In what I think is a powerful New York Times op-ed, former C.I.A. Chief, 33 year CIA veteran, and someone who was at George W. Bush's side on 9-11 and at President Obama's side when Osama Bin Laden was killed, strongly endorses Hillary Clinton for President of the United States.
He has never been a registerred Republican or Democrat and has never endorsed a candidate until now:
"Two strongly held beliefs have brought me to this decision. First, Mrs. Clinton is highly qualified to be commander in chief. I trust she will deliver on the most important duty of a president — keeping our nation safe. Second, Donald J. Trump is not only unqualified for the job, but he may well pose a threat to our national security."
"Mrs. Clinton was an early advocate of the raid that brought Bin Laden to justice, in opposition to some of her most important colleagues on the National Security Council. During the early debates about how we should respond to the Syrian civil war, she was a strong proponent of a more aggressive approach, one that might have prevented the Islamic State from gaining a foothold in Syria."
"I never saw her bring politics into the Situation Room. In fact, I saw the opposite. When some wanted to delay the Bin Laden raid by one day because the White House Correspondents Dinner might be disrupted, she said, 'Screw the White House Correspondents Dinner.'"
I don't see how there is any choice for a rational voter in this election. Hillary is a great candidate. Experienced and ready to lead. Also...Morell doesn't seem so worried about the email issue (that's for our resident classified document "expert", Aloha ).
