Clinton and Benghazi - Clinton Era

Guardian: Reports on the appearance of Hillary Clinton before the House Committee on Benghazi, the article notes the following, " Hillary Clinton faces a defining moment in her presidential campaign on Thursday as a long-scheduled appearance in Congress before the House select committee on Benghazi committee presents an opportunity for her to vanquish her fiercest critics, while also giving them a chance to finally show if there is substance behind their complaints. "

Lets Get Real:

This is the final hurdle for Hillary Clinton, if she can spin that the committee is political and there is no there there, then she will have a clear run for the nomination and the Presidency.   This blog expects the Democrats on the Committee to muddy the waters, and frame it as the Republicans against HRC.    In less there is damaging information to come out, the Committee will be shown to be political.   Lets be clear, this blog does not like HRC, does not trust her, thinks she is a bad campaigner, and has issues with the truth and being honest, but of the candidates for President she is the best, and she is not Trump or Carson, and one can postulate she will be more of a hawk in the Oval than President Obama.   Thus after tomorrow more visits to Iowa and NH, the the long race to the Oval.  Lets hope Bill behaves himself. 

CIA Security Breach - Cyber War Era

Daily Mail: Reports " WikiLeaks to release CIA Director's emails just days after 'stoner high school student' hacked into John Brennan's online account "

Lets Get Real:

The US and the West has to get a grip on these security threats to High government officials, the Obama DOJ should start a quick FBI investigation of this recent hack and if they find hacker they should throw the book at him or her.   The government has to have the ability to have talks through email without every Tom, Dick and Harry having the ability to hack email accounts.   The West needs firm security, the cost of hacking government officials should be high, not just taking away someone's laptop but their freedom, yes jail time with no smart phones, time for the FBI to ACT. 

VP Joe OUT - The Start of the HRC Era

BBC News: Reports " In the end, cold political reality won out. As Mr Biden acknowledged during his speech, there just wasn't enough time to mount a successful bid for the presidency. "

Lets Get Real:

In running for the Oval Office, you need the fire in the belly, you really have want it, VP Biden left it to late, these days Presidential runs starts years before the actual year, in that time you have to raise millions if   not billions.   In Iowa and N.H you have to create a structure, then you have to do that for the other States.  At the end of the day Joe might be nice guy but he does not have the thirst for the Oval.  It should be noted that the great President, Ronald Reagan had two runs at the Oval before winning in 1981.  It is now nearly 100% that Hillary Clinton will the Democratic nomination and she will be the next President, she can not lose to Trump or Carson.   The only out for that prediction is the chance the FBI goes after her for her email servers, we shall see were that case leads the HRC campaign.
