To the Editor:
Re “Benghazi Panel Engages Clinton in Tense Session” (front page, Oct. 23):
Kudos to the select House committee on Benghazi! The committee gave Hillary Rodham Clinton an unparalleled opportunity to present herself to the nation.
Faced with a panel of hostile interrogators, she displayed qualities essential to a successful president in these times: thorough command of the facts and the ability to remain composed and focused in the face of sustained, unrelenting attacks. These are qualities that the next American president must have in dealing with a fractious Congress, a hostile Russia, a bullying China and a chaotic Middle East.
Would that each of the other presidential aspirants also had to undergo 11 hours of such hostile interrogation rather than the comfortable superficiality of the debates.
