HOUSTON: Some thoughts in defending Hillary Clinton after the election

HOUSTON: Some thoughts in defending Hillary Clinton after the election

By Debra Houston, contributing columnist | Let’s start this by defending Mrs. Clinton a bit. Her year to run for president was 2008. She was younger and prettier, less caustic and healthier. Her record as New York senator was positive. She didn’t have the baggage that serving as secretary of state brought her. The Dems decided they didn’t want her so they threw her out like old bathwater. Not unlike the way they threw out Bernie Sanders this time.

BRACK: Our endorsement for the presidency of the United States

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | The Bible speaks to us on many present-day matters. Take a look at the first four verses from Psalms 36 (RSV):

I have a message from God in my heart

concerning the sinfulness of the wicked:

There is no fear of God before their eyes.

In their own eyes they flatter themselves

too much to detect or hate their sin.

The words of their mouths are wicked and deceitful;

FOCUS: Does our nation want a leader who is a bully and a con artist?

By Alvin Leaphart, Jesup, Ga. | My grandmother, Florence Gibbs, a former United States Congressman, taught me “Noblesse oblige,” a French phrase meaning “nobility obliges.” It is the concept that nobility extends beyond mere entitlements and requires the person who holds such status to fulfill social responsibilities, particularly in leadership roles. She fervently believed that this applied to everyone in government, from the bottom to the top.

HOUSTON: Continues conversation concerning whether Mrs. Clinton is progressive

TUGGLE: Progressivism and checking beyond the edges in the Trump arena

By Hoyt Tuggle | This is in response to Debra Houston. It is history and the current political situation from a different perspective.

Progressivism has been a significant component of the Democratic Party since Woodrow Wilson. This division within the Democratic Party has been pretty much an ongoing battle except for the FDR years. In modern times it surfaced between Jimmy Carter and the Democratic establishment. It accounted for as much of his failures as did anything.
