12. to suggest she is the most qualified
EVER yields the comment I made and I will gladly stand by it. she may be a sharp woman, but the are many in the past who would have been, or persons in the present, who are more qualified.
One DUmmy questions whether the Hildebeast ranks with the Founding Fathers:

16. I think that George Washington was eminently qualified to be President
John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison as well, as all of them played major roles in not only gaining independence, but also in setting up a system that most of us are proud to be heirs to.
At the DUmp, the Hildebeast ranks way above the father of our country:

57. Does Hillary own more slaves than George Washington did?
Refresh my memory if you'd be so kind.

59. Did Hillary lead, and win, a revolution for independence?
Refresh my memory if you'd be so kind.
..if she had been the First Lady of Arkansas in, say, 1838 instead of 1988? Would she have owned slaves?

76. That's a horrible qualification.
We agree on that. However, does that fact negate the fact that George Washington violated human rights?
At the DUmp, the Hildebeast's main qualification is that she doesn't own slaves.

25. John Adams was very qualified.
Ike was very qualified
Woodrow Wilson was very qualified
Richard Nixon was very qualified
George Herbert Walker Bush was very qualified
Qualified does/does not always equal good.
Where does the Hildebeast rank in that group?

27. Thomas Jefferson runs circles around Hillary in this and just about every dept.
And there are many others throughout history too. I think you might have overdosed just a bit on the Hillary kool-aid.
Speaking of our history, I would put most of the presidents of the past 50 years firmly in the realm of "mediocre", when compared to their predecessors. Giants like FDR and Jefferson and Lincoln are quite rare.
A Wookie vs. Hildebeast battle would be epic.

40. Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, both Roosevelts?
Hillary is not as qualified as any of those. Cordell Hull was a one-term Senator, he was Secretary of State for longer than Hillary; he never ran for the presidency, but if he had, he wouldn't have been "the most qualified candidate ever".
This is getting grotesque.

Mr. Gore decided to sit this one out.
