Thank you. That's all I wanted.

Now. Since we got her past out of the way and why she's untrustworthy for that, what about her current campaign proposals are a problem?

Keep in mind, I'm still upset with Obama for not going after banks and not curtailing government surveillance like he promised. I don't trust Clinton 100%, but I'm tired of old talking points. If people are going to criticize her, I want to see criticism with substance.

I mean, she hasn't changed any of these positions, or in the case of specific choices, she generally hasn't acknowledged that she was wrong (except for Iraq, which is the political thing to do).

I have no reason to think she won't continue extralegal murder of civilians, or that she'll pursue any meaningful economic reform. She's not a leader, she finds what's popular and then adopts that. I want a president who is smarter and more thoughtful than I am, and I don't believe that she fits that.
