Elections 2016

By Terry McGahey

As we grow closer to the 2016 elections, I grow more concerned about how the outcome will effect the future of our children, grandchildren, and the supreme law of the land, our constitution. 

Lets face it, Hillary Clinton is the nominee and always has been on the Democrat party side of this upcoming election. She and many others on the left believe it's simply her turn. 

On the Republican side of this battle, at this point, we are looking at Donald Trump and Ben Carson as the top candidates.

I believe that Ben Carson is a good man and would do a good job as president, but I do see one problem lingering behind a cloak of viciousness awaiting him in the not so far off future. Mr. Carson is a very nice man, an intelligent man, and a soft spoken man. 

On the other hand the Clinton machine, just like the Clinton's themselves, is a very ruthless, underhanded, and dishonest organization that will stop at nothing to win the White House, even if it means stretching the truth or even telling out and out lies by twisting words. After all, twisting words is what attorneys are paid to do and the Clintons are some of the very best at doing so, depending on your definition of "what is, is."

I truly hope I am wrong, but I believe that the Clintons would tear Mr. Carson to pieces, then chew him up and spit him out. The reason I believe this to be true is because Mr. Carson is a nice man and a very soft spoken individual. 

If Mr. Carson is going to face the Clintons in the 2016 election, he is going to have to get down in the gutter with Hillary Clinton because that's who she is. And if he doesn't, or isn't willing to do that, Hillary Clinton will be the next president. 

God help us all if that takes place, this country couldn't stand under the strain of another progressive president in the White House. 

I am not saying that I actually prefer Donald Trump over Ben Carson, but I am saying that it is going to take someone like Trump who will get down in the gutter with Hillary and play just as dirty of politics as I guarantee you the Clintons will. Sorry to say it, but I believe that is what it will take to keep lying, cheating, dishonest Hillary Clinton out of the White House.

Just to give you a few examples of the kind of person Hillary truly is, I will list a few of at least ten scandals the Clintons have been involved with over the past many years:

1. Chinagate: This is where the Clinton-Gore campaign allegedly took bribes from the Chinese bank and government to help dwindling poll numbers.

2. Travelgate: Here Bill Clinton's cousin was allegedly promised the position as director of the White House travel office. Hillary then indirectly fired seven employees from that office and replaced them with associates from Arkansas.

3. Filegate: Craig Livingston, the director of the White House's office of personal security accessed FBI files on several hundred individuals. Hillary stated that it was nothing more than an honest Bureaucratic "SNAFU," even though many of those files were of Republicans.

4. The cattle futures miracle: Hillary's first commodities trade was in cattle futures where she ordered ten futures contracts which at the time sold for $12,000, but somehow Hillary picked them up with only $1,000 in her bank account. 

By the following morning this investment was worth $6,300, and after ten months totaled $100,000 with the help of James B. Blair. At the time, Mr. Blair was outside counsel to Tyson Foods Inc., Arkansas. This company was the largest employer at the time in that state. I don't know a lot about trading, but isnt this insider trading?

5. Lootergate: Bill and Hillary shipped off White House furniture to their home in Chappaqua, New York. The Clintons claimed the items were donated, but only some of those items were proven to be. After enough pressure was put on them, they finally returned the furniture to the White House.

6. Watergate: At the age of 27 years, Hillary Clinton was fired by the Judiciary Chief of Staff, Jerry Zeifman, who was a lifetime democrat and Hillary's direct supervisor. When Mr. Zeifman was asked why he fired her, he replied, "Because she was a liar and an unethical, dishonest lawyer."

I do not care if you are Democrat, Republican or Independent, we do not need someone with the lack of moral character in the White House such as the likes of Hillary Clinton. Even if only part of the things I listed above were true, that's still too many indiscretions, not counting the other five I haven't listed. 

Why party voting Democrats can not, or will not see this woman's character is beyond me.
