She would approach US-Russian relations and US-Chinese relations far differently to neocons. She is more interested in diplomatic relations than many republicans. With that said - she is probably as conservative as Democrats get. Slow on social progress, she was dragged into supporting Gay Marriage pretty late, her vote on Iraq, her praises of Henry Kissinger, she was sounds like a moderate Republican when she speaks on Iran and Cuba, her corporatism and ties to Wall Street. She says President Obama was wrong not to launch missile strikes on Syria in 2013, she pushed hard for the overthrow of Qadaffi in 2011, she supported the coup government in Honduras in 2009, she has backed escalation and prolongation of war in Afghanistan, she does not hesitate to back the use of drones for targeted killing, she has advocated for arming fighters in Syria, she has the financial support of the arms makers and many of their foreign customers, she waived restrictions at the State Department on selling weapons to Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Qatar, she has consistently backed the military initiatives of Israel. That's why Neocon groups where holding campaign fundraisers for Clinton during the election rather than Trump: http://dailycaller.com/2016/06/24/neocon-robert-kagan-set-to-hold-major-fundraiser-for-hillary-clinton/ I wouldn't go as far as saying she is a Republican or Neocon, but she isn't that far off. She would be a 'progressive' Republican if she ran Republican - but she is a pretty conservative Democrat now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donald Trump ran as a Republican. Hillary could do it too. Propagandistic, inaccurate terminology. Try using 'restrictive gun laws' instead. Nah, not even close. Just for the simple fact that she is pro-choice, makes her a no go for a Republican. Hillary has been a Democrat for fifty years, she isn't going to run as a Republican. Trump is nothing really, he is whatever he needs to be to get attention at the time and to meet his wants. He doesn't have a loyalty to anyone or anything other than himself, like all raging narcissists. No, I will not "try" to use any of your delusional words. They were common sense gun laws.

Hillary is one of the most conservative Democrats, Jimm Webb is in that category too. ??? Yeah I did my research on Trump - i'm constantly criticising him and have been doing so since he announced his run It's just an interesting statement from a respected and well known Republican It also says a lot about the conventional thinking about foreign policy that the U.S has had since Reagan. Establishment Democrats and Republicans hold a lot of the same ideas about foreign policy. 'conventional wisdom' that isn't often challenged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
