though talking to someone on active duty. Forgive me if that seemed impolite.

Na! It's ok CPT Jack. I have the utmost highest respect for you. I was a little confused, as usual.
