How close can Hillary Clinton be to the Oval Office - 2016 Election

The New York Times: Reports on Hillary Clinton's less than negative reaction to the failure of the TPP, " Her comments irked some White House aides, who were still stung by the setback on Capitol Hill and frustrated that Mrs. Clinton, who once championed the president’s trade agenda, was now distancing herself from it. Over the weekend, one report on CNN documented the 45 times when Mrs. Clinton had expressed robust support for the trade pact,.. "

Lets Get Real:

IF Hillary Clinton is going to be President she can not run as Obama's third term or even a third term for Bill Clinton,  the US voter looks to the future, as the present economic state in the US is not that great.   Thus HRC will have to build a campaign around her, but she would be making a mistake IF just talks about gender issues, it does not matter if your a man or woman you are still concerned about the economic well being of the Country, you still have to meet your bills at the end of the week or month.    It seems that HRC is using the Obama playbook from 08/12, the problem is that HRC is not Obama, she is not that good on the campaign trail, if HRC was wise she would go to the right, that is were the voter is, it does not matter what the elite left thing or even the uber liberal NYT.   HRC can not win if she is running for someone else, or if she just runs as a woman. 

The Labour Leadership Fight - Post 2015 Election

The Daily Mail:Reports " Sack me if I'm no good: Labour leadership race sparks into life as Liz Kendall makes dramatic pitch to members and urges party to cast off the 'baggage' of its past  "

Lets Get Real:

This is the kind of new leader the Labour Party needs, Liz Kendal is saying if that she proves not up to the job then the Labour Party should have the ability to get rid of a poor leader.   The failure to remove Gordon Brown and Ed Miliband in their time has cost the Labour Party two general elections, it has been said that the Conservatives are more ruthless when it comes to their leaders, if a leader is poor then the Conservative replace that leader, while the Labour Party goes over a cliff with its leader.   This move by Liz Kendall could very well make her the new Labour Leader, Kendall has proven she has skills on TV and is at the centre ground of the Labour Party even on the right.    It will be interesting to see if Labour wants to win the 2020 election, if Kendall is not elected expect another general election defeat in 2020. 

NATO vs. Russia - New Cold War 11

Guardian: Reports " Nato shows its teeth to Russia with elaborate Baltic training exercise..Mock landing in Poland, just over 100 miles from Russian naval hub Kaliningrad, is an exhibition of allied strength but some say it could send a dangerous signal  "

Lets Get Real:

At least the West is showing a strong reaction to the actions of Russia in East Ukraine and the Crimea, the Russian Regime under Putin has shown the worse aspects of the old USSR.   The West has to be firm and clear with President Putin, as long as he breaks international law the West will carry on with a strong defence and also a defence of Eastern Europe against the threat from Russia.   The new Cold War has started, one just hopes that it does not get too hot in the future. 

The Demise of the Greek Economy - Greek Crisis

BBC News: Reports " Greece's central bank has warned for the first time that the country could be on a "painful course" to default and exit from both the eurozone and the EU.  "

Lets Get Real:

At last some common sense out of Athens, even the Central Bank of Greece can see the road ahead and is warning the Greek Government and people that they have to in essence do what they are told by the EU or face a drastic time if they think they can default on loans and there will be no blowback.    The Greeks are living in a fools paradise, the Greek Government is living in another reality, and that reality is starting to show the real world outside.   It is simple, Greece has to OBEY the EU and the Germans.    They could start by saying sorry for the insults on modern Germany. today's Germany is nothing like Nazi Germany.
