Obama's Impact

We're ready for change!!!

Was Clinton's Experience Faked?

Hillary Rodham Clinton has tooted her own horn about being the most experienced candidate on the Democratic ticket, but what does her experience really amount to. Below is an article that examines what her experience actually is.

As first lady, Hillary Rodham Clinton jawboned the president of Uzbekistan to leave his car and shake hands with people. She argued with the Czech prime minister about democracy. She cajoled Catholic and Protestant women to talk to one another in Northern Ireland. She traveled to 79 countries in total, little of it leisure; one meeting with mutilated Rwandan refugees so unsettled her that she threw up afterward.

But during those two terms in the White House, Clinton did not hold a security clearance. She did not attend National Security Council meetings. She was not given a copy of the president's daily intelligence briefing. She did not assert herself on the crises in Somalia, Haiti or Rwanda. And during one of President Bill Clinton's major tests on terrorism, whether to bomb Afghanistan and Sudan in 1998, Clinton was barely speaking to her husband, let alone advising him, as the Lewinsky scandal dragged on.

Clinton vs. Obama on Experience

Barack Obama has been catching a lot a flack on his "lack of experience"--especially from the Clintons. Bill was interviewed by Charlie Rose where he called Barack a "risk" due to his lack of experience. In response to the Clintons' criticism, Senator Obama quoted the former President himself from the 1992 presidential debate. I must say former President Clinton was correct in 1992, and his words still hold true in context of Senator Barack Obama today. Here's Bill in his own words today. Below is how ABC reported Obama's response.

http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2007/12/obama-grilled-o.html:

On Bill Clinton’s Charlie Rose interview: Obama was asked to respond to Bill Clinton’s interview last night on Charlie Rose in which he attacked Obama’s experience level, asking when was the last time we elected a president with only a year of service in the Senate.

Obama turned Bill Clinton’s own words around on him: “Well look, this is an argument they have been making during the duration of this campaign, I guess. Here is a quote: ‘The same old experience isn't relevant. You can have right kind of experience or the wrong kind of experience, and mine is rooted in the real lives of real people and it will bring real results if we have the courage to change’ -- and that was Bill Clinton in 1992. And I’ve been involved in government for over a decade, so the notion that there is a particular kind of experience that he has had or his wife has had that is more relevant I would dispute.”
