It Didn’t Matter in 2008; Does It Matter in 2016?

Character! In 2008, when Barack Obama was elected, America turned a blind eye and deaf ear to the facts regarding his qualifications or lack thereof. Here’s a few things we knew, yet ignored, just to have our first minority elected to the presidency:   - Zero executive experience; zero foreign policy experience; very minimal legislative experience and it was extremely left wing.

  • His associations and alliances with home grown terrorists; support of the communist party USA and support of a far left “religious” church/pastor, Marxists and felons.

  • His rearing and mentoring by Marxists; living in a Muslim country, going to Muslim schools, and praising the Muslim beliefs and lifestyle. Pictures of Che Guevara hung on the walls of his campaign offices.

  • His disdain of the military and promise to end the war in Iraq rather than win it; his willingness to negotiate with those with whom there is no negotiating. His lack of serious concern for the Iranian nuclear threat.

  • His support of late term abortion, redistribution of wealth, increasing the size of government, his Alinsky and class warfare tactics including pitting whites against blacks, the rich against the poor, Christians against all other religions. He clearly played the race card.

  • His deliberate efforts to keep ALL his records, including birth certificate, sealed so the citizenry couldn’t know the real Obama all-the-while claiming to be transparent.

  • His anti-American stance and his pro-African stance. His world view trumped his American view. His refusal to wear the American flag lapel pin or honor Old Glory and the National Anthem in public until intimidated to do so.

  • Even then his propensity to lie was obvious. It has since become pathological.

All of this and more was well known to the citizenry in 2008, at least to those citizens who take their citizenship responsibility seriously, yet none of it mattered. Obama was void of character, integrity, honesty, responsibility, honor, American values and qualifications for the Oval Office. Had he applied for work at the FBI, CIA, DOD or even enlisted in the Armed Services, Obama couldn’t have passed a background check to get a security clearance. Didn’t matter. America was hell bent on electing our first minority president no matter the consequences. The threat to our republic, our constitution, our way of life, our core values, our economy, the make up of the Supreme Court, our military readiness and national security, all irrelevant. Obama had raised himself to Messiah level, he dazzled those easily dazzled with his glib tongue, and he was black. We chose a president because of the color of his skin, not the content of his character, and today we’re paying the price for this irresponsibility on the part of the American voter. It would take a three volume set to list the extent of that price with some of it yet to come.

So, will it matter in 2016? Has America learned a lesson with the Obama experience? Or will we turn a blind eye and deaf ear again and put one of the most corrupt human beings in America into the Oval Office simply because she is a woman?

It’s just my opinion but I know it is shared by millions of patriots. We are rapidly running out of time to put America back on track before the wheels fall off completely. Our republic is sitting on the edge of an abyss. The Constitution has become irrelevant. Our Nation of Laws has given way to a Nation of Men. History shows us that once we reach that point, tyranny follows and revolution follows that. I doubt there has ever been a more critical election in the history of mankind than the one facing us in November. If America falls, who’s left? All nations are likely to fall into dictatorship without the U.S. influence and example of freedom, liberty and democracy.

So, let’s review Mrs. Clinton’s record and qualifications. Remember, in the “modern day progressive movement,” which Clinton boasts of being part of, the essential components are hypocrisy and lies. On that count she is overqualified. On the lying scale of 1 to 10, Obama is an 8, Hillary is a 12. Benghazi and the email server are simply the most recent examples. And it was proven beyond doubt that she lied about Benghazi and her email server, multiple times. If we had real justice in America, she’d be indicted already. Thus far Obama has gotten off scot-free with all his violations of law and the Constitution, and Clinton, should she win the election, goes into office already above the law.

Most of the list below is common knowledge and serves as a memory jogger for thinking voters this November.

“He (she) who permits himself (herself) to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do a second time and a third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he (she) tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world’s believing him (her). This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time depraves all its good disposition.” —Thomas Jefferson, 1785

Her Senate record is lackluster. She had three bills passed, one of them renaming a Post Office. Her record as Secretary of State was disastrous no matter the praise given her by Barack Obama. It includes Libya, Benghazi as a separate incident, Syria, Egypt and the Muslim Brotherhood — all bad and part of the reason the middle east is on fire. Prior to all of that —

  • As a staff member of the House Judiciary Committee that investigated the Richard Nixon Watergate scandal, she was fired by her supervisor because “she was a liar.” “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the constitution, the Rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality." (Jerry Zeifman, Clinton’s committee supervisor.)

  • She did her college thesis on Saul Alinsky, communist radical, and considered him a mentor. She also later interned for Bob Truehall, head of the California Communist Party.

  • She’s known to have a very foul mouth with the F— word one of her favorites, so says the secret service and various aides the Clintons have had over the years.

  • Remember her role in covering up and intimidating Bill’s many lovers/victims (Monica, Jennifer, Katheleen, Juanita, Paula, Elizabeth, etc.)

  • Other well known scandals for which she was party to, if not the principal criminal — Whitewater, Travelgate, Filegate, the cattle futures windfall, Castle Grande real estate scam. Stealing the White House furniture upon their departure from the presidency. (Maybe that’s why she wants back into the White House; to get more furniture.) Chinagate, HillaryCare, foreign donations and the Clinton IRS enemies list.

  • Re: Whitewater: In 1996, Hillary was accused by the Senate Special Whitewater Committee of ordering the removal of potentially damaging files related to Whitewater from Vince Foster’s office on the night of his questionable death. She denied everything. Fast forward to 2016 and the current email scandal and the deletion of 30,000+ potentially damaging emails from her private server and denying everything.

  • Other points to remember/research should you have any doubts regarding her inadequacy to be president: Attorney General Janet Reno. Hillary picked her for Bill. Exorbitant speaking fees from big banks and globalist companies for "future favors.” Selling Uranium to Russia. The Clinton Foundation — a probable “organized crime” syndicate, yet to be determined. The Bilderberg Group (globalist) has endorsed Clinton. Hillary’s connection to the Muslim Brotherhood (Huma Abedine). Hillary’s “missing” law firm billing records — subpoenaed by federal investigators in 1994 — later mysteriously showed up in the White House in 1996. As of the latest count, there are 42 deceased personnel who had some relationship with the Clintons either as Bill’s lovers, associates, partners, staff members, etc.

  • Need more evidence? See here and especially here.

Here’s an important question: What if there was something on that server that’s threatening to Hillary Clinton or the Clinton Foundation that would insure prison time should it be made public, and what if foreign or domestic blackmailers now have it? What if she is elected and then blackmailed? What happens to our national security? The ramifications are endless.

If the American people again select a person for the presidency simply to mark off a point on a check list (First minority? Check. First Woman? Check.), ignoring those traits that matter, then what’s next? First Muslim? First transgender? First communist? First minority woman? First minority, transgender, Muslim communist? Wake up America. When do we get back to character, integrity, honesty, honor, respect for our republic and constitution and the qualifications to hold the office?

Hillary Clinton is the most corrupt, dishonest, lying, deceiving, dishonorable woman on the planet. Lying and deception are a way of life for Hillary Rodham Clinton and has been for over 40 years. She is motivated by power and money and will let nothing get in the way of that except prison and death. And should America not feel the same, welcome to serfdom. May your days be filled with torment, deprivation and horror, for it will soon arrive and be well deserved.
