I'm a liberal independent, and would want to see a democrat as our next President.
I keep hearing Mrs. Clinton being described as intelligent, detail oriented, dedicated with decades of experience. Yet whether in the public or private sector, where are the results of her accomplishments?
Can we review some examples?
She decided to make some money in the real estate business. Nothing wrong with that. So she started Whitewater. This was her own idea. One that she created and controlled. Bill had little interest. This was a time when many people were getting rich in real estate. Hillary, in her own words "Lost money".
Mrs. Clinton has been committed to improving education for years.
When Bill was Governor she was given the task of reforming Arkansas education. She was hands-on. Implementing a plan completely of her own design. Allowing no one to interfere. As a result Arkansas state rating moved from 50 to 49. Mediocre results considering her promises and the multi-millions of tax dollars spent.
When Bill was President, she was give the task of providing a health care system for America.
All the other industrialized nations have them. Americans polled said overwelmingly they were ready.
Hillary went to work.
Not with medical people.
That would be a conflict of interest.
Everyone on her healthcare panel was a lawyer.
So working hands-on in secret she developed a healthcare plan.
Bob Dole, minority leader of the senate figured there was nothing the Republicans could do to stop it.
The Democrats had majorities in both houses, and her husband was President.
Then the details of her plan were revealed.
Unlike other countries healthcare plans that make things easier, Hillarys' plan was incredibly complex, even convoluted.
No layers of buracracy were eliminated.
Everyone taking their cut from the current system, would be included in her plan.
It had odd rules that seeming made no sense. For instance, if you wanted to change doctors, you had to wait 18 months.
If you decided to go off plan and pay the doctor out of pocket. Both you and the doctor could be fined and jailed.
The more details the public found out about the plan, the less they wanted it.
Ultimately it failed to pass into law.
At the time Hillary blamed a "Conservative Conspiracy".
But IF there were people lying about her plan, why didn't she have a press conference and explain?
Give us the real details. She never did.
Now about healtcare, she says at the debates, the insurance cos., drug cos., hospitals, and HMOs were all against her.
Sorry, you had them all included in your plan. Can't be them Hillary.
She also said people got scared.
OK, I buy that one.
But don't you think if you are intending to be President you should be able to communicate with the American people?
Explain your plans, dispel lies and ally fears?
She had 6 years to try another plan. Did she? Of course not, that would be admitting her first one was flawed. So don't expect healthcare help from Mrs Clinton.
My problem with Hillary Clinton is that she seems to be mostly PR.
I do not dispute that she has some good ideas.
But her abilty to execute leaves much to be desired.
When she is faced with error or failure her first course of action is always to blame someone else.
It seems you are either with her or against her. She will never admit she is wrong.
For all her bravado, these are the personality traits of the insecure.
Can you image these traits in a leader?
If you think voting for her will end the Iraq war, think again.
She was one of the most vocal proponents for the war.
A calculation to avoid her being called a weak on defense liberal.
Unlike the other candidates she has not admitted this as a mistake or apologized.
During the debates she has never said she'll end the war. Rather she wants to get the Iraqis to a point where they have a stable government
Does this sound much different from George Bush?
She voted for the war, she will not admit she wrong, or look weak.
Your loved ones will stay there in a civil war in which we have no business being.
So I want a democrat with good ideas who will actually get things done.
Not talk at me, but talk with me.
And if they make a mistake, fix it, don't blame everybody else.
I guess I live in never never land?

Because she was married to Bill Clinton and her name is Hillary Clinton. They think she is using name recognition to get in . Those who hate her do not mention Human Racism towards Planetary Life as something which all people could aknowledge has to do with Global Warming. United Nations, Hillary,and Government or whoever gets in could take care of this.

Most of the hate comes from the Republican machine, who thinks up new talking points every day to talk smack about her. My favorite one is the "socialist" label because she's for Universal Health Care and wants to force the oil companies to actually put their money where their mouths are and start investing in alternative energy sources. I have to question their intelligence when they claim she's a commie, she's socialist, she's going to turn us into a socialist state, blah blah blah blah blah. Since when did the Presidency attain such power. I guess they think the Congress will just stand by while she takes apart the Constitution for her "socialist" agenda. It's ridiculous. They completely ignore the socialist programs that already exist within our society (Social Security, welfare, medicaid, etc.) without us turning into a socialist state.
All the rest is just rehashing of the old "scandals" that were actually created by the Repubs and never proven, though to listen to them you'd think they were. To me, it's sort of amusing because they aren't convincing anyone but themselves. We've heard and seen this act before and it's stale and old. She has plenty of support, even moving ahead of Giuliani in general election polls. Just because those who hate her yell louder than everyone else doesn't give them more than the one vote they get apiece.
EDIT: A great example? "Karma", who keep claiming she's under indictment when she is not. What is WRONG with some of these people lol.

I honestly don't know why.
Hillary is America's only hope. She's the only one that knows the job well enough to prepare herself for whatever is thrown at her in 2008 when she's elected.

She bought a house in New York in a calculated effort to be elected to senate. She is not from New York, but knew that was a better chance to win an election there. She voted for the war, because that was the right political move at the time, now she changes her story. What has she done that is even remotely believable. She is a politician through and through, she is in it for her own gains and not even almost good at representing the people who elected her. She is a poor choice for president, and a poor example of the human spirit.

It is because like many canidates she promises things that will never come to be. It is a common scheme now being noticed today because of the hatred of george w bush. People are being more picky about who we are going to put in the white house. Personal I think she wants to exact the utlimate revenge and cheat on her husband as the first female president and lie about it to. She has my vote lol

A while back, before all the presidency crap, she put forth big bucks, I mean, really big bucks, against violent videogames, opposing them. At the time the details of everything just made it seem completely useless, what she was doing, when she could've been studying further into the case and spending money perhaps on what really causes mainstream violence. I like videogames, especially violent ones, so it's not that I don't like her because she hates Grand Theft Auto; I just thought that if she spent so much time and money on something like that, I figured she'd be able to blow millions of dollars of her budget on even more banal things in the future.
I heard she was a mega ***** as well. She doesn't look safe either. Or honest.

One of my easiest personal reasons to explain I haven't heard anyone else mention is just that it'd be really annoying if she got elected, and then say after her, Jeb Bush got elected. Could you imagine going over the last several Presidents in US history and reading: "Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton, Bush..."
We are not some kind of weird monarchy. The family thing has got to stop.
I have more policy-related reasons as well, but those have been beaten into the ground.

People hate her because she stuck around with Bill after he cheated on her so many times just so she could get into the Senate and now wants to get into the White House. She also did that garbage where she changed her voice in the south so people could like her better there. She was raised in the north suburbs of Chicago (Park Ridge )!!!
