Our (un)official warning

When Hillary Clinton teared up the day before the New Hampshire democratic presidential primary, it should have been a clear sign not to vote her into office. If we do, then we deserve exactly what we get: a self-serving zealot and demagogue with a feminist chip on her shoulder and an insatiable appetite for power.
By electing Hillary president, we would be giving her exactly what she wants most: more power. Consider ourselves officially warned. Truth be told, though, the signs of Hillary's coming have been all around us for the past 15 years; since she began those closed-door hearings on universal health care as First Lady in 1993.
In New Hampshire, Hillary claimed she was crying out of concern for the country. But her words have been betrayed by her actions over the years.
The truth behind the cry is frustration over her presidential campaign, which, prior to Iowa, she thought was all but in the bag. Hillary has thought of herself as a candidate of destiny, the first female president of the United States. She is supposed to break the “highest of all glass ceilings” in the name of women everywhere. She isn’t supposed to lose the democratic nomination for president. If she does, then her dream of occupying the highest seat of power in the entire world will be over.
But with the results of Iowa, Hillary’s balloon burst and she settled back down to earth. Reality has forced her to accept that she would have to work and struggle to earn the democratic presidential nomination; it was not a given. There would be no coronation ceremony, no anointment. She was no longer a candidate of destiny, but one of fate just like the rest of the field.
Hillary was upset by the notion that people may not vote for her and that she may not be elected president of the United States. After all, the acquisition of and ascension to power has been the driving force behind Hillary Clinton.
She wants power the way an athlete wants to win or a gambler wants money—in the worst way.
Think about it: Why else would Hillary “stand by her man,” in spite of his multiple publicized extramarital affairs? An ordinary person would not put up with that kind of treachery. But Hillary did because she knew she could not get elected by herself without Bill Clinton’s namesake and celebrity. She was elected to the U.S. Senate because New York voters (1) recognized her as First Lady to President Bill Clinton, and (2) associated her with Bill’s tenure in office. She was not elected on her own merits.
Furthermore, why would Hillary establish residence in New York instead of, say, back in Arkansas? Three reasons: first, she knew she would probably not get elected in a traditionally conservative state; second, she knew that New York was very supportive of candidates with left-leaning views; and third, Arkansas does not carry the same weight in Beltway politics as New York does.
Make no mistake: Hillary’s move to New York was calculated. Neither was she in love with the state, nor particularly interested in representing its people. She wanted the shortest and easiest route to the national political scene. Lo and behold, she got it.
To this day, I marvel at the gullibility of New York voters, who actually believed Hillary wanted to represent them and really cared about their state. Anyone with half a lick of common sense could see that New York was a means to an end for Hillary. She wasn’t interested in what she could do for New York, only what New York could do for her.
What New York has done is position Hillary for the democratic presidential nomination; this after only one full-term in office. If Hillary really cared about New York, then why is she ditching her senate seat so soon? The reason is because Hillary wants to preside over all the states rather than be a representative of just one. Hillary wants her voice to be the one heard from sea to shining sea, instead of just one in a chamber of a hundred.
She is an egotistical, overzealous and power-hungry demagogue who thinks she has all the right answers to our problems and possesses the cures to the ills of our nation.
Anyone who says, “I have so many opportunities for this country,” is obviously stuck on themselves and their own ideas. She has no interest in the ideas of others; especially opposing views. She believes she alone can save the country from itself. History’s most infamous demagogues all thought the same thing.
The moral of this story is, if you want to give a power-monger what she wants most, then go ahead and vote for Hillary. You’ll receive the thanks of a grateful zealot.
