Letter: Elect Clinton for historical significance
New York Metro ^ | May 26, 2014 | Reba Shimansky

Posted on 05/27/2014 1:46:14 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Nothing angers me more than when people in the media compare that mediocre Jeb Bush to the great Hillary Clinton. First of all, the Bushes are a political dynasty; the Clintons are not. The Clintons are a team.

Quibbling. They aren't a multi-generation dynasty (yet), but Hillary certainly has had a leg up because of who her husband is, and if she gets elected President, she and Bill will be as much of dynasty as the Bushes or Adamses were, just as we'd call the Kennedys a dynasty if two brothers had been elected president and the rest of the family had stayed out of politics.

Single-generation political dynasties (or whatever you want to call them) tend to go under the radar: the Burtons, the Levins, the Salazars, the Castros, the Sanchezes.

“Electing a monkey would be historic too.”

Been there, done that!

I thought Bill and Monica were a Team.

After all, like Siamese Twins they were joined at Bill’s Penis. Being the ultimate Multi-tasker, Bill’s nose was to the Grindstone taking calls from Congress while Monica’s Nose was, well...

Bonnie and Clyde were a Team.

I really don’t know how you debate people who so clearly reject reality.

Personally, I don't. After years of having debates as you described, my mind did not change one bit and their's rarely did. So I just quit.

Liberals will learn the truth in time.

We had enough of the ‘historical’ presidency with Obama, and we see how well that has worked out. I don’t care if she does have lady parts, I won’t vote for Hillary Clinton, because I use my lady SMARTS, and know that her liberal ideas, like Obama’s are the WORST thing for this country!

Check out today's printed reply in the same publication:

Letter: Snoopy for president

Letter writer Reba Shimansky makes powerful and cogent arguments for electing, to the highest office in the land, Snoopy. He has appeared in newspapers, magazines, books and television, he is internationally recognized and he has widespread appeal. He even has military experience! To paraphrase Ms. Shimansky’s circular reasoning: “If Snoopy were elected president, it would be a milestone in U.S. election history because electing the first canine president and breaking through that doggie-door would be historic.” Snoopy’s leadership abilities and executive experience far exceed Hillary [Clinton’s]. It’s scary that votes based on notoriety and fame have the same weight as those based on objective examinations of ability and experience. http://www.metro.us/newyork/news/voices/2014/05/27/letter-snoopy-president/
