Clinton Endorsed by former Bush Administration Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense

Hillary Clinton received the endorsement of James Clad, the former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for President George W. Bush. In a statement, he called on Republicans and Democrats alike to recognize the important of the election and the implications on national security it could have. A copy of Clad’s statement is below.

“Secretary Clinton has demonstrated her skills as Secretary of State, especially but by no means exclusively in helping other Asian countries counter Chinese bullying in the western Pacific.

For Republicans and Democrats alike, everything in national security requires clarity and steadiness, whether managing nuclear weapons or balancing great power rivalries. Never losing sight of the national interest is key – a discipline which Secretary Clinton possesses in full measure.

Our adversaries must never hear flippancy or ignorance in America’s voice. They should never take satisfaction from an incompetent president. Giving an incoherent amateur the keys to the White House this November will doom us to second or third class status.

In my career, I’ve seen close-up what happens when American reliability falters. It’s not pretty, for us or for the world. There is no choice: In razor sharp contrast to her opponent, Secretary Clinton is ready, steady and prepared. With a proven preference for bipartisanship, she must win this election.”

We need you.” Videos from today’s events will be posted when/if available.

Several fundraisers were held today on behalf of Hillary for America. The first was an event at the home of Bob and Liz Pozen in Boston, Massachusetts.

Clinton Takes part in Independence Day Parade

Hillary Rodham Clinton remained in New Hampshire on Saturday and celebrated Independence Day by taking part in a parade in Gorham, where she spoke with a number of people who turned out for the parade. Clinton then attended an organizing party in Glen, where she spoke about foreign policy. Her primary concern is China. She accused Beijing of hacking government information and expressed her concern about the growth of China’s military power in the Pacific.

Clinton also talked about Russia and the fact that the United States needs to continue engaging with President Vladimir Putin to better understand his intentions. She also addressed the nuclear deal with Iran that is still far from complete. Clinton warned that if a deal was not made, “Iran’s aggressiveness will not end.”

This coming week, Clinton is scheduled to return to Iowa. Her cross-country travel schedule is expected to continue to be aggressive as she continues to layout her campaign platform. Follow the campaign on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
