To the Editor:
I am sick and tired of naysayers like David Brooks who are not sufficiently inspired, uplifted or moved by Hillary Clinton. She is being held to a totally different standard than that applied to any other candidate—in this or any other presidential contest. If she articulates specific policies or proposals, she is a “policy wonk.” If she has the inner strength to admit mistakes (unlike her opponent), she is untrustworthy.
The woman has a wealth of experience, sound judgment, international respect and an incredible work ethic. She has articulated a vision of a more fair, just and inclusive society, and has given the specifics of how to achieve it.
David Brooks and his holier-than-thou ilk are not only unfair in their assessment of her, but they also act as if they are unaware of the consequences of this dismissive, condescending portrayal, which is to actively encourage those who will either sit this election out or vote for a third-party candidate.

Note from KBJ: Hillary Clinton is the most corrupt person ever to run for president.
