Senator Clinton has the qualities of steely determination, moral courage and self confidence that will enable her to make a good settlement the basis of our withdrawal from Iraq.

Fifth, Senator Clinton has the strategic vision to enhance our position on the Gulf.  Like President GHW Bush, Senator Clinton is a cold-eyed realist who understands power and how to motivate the powerful.

She will be able to broker the best possible deal, but more importantly, she will be able to make it work. 

Senator Clinton cast a vote in 02 that retained the President's power and flexibility in foreign affairs.

 

 She has consistently and powerfully opposed President GW Bush's abuse of that power. 

 

She has refused to be buffaloed by the elements of her own party who cannot understand that we have enemies and that we must deal with them, often harshly.

She also has shown the moral stature and strength not to be seduced by the power of Pentagon and will not recklessly involve us in military adventures.
