I would disagree with that. Bill more or less ignored the world's turbulation, it wasn't "settled down."

Those alliances, those personal friends that she could count on to advice her, could possibly be the worst people to lean on.

The argument is about experience, it is undeniable that Hillary has more to draw from.

It scares me that the day Hillary gets elected* she'll install her own army of minions to execute her will. I'd prefer Obama gets elected and he'll bumble his way through a few months before he gets things going.
