Hillary Clinton Attacks Big Pharma

     Donald Trump's style was best referred to by one of his campaign managers as that of a counter puncher.  I recently saw a speech in which he said that all Hillary has going for her is "the woman card", "that's it!"  Well, I'd like to relate some of my thoughts to what Trump has hit upon.

Hillary Clinton is not a new face in politics.  She held the position of First Lady for eight, long, oppressive years.  But, now she seeks to become President and place Bill Clinton in the position of First Man.

If you look at Hillary's whole career, one universal theme stands out--a reach to hold onto and extend political power.  In the campaign of her husband, before his Presidency, all of the women who had had affairs in their marriage were treated by this "woman card" holder as a threat to the only thing Hillary was seeking--political power.  As President, Bill Clinton continued to dance the "Momba #5"--having multiple affairs--most of which were never proved.  But, did Hillary move in to defend her turf?  No.  Her political instinct was to hide it. Then, the Monica Lewinsky bombshell exploded; and the investigation dragged on--only to finally peter out with Bill Clinton as a somewhat diminished power figure.  Even when it was all over, did Hillary as a woman speak out?  No.

So, what does all this mean?  Is Hillary simply blind to the clandestine activities of her husband?  She is not.  She knows exactly what has gone on, continues to go on, and will keep going on if Bill becomes First Man.  Instead of naming Hillary's unique asset as "the woman card", it is more accurate to call it "the political animal card".
