The Candidates' Public Disservice On Trade
by A. Barton Hinkle. Almost three-fifths of Americans recognize
that international trade offers the country an opportunity to expand
the economy; only 34 percent see it as a threat. Unfortunately, the
leading presidential contenders are doing their best to change that. Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have been spouting a ... MOREHard Times For The Nixon Of The Democrats
by Wesley Pruden. The wheel that goes around comes around, as life teaches us all, even Hillary Clinton. She was 27, a reckless and ambitious lawyer for the House Judiciary Committee, working to impeach Richard Nixon. She couldn’t imagine that she would one day be the Nixon of the Democrats, a reckless and ambitious presidential candidate ... MOREJ.D. Tuccille: Voting Third Party Isn’t Just A Serious Choice
It’s THE serious choice. This year, the likely presidential candidates of the major political
parties are two of the less savory individuals ever to run for office in
a country whose Wikipedia entry doesn't feature periods of military
rule. The Republicans seem poised to give us a crony capitalist who admires authoritarian foreign governments, views ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: What If The FBI Is Onto Hillary Clinton?
And the Democrats are not. What if Hillary Clinton is in legal hot water and she knows it but won't admit it? What if she has decided to go on the offensive and make her case that she did nothing unlawful with her emails that contained state secrets? What if the essence of her defense is that other secretaries of state used non-secure email devices ... MOREThomas Sowell: Last Chance for America? Part II
Last Chance for America? Part I. The worst political blunder of all time, according to scientist Freeman Dyson, was the decision of the emperor of China in 1433 to cut off his country from the outside world. In the wake of that decision, China lost its position in the forefront of human achievements and fell behind, over the centuries, to become a ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Hillary Clinton's False Hopes
The indictment of the nominee. Surely, Hillary Clinton hopes for the happy conclusion to the maddening string of primaries and caucuses that have exhausted her. Surely, she hopes to be the presidential nominee of the Democratic Party this year. And surely, she hopes to be elected president. These hopes are realistic probabilities in her own ... MOREWalter E Williams: What Is The Fair Share Of Taxes?
Politicians exploiting the ignorant. Presidential hopefuls Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders, along with President Obama, say they want high-income earners, otherwise known as the rich, to pay their fair share of income taxes. None of these people, as well as the uninformed in the media and our campus intellectual elites, will say precisely ... MOREThomas Sowell: Hillary’s Paranoid Identity Politics
Serving scare tactics to black folks. Amid all the media analyses of the prospects of each of the candidates in both political parties, there is remarkably little discussion of the validity — or lack of validity — of the arguments these candidates are using. It is as if what matters this election year is the fate of a relative handful of people — currently seven ... MOREBarry Farber: America The Humiliated
A tribute to our Secretaries of State. In the mid-1930s, before TV, there was a popular radio talent show called “The Major Bowes Amateur Hour.” The winners were treated well, and so were most of the losers. But when a losing singer or comic or tap dancer was really bad he was treated in a way that defies belief in today’s more civilized society. ... MORE
George Will: Donald Trump Relishes Wrecking The GOP
With friends like this, who needs Democrats? Lyndon Johnson simply was exasperated. Barack Obama's mischief was methodical. Four days before the 1966 congressional elections, Johnson, asked about criticism from Richard Nixon, testily responded: "I do not want to get into a debate .?.?. with a chronic campaigner like Mr. Nixon." ... MOREAt Least 1,730 Clinton Emails Contain Classified Material
by Anita Kumar. The campaign is gaining steam. At least 1,730 emails that Hillary Clinton sent or received
contained classified material, according to the State Department’s
latest update from its ongoing review of more than 30,000 emails. The State Department released a new batch of 1,116 pages of Clinton’s emails
Friday evening in response ... MOREWalter E Williams: Clinton And Sanders And Progressivism
The same Constitutional contempt as their predecessors. Presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders seek to claim the "progressive" mantle. Both claim the other is not a true progressive. Clinton teased Sanders as being the "self-proclaimed gatekeeper for progressivism." Bernie Sanders said that Hillary ... MOREEmails Reveal Press Literally Taking Orders From Hillary
by Jeff Blake. The emails were obtained by Gawker
as part of a large Freedom of Information Act request it made back in
2012. They show a 2009 exchange between Marc Ambinder, then-politics
editor of The Atlantic, and Philippe Reines, a close assistant and
adviser to Clinton during her days as Secretary of State. Ambinder asked Reines for ... MOREObama May Be Ensnared In The Clinton Email Scandal
by Jonathan F. Keller. Perhaps President Obama’s involvement is the reason that the FBI has not yet referred charges to the Justice Department in the Hillary Clinton email case. It may be metastasizing so quickly and so dangerously that not only are agents and lawyers within the agency having trouble keeping up with new evidence of wrongdoing, but that ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Sources, Methods And Lives
What classified info did Hillary compromise? This has not been a good week for Hillary Clinton. She prevailed over Sen. Bernie Sanders in the Iowa Democratic presidential caucuses by less than four tenths of one percent of all votes cast, after having led him in polls in Iowa at one time by 40 percentage points. In her statement to supporters, ... MOREHail To The Censor! Hillary's Long War On Free Speech
by Matt Welch. On December 6, after delivering an address about Israeli-American relations at the Brookings Institution's Saban Forum, Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton was asked how she would deal simultaneously with the bloody dictatorship of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the terrorist menace of ISIS. After spending ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Hillary Clinton's Nightmare
What if the FBI cannot be handled? Hillary Clinton's nightmare is not the sudden resurgence of Bernie Sanders. It is the fidelity to the rule of law of the FBI. The recent revelations of the receipt by Clinton of a Special Access Program email, as well as cut and pasted summaries of state secrets on her server and on her BlackBerry nearly ... MORE
