I know that people's memories are failing, but I have to remind them that under Clinton we had balanced budgets (with a surplus each year), we were paying down the debt and were due to pay it off entirely by 2013 - the chances of that happening now are nil.

The first thing GW did when arriving in office was to do away with balanced budgets and fiscal control. He has never seen a spending bill that he didn't like - remember he only issued his first veto a year ago and it was not on a spending bill. One thing Hillary has pledged to do is return to balanced budgets, paying down the national debt and fiscal control. Gotta love that one all by itself.

When B. Clinton was president, we (public) were not aware of the global threats to our national security. Had 9/11 not occurred, we may not have increased military spending as much during GWB's tenure.

The question is how will Hillary accomplish her goals?

Although, I will acknowledge that Hillary is a smart woman, I just don't like her, but I am willing to be her intern if she is elected.
