English Is A Second Language For Hillary Clinton

by | 27th, July 2007

HILLARY Clinton speaks. In accents. And when Hillary speaks, we listen:

Pretending is what a candidate has to do when competing against someone who never makes a mistake that an opponent can capitalize on. Clinton always does her homework. She aces every exam. If there were erasers, she’d clap them.

When the camera turned to her, the senator from New York said of the senator from Illinois, “I admire and like very much Barack”, proving that English can be a second language for someone born in Chicago who graduated from Yale Law School.

She absolutely doesn’t admire and like very much Barack. Clinton can say the opposite of what she feels with total conviction and be admired for coming up with it. Pulling off inauthenticity is just another way of seeming presidential.
