Need leader without this sordid past

Because Hillary Clinton blundered her way through the State Department, I feel that she in not capable of being our president.

Her biggest blunder was Benghazi where our Ambassador was sent to sign a weapons sale in poorly defended Benghazi on Sept. 11 of all dates. How poorly defended? When warning shots were fired at the compound, the hired State Department armed guards dropped their weapons and ammunition and ran out of the compound leaving three brave men to hold off the attack until they died.

When President Obama and Hillary tried to hide that blunder by saying it was a mob angry about a video, they lied to the American people, the UN and the world in general. That lie reduced their stature among world leaders.

When our president warned Assad not cross a red line, Assad did step over the line. Our president did not back his threats of retaliation and his stature fell even more. Our country has lost our position of leadership.

We need a person in the White House that is not connected to the sordid past.
