Related: About this forumHoward Dean: The Case for Hillary Clinton
By Howard Dean September 1 at 11:00 AM
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton remains the best hope for Americans who are counting on strong and experienced leadership to deal with the economic injustice, educational crises, and foreign instability, which have plagued our country in the early part of the 21st century.
Clintons three most compelling characteristics continue to be her vast experience in foreign and domestic policy; her tenacity and history of getting things done across the political aisle, particularly as a senator; and the ferocious enthusiasm of her followers, particularly among young women working for true political gender equity that is long overdue.
Clinton is not only the smartest and the toughest person in the race, she is also the person who has put forward specific policy proposals on issues ranging from profit sharing for workers, revitalizing rural America, criminal justice reform, universal automatic voter registration, to an economic plan that recognizes equal pay, paid family leave and childcare are essential to competitiveness and growth.

(11,417 posts)1. Hillary is the most experienced candidate of
all candidates running.
First Lady of Arkansas, First Lady of the USA, US Senator and Secretary of State.
She has an impressive resume. No other candidate can match it.
